We want to see Greer levitating, and vectoring UFOs... (perhaps at the same time???)

millerman, by hiring a professional publicist, Greer may learn that the man on the street does have power as an individual.
Greer is right to focus his efforts on people who matter, leaders, people who might actually have the power to do something. Sorry, but the opinions of people like you and kroms and torsion don't really matter in the grand scheme of things....
The only opinions that don't matter are Greer's. Especially when he makes claims of levitating and vectoring UFOs - without proof. How could any world leader take the man seriously?

Greer is now saying that MORE than one major country is stepping forward to attempt contact with Greer and CSETI....
So, we will see soon enough. But, if another year goes by and nothing happens, call me a goof.

Any footage I could possibly show you would just be immediately brushed off as a hoax or stunt or ILLUSION or magic trick, as was massively demonstrated with the five videos I did post!
So, in essence - what you are saying is that you actually believe that Blaine and Angel have mastered the technique of levitation using mind over matter?
Hmmm.
The fact is that you have a programmed, conditioned response, such that you automatically assume all such things are stunts or ILLUSIONS or magic tricks. You can't accept the possibility of levitation even when it's staring you right in the face. I could show you 1000 more videos and it wouldn't make a lick of difference.....
No, if you showed Greer levitating in a yoga position under meditation it would prove that perhaps he is on to something -
but you didn't post anything of the sort - you posted well KNOWN ILLUSIONISTS,
where the tricks they perform can be reproduced. This Illusion is called "The Balducci Levitation," and if you google it - you will realize it is not real levitation.
Astounding, astounding ignorance.
The difference between someone "really" levitating, and someone "pretending" to levitate will be.... what, exactly?
It sure is astounding - but not on OUR end. You have no clue what the difference is really??? Nice.
The difference would be using MIND OVER MATTER to achieve the goal of levitation then using your FOOT in an optical illusion.
The guy in the fifth video-----but I guess he was just "pretending to levitate" too?
Um, YES HE WAS, and EVEN SHOWS YOU HOW TO DO THE Balducci Levitation METHOD - ILLUSION!!! NOT REAL.
Please explain to me what real levitation is going to look like, if the people in those five videos were just "pretending to levitate". I really want to find a video where someone is really levitating, but I don't know how to tell the difference between someone really levitating and someone "pretending to levitate"......
Well, if you are claiming that perhaps this is Greers form of levitation (illusion), then he is in the wrong field - he should be an illusionist instead of claiming he can actually levitate. Is that what you are saying? Greer uses the Balducci Levitation Method???
You are all over the place - and it seems that you don't understand that there is the concept of MIND OVER MATTER and ILLUSION.

Nope, it would be immediately brushed off as a hoax or trick or ILLUSION and people would keep right on ridiculing him. I think that was massively demonstrated from the reaction I got when I posted those five videos.....
but you didn't post anything of the sort - you posted well KNOWN ILLUSIONISTS,
SO WHAT? Magicians and ILLUSIONISTS aren't allowed to try to levitate for real, is that what you're saying?
Well, you obviously didn't even watch the videos!
I actually specifically chose all five of those videos because in all five of them you can clearly see underneath BOTH feet, you can see BOTH FEET definitively lift up off the ground. They are NOT the Balducci Levitation.
Again, how is Criss Angel levitating two stories in the air, from building to building, using his FOOT in an optical illusion????
Please go actually watch all of the videos!
No I understand that very well, and I'm asking you, when I see a person hanging there in the air, with BOTH feet way up off the ground, how do I tell if its MIND OVER MATTER or ILLUSION? Please tell me as I really want to know!

You actually don't even know now do you? Those millions of people would be murdered in the street, and the government would maintain control. Don't start spewing stuff you have no idea of... sorry, your little free energy riot would be crushed, even with 100 million people... you just don't understand.

Wow. They have never claimed to have those powers... Don't you know what an illusionist is? Do you know what an optical illusion is?
SO WHAT? Magicians and ILLUSIONISTS aren't allowed to try to levitate for real, is that what you're saying?
HAHAHAHAHAH! Now I know what I am dealing with. Illusionists levitating for real you say? and it is not an illusion? then they wouldn't be called an illusionist then would they?
I don't know how much more I can take of this nonsensical trolling .
Do us all a favor and look the word ILLUSION up in the dictionary.

Let me answer your question with a question:

Can you remind us of how many years CSETI/Disclosure has been active up to now with nothing happening?

HOW DARE YOU CALL ME A TROLL!!!
Mods! Mods!!! Kroms is engaging in namecalling and character assassination, shouldn't he receive some warns and lose some points? It's only fair, since I have received three warns for namecalling....

Wow, look at you. I did nothing of the sort. 'nonsensical trolling' means your kind of 'babbling on' about something that doesn't make any sense, and no - I never called you a name. KNOCK THIS STUFF OFF!
Everything you stated can be performed as an illusion by a MAGICIAN (which illusionist falls UNDER that category) by using mirrors, glass and thin wire.
I am surprised at the degree to which you believe things.

ANSWER MY QUESTION RIGHT NOW kroms, or you lose this completely.
When I see a person hanging there suspended in the air, with BOTH FEET way up off the ground, and clearly not wearing any kind of harness or attached to a crane or anything like that.... HOW do I tell if it's MIND OVER MATTER or ILLUSION? WHAT does levitation due to MIND OVER MATTER look like, as opposed to levitation due to ILLUSION? What is the visual difference?

Wow, quite demanding aren't you?
Lose what? You have to be kidding everyone around here.
Ok, how about this: Chris Angel explains HOW he does his minor levitation trick:
youtube.com...
I bet that isn't good enough for you though - they guy shows you how the optical illusion is done (since he is an illusionist), but I bet you still in some strange way believe the guy can actually float around above buildings...
Magicians won't reveal their really tough tricks - and that is why they are called MAGIC TRICKS - because they are TRICKING PEOPLE.
Look at the skyline and also the line on the building closely, Hopefully you'll figure it out. Also notice they don't go above a certain angle when shooting?

Look, it is guys like you and tezzajw who are always demanding proof of Greer's claim that he levitated - so what is the point of demanding proof of levitation if you're just going to immediately brush off any and all evidence of levitation as MAGIC TRICKS or ILLUSIONS?

Imagine that cult that Greer could build for himself with a professional publicist in charge! He's already got followers who believe in levitation over illusion -

Yes, I demand proof of Greer levitating. He made the claim and to support that claim, he should prove it.
Originally posted by millerman
You don't get it tezzajw.
Trying to establish something that people are programmed to NOT believe, like vectoring UFOs, is much harder, and takes way more courage. It isn't Easy, it isn't Safe, and Greer has to do it in the face of constant badgering and ridicule.
So essentially, Greer has 1000 times more balls than guys like you and kroms, because he doesn't take the Safe and Easy way.....
Originally posted by tezzajw
Yeah, I do get it, millerman. Greer needs a professional publicist to help him sort out the mess that he has got himself into.
Wildly making claims about levitating and vectoring UFOs and not proving them would cause quite a mess, hey?
