This is Why I Think "The Greys" Might Be a Myth...

I was on-topic and added to it, wasn't I?
I don't understand the post of my predecessor...

You don't get it do you...? In your post you just said that all orientals look the same and I take offense at that statement and I'm sure others here do too because it's racist.

He'll barely see a difference, maybe the skin color, if at all.
Now vice versa, the eastern people will think the same about europeans.
The average eye that is.
Genderbased, sure, you make differences but that's all.

Now take this a step further. You would see a specific alien race and think they look all the same while the aliens think that we do. And I'm sure there's also tall, small, fat, skinny aliens within the same race you could figure out too.

The problem is... there's no green men around us... or wait!!! Were they grey??
Damn, I messed that up...

Read over your post again strange... See above

The greys are a myth. What could possibly make any sane person think that an intelligent life form from outer space look anything like a human (i.e. 2 legs, 2 arms, a truck and a head). It is insane to think so if you use common sense and had some science classes in school. The laws of physics for such a creature may also be different. It could have evolved in a sulfer environment. Emotions and morals are as foriegn as possible to it. Communicating is probably impossible. It may be a blob or flesh os a 20 legged exoskeleton. It could be small like an ant or large like a whale. It could be so advanced that its mind is its weapon rendering humans helpless.

Or in the millisecond that we have existed in the universe, it is all a farce to beleive we are being visited without undisputable proof. Not does not include doctored video footage.

No I don't. I'm sorry if you took that offensive but you totally misread my thread.

Actually I'm feeling offended now that you didn't look deeper into it.
Nor was I racist. Plus you are directly attacking me. Then let me give you another example.

Let's take cars for this matter:
You take several cars of the same type and put them side by side. Now you won't be able to tell which one is yours unless you look for example at the color or the sign or any other detail you choose. Less details you have to choose from, the more they look the same although they are not. Each one is unique to a certain point. Same goes for people. I was just talking about the objective perception of a single person. I'm not saying that they are the same by the person they are, so that was in no way racist and I clearly don't see why you could take that as a racist comment, unless you have a problem with my origin and you connect that with the history they tought you.

In fact, I'm half spanish, a lil bit of french, a tad indian and some german and you call me a racist, nice

There a lot of people who quickly jump onto the racist wagon without really knowing what's going on. They just seem to have an impulse to defend themselves instantly. I do get a lot of what you say but just because I'm new to this forum doesn't give you a right to jump that on me. That's more racist than anything I've said earlier, don't you think?

Read over your post again strange... See above

Fine, you can make that racist if you want to. But it wasn't.
Try to read the post a more scientific way, maybe that could help

Oh and the fact that I listed my origins doesn't really make a difference, it was just to clarify how ridiculous it is to tag someone a racist which has been known for like a minute.

If I say black to afro-american people (for example), you can take the word black offensive but that doesn't change the fact that they are black in the eye of the beholder. It matters HOW you say it and in which context. And I clearly tried to show it a way with human beings. If I would have taken lifeless things instead of humans you wouldn't bark. That's odd. Because it doesn't matter.

I wouldn't say they are a myth, but I would say that the only evidence we have for them at present is (alleged) eyewitness testimony, which any lawyer or judge will tell you is extremely fallible.

There are many reasons why the Greys might be a myth but this is a bad example.
I personally believe they exist.

Take this into consideration: When Dr. Steven Greer is approached to by a person with a story of what they witness he doesn't automatically publish it.
Instead he will document it then hold the information until another person(s) totally unrelated to that person comes forward with a seperate story or incident that collaborates with that story. Also being that these people have excellent credentials makes them very credible. One would have to conclude that the story has some sort of truth.

They could be biological machines, or clones. Their exterior also could be a suit, like our astronauts and space suits.

That's what I have read too.

Aliens aren't anything new, they have been in our history since the earliest of drawings and literature. I imagine there must be hundreds if not thousands of fraudulent cases which don't help clarify things but you'll always get people like that.

I don't see what's so hard to believe about it anyway. What's the concept that people can't grasp? That we are not alone in the universe, or that a biological race could be more intelligent than our own? That's human arrogance for you I guess!

With so many genuine people making so many claims of sightings etc across the world, there has to be something in it.

The ancient astronaut theory is an interesting one....check it out on wikipedia and look at the Old Testament....

Who knows what kind of evolution/history they had. They may come from so far away that it's impossible to know.

Besides, who said humans are advanced beings?

Good point, some have theorized this is a prison planet. If so there you go, what better warden's aides than the greys?

Yes, I have read up on this sort of thing as it fascinates me. The theories put forward by Zecharia Sitchin are more plausible than the theories of human origins drummed into us as kids at school. Lets face it, it's a bit of a flawed theory to say we simply evolved as Darwin suggested. Too many things along the way suggest genetic engineering. Look at Egyptian technology for a start, it came from nowhere and then, disappeared to nowhere, we couldn't construct a similar monument today, 10,000 years later.

These people have done tons of research and their theories are actually quite similar, they don't just wake up one morning and come to their conclusions lightly.

I guess we will never know the truth, not in our lifetime, the world has become such an ordered society based on religious systems and other belief systems that, the truth ( whatever that may be ) would do far far more damage than good.

I think the most interesting things are the old stories from ancient civilizations, referring to flying things. Without our modern words of rockets, bombs, etc. so they described them as chariots or just machines.....really interesting reads.

People say that Spaceships have shown up in several hundred year old paintings... And they say that the Pyramids were built by them as well. So, okay, if Aliens really existed and their technology is really all that great, after hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of years wouldn't they have invented something other than the same old tired flying saucer to fly around in by now?

Using that logic, wouldn't we have gotten something better than wheels to cruise around on by now? Or why are we still making v-shaped hulls? Answer: some designs are just that classic.

Boats, planes and cars don't really change through time. No one would build a cross shaped ship, they stick the tried and true design. What if the aliens think of thier interplanetary vehicles in the same way?

In the book FLYING SAUCERS - SERIOUS BUSINESS, by Frank Edwards (1966), there is statistical data referring to the numbers of sightings of certain kinds of objects in the sky in the last couple centuries. I don't know how accurate this research was, but it explains that before the time of WWI, many sightings had to do with a slow moving, "cigar-shaped" craft, with lights and windows on it. From then on until around the time of WWII, the number of sightings of any kind of craft dropped dramatically. During the 1940s, sightings of fast moving lights and silver disc-shaped objects were on the rise.

This could be explained by the changes in culture that a "World War" caused, also simply by the fact that around the time of WWI, people got used to seeing objects in the sky - airplanes - so they stopped reporting things they saw up there.

Ok, assuming that the Greys exist, I think some of the best theories given so far as to why they all look the same are that they are robotic, they are clones, or that they are some sort of intelligent bug... sort of like worker bees.

As for the Greys being interdimensional beings, I don't see how anyone could really know that for sure. Actually, I don't see how anyone could really know anything about the Greys for sure.

I still think other Earth-like planets would have life similar to life here on Earth. Different stages through the planet's life with different types of animals. Lots of insects, swimming animals, flying animals, beastly animals, reptiles, etc. Then eventually one of those species of animals evolves into an intelligent species, just like we supposedly did from mammals here.

I understand there could be crazy life out there that we don't even understand, like extremophiles on hot gaseous planets... but I'm talking about Earth-like planets that have water and land and are in the habitable zone of their solar system.
