WAIT A DARN MOMENT HERE. You seem to think it rests solely on the media as to why those of us that are interested in this subject are viewed as
nutjobs?!?!
Have you read the majority of threads in this forum?!?!?!? They are bunk, and full of BS that is, quite honestly, embarrassing. The truth is that most
people are more than happy to perpetuate the stereotype that the news makes fun of because they have such an ignorant, overwhelming desire to believe
they look like complete and utter fools to the mainstream public. This very site, being the most popular, is also helping to perpetuate this
stereotype. I mean, can you imagine being a "civilian" whose interest was peaked by a news segment and stumbled across this very forum after a
simple google search? You would QUICKLY laugh your ass off and conclude that the whole subject is filled with idiots. And you blame the media for
this?
Your ignorance OVERWHELMS me.
And before anyone says "now hold on, some have had real experiences and are sharing them on this forum" Lets look at some of the FOOLISH and ABSURD
threads in THIS VERY FORUM GOING ON RIGHT NOW:.....
You know what, never mind. Go back to the main alien forum here and just read the thread titles. If that doesn't convince you, then click on some of
them. There are some threads going on right now THAT ARE ABSOLUTELY ABSURD and RIDICULOUS. Whats more absurd, is the fact that when you read them
there is no lack of ignorant folks that are actually adding to the stereotype you are complaining about through their desire to believe in the least
likely of things and their complete inability to understand that they are, in fact, the reason why Ufology is looked upon by the mainstream as the
domain of FOOLS.
Seriously, if I need to point out specific threads going on right now that are freakin' LAUGHABLE, then, quite simply, your a part of the very
problem you are whining about. Period.
Sorry to be so blunt. Most that see me post this will attack me without even understanding what it is I am even saying. Sad for them.
But to sit there and blame the media for being responsible for the complete ridicule this subject receives when "exposed to the light" is ignoring
the simple fact that the ridicule is WELL DESERVED and until this community learns to "police" itself of this UTTER TRIPE we have to understand that
this is, in fact, nothing but a waste of time even discussing it. It's entertainment for us, an outlet for mentally troubled folk, for ignorant blind
believes that know nothing about reality and those who need attention or whatever their reasons are for posting some of of the rubbish they post
Simply put, it is OUR fault this subject is laughed at. And it is our fault that it will continue to get laughed at. Read this forum to find out why I
say this.
Again, I can't stress this enough, if you read the forum and can't understand why I say this, then your a part of the problem.
