When hypnotic regression was done on Barney and Betty Hill, the person doing the regression therapy was not looking for aliens. He knew how to do the
therapy and was using it to help with the psychological problems the Hills were having. The information culled from the Hills about the alien
abduction was not tainted. They also saw the object and Barney drew it with the aliens looking out of the craft at him. Add the physical evidence and
the radar confirmation of an unknown object near the Hills at the time of the sighting and you have a very compelling case.
The problem is all the researchers are looking for aliens now. They claim to not taint the witness, but unfortunately the witness also is looking for
aliens to explain what happened to them. Regression may still get some facts, but the problem is what to believe. As stated, the persons and the
researchers are looking for aliens and alien abductions, whether it is intentional or not.
What is needed is for all the physical evidence and other witnesses to be tested and studied. Regression alone is not enough. The problem with the
people who are upset that many of the statements here call out the regression is they want to believe in the abduction phenomena. I agree it has
happened, but it is also to a lot less degree than being reported. Until the researchers look at other criteria and evidence, the abduction phenomena
will stay at a dead end. The ones asking the questions are not the bad guys, but also want the answers to what is happening. As stated many times
before, the answer may not be the one we want to here. Until we start to realize many of these claims have other answers and start to weed them out,
mainstream science will still consider this problem a laughing stock.
