That was great reading thank you for posting it.
One thing that did pique my interest was one of the accounts of an encounter with an extraterrestrial being. If on face value this account is genuine then could this be the truth and the reason why this truth is kept from us?
“Why have they never told Earth's people about this? There could be nothing more wonderful for humans than to be told that death is definitely not the end, that they have a soul!
After a pause, the alien replies: “You don’t.”
For me this is not a terrible thing. Does it really matter if we have a soul or not? What matters for me at least is living in the here and now. In a way death is just oblivion then, return to star dust, rinse, and repeat. If we have no soul and if that it the case why should it be a cause of such fear? The authorities need to get a grip if they think this is some nightmare truth people should be protected from.
Actually, I missed another angle. If we have no soul and this got into the mainstream in a believable manner then people will not fear what may come from living a bloody, nasty life where they may have poured suffering on others. Anarchism and a new age of humankind could be what the elite fear then?
S&F you gave me some things to think about ty again

The purpose of these files is to report weekly the UFO eyewitness and photo/video evidence that occurs on a daily basis around the world and in space. I personally became interested in UFOs when I was ordered to intercept one over England while flying for the US Air Force. The US Air Force under Project Blue Book investigated UFOs for more than twenty years, we continue this research. I believe God has spread life throughout the universe and UFO’s are visiting us in ever increasing numbers.
need your help. It is very time consuming and expensive to research and prepare the files. Only a few people who have enjoyed the files for years have chosen to provide a donation. I would greatly appreciate your contributions to help sustain my production, reporting and research efforts. I also want to thank everyone who has sent their UFO sightings, without your help there would be no files.

I suppose if a person wants to believe in an afterlife, but a alien says "there is none", then that person could decide to simply not agree with the alien's assessment -- just like some people today with religious leanings decide not to agree with atheists who say God does not exist.
I just don't understand why we would think that an alien would have all of the answers concerning the existence of God. Perhaps God does exist, but the alien culture we may encounter is full of atheists.

Well that is interesting because that apparently contradicts pretty much everything that has ever been reported related to aliens and their insight on the 'soul'.
Those are just a few rumored reports that discuss a "soul matrix". There are more.

why do people think that aliens would really know the "truth" about God or an afterlife any better than we humans do?

This is my first post but something immediately came to mind when I read the alien's "no soul" speech. The alien may possibly mean that they genetically created us and therefore we're just a lab experiment, intelligently created.
I mean, what kind of evidence could an alien possibly have that can disprove the existence of God?

Here is my take on it:
I believe that it is thought (logically) that any species more advanced technologically (and thus evolutionarly) than us would also have a more advanced spiritual understanding more than likely. It seems to reason that with more knowledge of the advanced physics of the Universe that you would undoubtedly find some evidence of a 'spirtual' world beyond the veil of our 4 dimensionally bound existence. Plus the longer a species is around and able to comprehend events in reality it also is logical to assume they may have aquired more knowledge about such things.

it boggles my mind that so many here have overlooked one obvious thing. forget the idea that maybe the alien is lying or trying to interrept what the alien might have met.
umm maybe the person who allegedly spoke to an alien was lying ? maybe its just possible he never spoke to an alien at all ?
i find it funny that nobody here even questioned that the person might be lying. everyone made a huuuge leap and assumed amazingly that he actually met and spoke to an alien. as if that happens daily
