really think that an Advanced Spacecraft from another civilization is going to get shot down by 1948 Earthling Technology?
Since 1948 their has been NO Proof whatsoever of the Roswell Incident except, maybe some confused old people or people trying to sell a book.
You really think that US Government in 1948 is capable of keep a story such as a Crashed UFO and Alien Bodies secret from the citizen and media?
Doesn't common sense require one not to make assumptions and then debunk one's own strawman arguments?
1. Assumption One: Advanced civilizations are infallible
You've stated a premise that advanced civilizations are infallible or godlike. What is your basis for this idea? How many advanced intergalactic
civilizations have you sampled to reach that conclusion? Oh that's right....none except perhaps our own. There's a 100% probability that an alien
race is either perfect and incapable of making mistakes in both the design, construction, and operation of their technology OR they are not perfect,
capable of making mistakes, and their technology and operators may have vulnerabilities or flaws. In my opinion, I would say it's more likely that
they are capable of mistakes. After all, if they were gods, why would they need starships in the first place? Why not just snap their fingers to
move about the universe? In addition, if they were perfect Gods, they would know everything, and what would be the purpose of space exploration?
2. Assumption Two: That the alleged alien spacecraft crashed as a result of a thunderstorm
Your evidence for this idea? Nothing. You've presented none. You have also failed to present the results of your systematic study on alien
spacecrafts and their invulnerability to electromagnetic disturbances and high-voltage electricity. Please share your data. I would love to see
it.
3. Assumption Three and Four: That it was shot down by the US military and all advanced aliens would anticipate hostile natives and design their ships
to be immune from this threat because these aliens would have the same hostile psychological makeup as humans.
4. Assumption Five: Eyewitnesses whose testimony contradicts your own preconceptions are "confused" or lying. You might want to lobby for a
constitutional amendment barring the use of eyewitness testimony in a trial. This testimony is used to convict and even execute people on a daily
basis. The fact that you have disregarded testimony that you don't believe doesn't mean no proof exists. If I murder someone, burn my clothes, melt
the gun, drop the body in acid, and ensure no witnesses live to tell the story, does that mean that no murder took place? In that scenario, there
would be no evidence and no eyewitness testimony of the crime, making that murder even less likely, in your opinion, than Alien Contact, which you
have stated is only supported by "confused" people's eyewitness testimony.
5. You state that it would be impossible to hide a UFO crash. It seems ironic that you and I are here discussing this topic explicitly because the
government may not have been able to successfully cover up such a crash. Your premise is like saying, "If Dinosaurs actually existed, there would be
fossils all over the world." HELLO - There are fossils all over the world!!!!
Here are other possibilities you failed to consider:
1. Pilot Error or incapacitation
2. Deliberate Crash for an infinite number of reasons, possibly to see how we would treat the occupants or utilize the technology of the ship or to
destroy the ship so that it could not fall into enemy hands/
3. Mechanical Breakdown - complex machines typically have many different components, and the failure of any individual component might lead the demise
of the machine as a whole. The ship may have been operated well beyond its manufacturers intended duration of operation or beyond designed
capabilities. The ship may have been an untested prototype.
4. Lack of fuel
5. Unpredictable combination of variables that were not anticipated during the design and testing of the craft because one or more of those variables
did not exist on the planet the device was built.
6. Shot down by an unknown third party with technology that equals or surpasses that of the aliens
7. Aliens did not expect our hostility or our atmospheric conditions
8. Aliens were not operating the craft even if it was of alien design
9. Sustained damage before getting to Earth caused by something else
10. Aliens faced with dilemma of crashing or harmlessly plowing through some form civilian or military aircraft and they chose to crash to save lives.
11. A million other reasons
Your logical reasoning skills are deeply flawed.
