First off I'm a believer in the whole aliens are visiting. I've had a few extremely odd experiences myself, maybe they completely normal experiences
and I'm just thinking too much about them, or maybe they were actually something paranormal, and truly strange. I like to take a more logical (see my
user name makes sense!) look at things.
I will probably will post about my experience when I feel comfortable on this site. Mines isn't as dramatic as others on this site. I posted it on
Mufon's old forums and they weren't exactly helpful, or supportive.
Anyway The point of this post is I just want to say I can understand the skeptics argument.
I think they have good reason to be skeptics.
Not one legit photo of a ET.
Not one legit photo of a alien spaceship.
Which right there is proof for a lot of people, that aliens may not be visiting.
Not only that but people are talking about the
*"Cat People"
*Star Gates
*Galactic Federation - I have done a google search for this term and 2 websites are infected with spyware. As I go through the pages of google results
one sites"about the galactic federation" page seems to be nearly word for word from a comic book or cartoon. (Its extremely hard to believe)
*Reptillians
*I have also gotten a reference about Galactic Federation from a couple of cartoons and from a few video games.
*Not to mention people on this seem to be have a "internet orgasm" over this youtube Captured alien video which is obvious CGI.
All of the above has very few physical proof.
Alot of the arguments is 100% "hear say" or "I believe."
Also there are few legitimate faces of UFOLOGY
Greer is a guy apparently went into the woods took a photo of a moth or butterfly and called it a "light beings"
enough said.
Wilcocks (as I said in another topic) is a attention whore, when people start to forget about him he comes out with a new random date while not
forgetting to remind people about updates to his website or a new book.
When his disclosure date comes closer he down plays it. I am personally surprised this guy still has an audience. How can so many people not see this
pattern? When was the last time this guy was right about anything? Yet people follow this guy.
Sure you can reply and say well there are books from astronauts, and high level former officials, I have a very good collection of UFO books. But many
of these books are speculative, lacking undebunkable material, full of he said/she said. Many full of unverifiable claims.
Another Skeptics Arguments
Many if not most personal stories (like mines) are unproveable. And those who gain enough publicity and fail Lie Detectors do not help.
If the government knew anything it would have come out by now. Rather they wanted it too or not.
I can agree with this to believe that a government can keep a secret for the past 60-70+ years and now into the age of wikileaks, hackers and no one
has been able to find ANYTHING and prove it. That is probably the most disturbing thing for believers, and one of the most convincing arguments for
skeptics.
Basically I just wanted to get that out of my brain lol.
I can understand a Skeptics argument, ufology has been/ and will continue to be really is a speculative science until someone comes across that
Legitimate Alien Signal, Photo, Video, living organism on another world, Official Announcement, etc.
I personally doubt its a fear of aliens, I think they (the skeptics) "want to know" rather as with some people have in their avatars"want to
believe".
I hope I didn't offend anyone, this is my first real seriously thought out thread. I just wanted to voice my opinion.
