The majority of credible "witnesses" used hearsay evidence, no personal experience, no verifiable statements.

And yes, at least one of the "credible witnesses" was lying.

'Insider testimony' is like slang for BS.
Even if after all these years you can only believe in it does that mean that you haven't seen evidence strong enough so it could be considered as proof?

After reading and hearing from military pilots, military radar operators, all types of military personnel from Generals to security people, from civilian pilots, civilian radar operators and astronauts to local police, I believe we have been and are currently being visited by extraterrestrial intelligent beings.
Sorry for repeating myself, but you forgot people that are mistaken or misidentified what they saw, that's not the same being "unable to distinguish fantasy from reality".
To dismiss all the reports and statements of the above mentioned individuals as liars, hoaxers, or individuals unable to distinguish fantasy from reality, is in my opinion a condemnation of the human race.
Do you mean "if we can't trust people we do not know, who can we trust?"
If we can't trust these people to be telling us the truth, who can we trust?

Are they:
A - Liars.
B - Disinfo Agents.
C - Telling the truth.
That may be true for some (few) people, but to most, real evidence is what is wanted, not some statements from people they do not know.

The problem is a thought-form block that is in place and can't be breached for most people regardless of who makes a statement.
I don't believe in god(s) either, but I don't think I would be affected by some "thought firewall" and I would ask for some kind of evidence that those words were true.
God himself could come down and say "there are trillions of others all over the galaxy" and few would believe him because of the thought form firewall that is in place on the topic.
If he isn't sure how can we be?
Ingo Swann, a very credible person, an insider, tells of personally witnessing an alien craft. He details his experience eloquently, but even he isn't sure.
Or so he says. The problem with witnesses is that some people are really:
This is an important point, he saw something alien, with a person who specifically took him to see it without telling him what he would see, and he isn't sure what it means - it didn't really make him a zealot type believer. The thought-form wall that there is nothing but the reality you have been taught is too great for even a witness to break down without issue.
No, credible witnesses exist, but we should not accept any one that presents him/herself as a witness as if it was really true, we should first try to find if the witness is credible and not accept it blindly.
There will never be witnesses that will be credible because of this because part of the thought-form wall has a line in it that reads - there are no credible witnesses.
Are you implying that those people are not capable of understanding complex ideas?
For most 911 was done by terrorists who learned to fly on crop dusters and that's it. No one will be credible enough to teach them otherwise - the idea is too complex and the thought-form blocks are too deep.
It's not, that's your understanding of what other people think about it, but you don't know if that's true or not, it's just an assumption like any other (like there is no god ).
The idea of beings other than use existing is too complex and the thought forms are too complicated to be broken down by an insider of any sort. The blocks are broken down over time, not in a moment.
Really? And how do you know that, has that happened before?
Oddly enough there are a few thought-form programs that afford any sitting US president the credibility to say "others exist....." and folks will accept it.
To me, the US president is just another guy, and, as he is a politician, I don't have any reason to see him as more credible than anyone else. Arthur C. Clark was just a writer, although one with good ideas, but not more than that. I never liked Carl Sagan, but I find him the most credible of these three.
This means, the only credible person on the other worldly topic, for most people, is the sitting US president - even Carl Sagen wouldn't work, A C Clark neither, your dad or mum couldn't break the wall.
