"You cannot prove that God does not exist, so He does."
I am not directing this at you mwm1331, or directly at anyone else. This is a classical philosophical debate and will only lead to further
bloodletting. Please leave it alone as it doesn�t have a direct influence on proof of anything.
When I originally made this post I avoided the topic of extraterrestrials and abduction. The author of the article used the people who have experience
abductions to describe an air of total insanity toward all of what many know first hand to be fact. The article is a wide criticism involving
everyone with little research undertaken by the author. Undoubtedly, some information could be seen as being accountable to people a few pages short
of a novel, and the author uses this to ridicule and mock.
I think that the title is true in the sense of �Credible UFO witnesses (are) not sufficient proof
of extraterrestrials.� Using witnesses alone
in the quest to prove aliens being here as factual is not enough evidence. However, all of the sightings do prove a certain burden of evidence.
Maybe enough evidence is available to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that there are craft of unknown origins flying around our sky. But to use the
number of witnesses/abductees who have come to know their involvement in this phenomenon by a certain level of mental anguish will be continually
admonished as the witnesses will be viewed as insane. (Conceivably)* if you were to take into court as a class action suit (with)* all of these
witnesses, and claim the burden of proof is held in government top secret documents you might stand a chance (of obtaining a fragment of
real
information)*, but I doubt it. (Seriously, the lawyers rule the world in this manor.)*
However, many have seen a technological marvel. Technology of such progression that the question of EBE involvement should not be overlooked.
Especially knowing the fact that governments worldwide make no claim at all to these UFO.
