Let me understand the OP, you are 25 and have taken engineering and science in college.....so with that, you claim there are no UFOs. Gotcha, well, first a UFO is an Unidentified Flying Object, not an alien....Considering you are using logic, well, you have to use the acronyms definition.
Second, being much older than you and attaining my engineering degree from the very first engineering institution in the country....I would say that I'm more open to the possibility of extraterrestrial life now than when i was your age, almost two decades ago. The more I learn of the science, world, and universe, the more I find it an absolute impossibility that there isn't life other life out there.
Third, having maintained a top secret security clearance at your age, it is quite easy to keep a secret with a group given the right hiring, logic, mission, cause, threats and pressures or just old fashioned drinking the coolaid. Don't be so quick to think a group of people can't keep a secret, could shock you with what my lowly butt knows and I was just an average army grunt. Funny thing, I question the official story more now because i saw what went on behind the scenes that wasn't being reported.....
25, you are so young you don't even know how young you are and how much life you have to live and experience. The moment you experience something that absolutely blows your mind and is explainable in your own head will change you to being a bit more open minded.

"A definitive end to alien/ufo conspiracy theories is near...here's why."
You want one definitive reason the conspiracies might end? Because not only the aliens and the conspirators are real, but because they will soon takeover this planet [Earth]. Aliens are not real and this is impossible you say. Maybe - but if these ETs are even only a fraction as
smart and advanced as some of their apparent flying and observable craft indicate, then they could infiltrate and control this planet with few humans ever knowing what is going on. Enjoy your computer, smart phone and the internet and don't ever ask who is really in control
- maybe you don't want to know. Ignorance is bliss. And you thought the NSA spying was what you had to worry about? - Who [or what] do you think controls the NSA ?

You know that people are called "believers" because all of it is basically based only on faith that they are really among us, faith just like every religion. When they come out of the sky, shadows, closets we will all agree that they are real, but until then we need get at least something, dare I say it, actually alien in nature to take all of this from a faith based belief to reality.
My biggest question is why? Why do they need to stay in the shadows? If they been here since forever, why would they not be openly intertwined with us for a millennia? It must be because of their Prime Directive.... In any case with their advancement there is absolutely no reason that they would not be "known" to all for an extremely long time, well before our industrial age.

Faith? No not quite. More of an analytical mind set that attempts to read between the lines.
Think about it before you answer - If they try to communicate directly and show their superiority man's psyche will not be able to handle it - Some say man is ready for 'disclosure'; They say people are ready for it - don't bet on it - Man is far from ready - Man must first create a state of civilization on a world wide basis;
Until then maybe they must maintain the so-called 'prime directive' of non- interference with primitive races.

Great, so you got a TS as a grunt....and you can keep a secret...whoopee. On the other side, NO, people can not keep secrets... His point is basically that all this spirals off into convoluted directions where 100,000s maybe millions of people, ALL need to keep MANY secrets secret, to their grave....not going to happen.

Instead we have Government denials, no mass sightings and 1 billion people with cameras catching nothing that suggests intelligently designed craft.
I can't think of an equivalent event to compare this against....given the number of reports about UFO's, if they are real they are seemingly rare but maybe we can glibly suggest they are about as rare as a wild Florida Panther ( exists but most people haven't seen one)

As the planet has 7 billion with cameras and instant messaging and high end electronics that makes equipment in the 80s look like stone age tools we still do not have anything and it seems we have less and less now.

He is, but at least he is a skeptic not afraid to look at the evidence.
In the prior video I posted he admits to spending a lot of time looking at satellite images of UFOS.
I would rather have an open minded skeptic then a close minded one.

The problem is people do not realize what disclosure would mean. Try a minimum of the world as we know, would dissolve before our eyes.
