I believe that Mack reached the correct conclusion about some abductees telling the truth, but he put too much faith in the abductors and always tried to put a spiritual spin on their activities. He couldn't seem to accept the fact that they might be doing something sinister and that's why they are keeping hidden.
" According to Daniel Sheehan, Mack's attorney, the committee's draft report “finds that it is professionally irresponsible for any academic, scholar or practicing psychiatrist to give any credence whatsoever to any personal report of a direct personal contact between a human being and an Extraterrestrial Being until after the person...has been subjected to every possible available battery of standard psychological tests which might conceivably explain the report as the product of some known form of clinical psychosis....To communicate, in any way whatsoever, to a person who has reported a ‘close encounter’ with an Extraterrestrial life form that this experience might well have been real...is professionally irresponsible.”
He came away asserting that the critters are evil spiritual entities coming from a spiritual DIMENSION.
It's obvious that they are doing some type of research, and they are manipulating our human religious tendencies to portray themselves as angelic beings in order to make the abductors feel more secure in their presence.

Well for a start I don't like to generalize the issue and see everything as "good" and "evil", the universe and the life in it isn't black and white like that. But it's important to remember that many abductees feel like the abductors were very loving and caring beings who fill them will good feelings and often befriend them. They never really do anything "evil" to the abductees besides kidnapping them and conducting weird experiments on them. It's obvious that they are doing some type of research, and they are manipulating our human religious tendencies to portray themselves as angelic beings in order to make the abductees feel more secure in their presence.
Doesn't mean they are warm and fuzzy critters out for our good . . . not by a long shot.

Now back in 1994 when a committee at Harvard investigated Mack a doctor "Budd" Relman, M.D. made this statement:
" According to Daniel Sheehan, Mack's attorney, the committee's draft report “finds that it is professionally irresponsible for any academic, scholar or practicing psychiatrist to give any credence whatsoever to any personal report of a direct personal contact between a human being and an Extraterrestrial Being until after the person...has been subjected to every possible available battery of standard psychological tests which might conceivably explain the report as the product of some known form of clinical psychosis....To communicate, in any way whatsoever, to a person who has reported a ‘close encounter’ with an Extraterrestrial life form that this experience might well have been real...is professionally irresponsible.”
If you follow that line of thinking could not the same be said to any witness to any crime or event in a court of law? Another words why should we accept anyones testimony in a trial unless he "has been subjected to every possible available battery of standard psychological tests which might conceivably explain the report as the product of some known form of clinical psychosis" - but you see the standard is only for alleged alien contact where the preconceived notion that it is impossible must be accepted - Why should this be the case?
