Yea but what if your explanations are not rational?
Well someone should keep them honest. We are all subject to bias and every other pitfall that comes with the territory. Making up BS psychological conditions is not helpful. Providing rational arguments is helpful.

You know guys..contrary to what many of you believe of me, I am actually very objective and open to all views on this subject. I just frown upon the hostility displayed by certain debunkers and skeptics. And yes the so called "believers" can be hostile as well for no good reason...
If you can keep things civil and rational I will be happy to hear your take on things...If you look at my threads you will see I am always quick to admit when I am wrong. Nobody wants to look stupid or stuff their foot firmly in their mouth.
I know there is alot of garbage out there. Am I biased? Yes I am due to my own paranormal encounters in my life. Ive proven it to myself, but how do you prove things to others who themselves have to "see it to believe it" and haven't yet?
In there lies the root of frustration in this forum...

Fair enough and nicely put. And you know, I think, that other than some brother & sisterly(?) grouchiness, you're all right by me.

You know that Stanton Friedman, J. Allen Hynek and Jacques Vallee didn't write "Close Encounters of the Third Kind", right? Films are written by screenwriters and the ideas usually come from them although it's possible that Spielberg suggested to the screenwriter that some things be included. You do know that actors don't make up their lines, right?

You seem to have very specific information about this. What is your source?
I knew you would be curious.
Whitley Strieber in his book The Master of the Key.
Book: The Master of the Key
He said he spoke with a being, and I believe his story though of course there is no absolute truth, who told him the greatest sin a person could commit was failure to allow mankind to thrive, which is best exemplified today in the secrets that are kept by governments, religions, secret societies around the world. Some of it is ancient knowledge and some of it is recent history (911, Kennedy Assassination).
The truth would help mankind see the deception it lives in, and help them reach their full potential.
He said some have seen the light and opted for life at Leavenworth over the uncertainly as to what might happen to your soul after death if you are committing this sin.
I don't buy into the religious version of sin or religion itself, but I believe in a higher power, and just like laws on earth, ignorance is no excuse.
But hey, some people think a paycheck is more important. I admire their courage.

As far as an “organized effort to undermine the Aliens and UFOs forum?”
Who would do that BUT—as GUT would say—the Gubmint as part of an ongoing effort at misinformation towards AlienUFO phenomena…I can't see any other motivation behind such an effort, MIB’S NOTWITHSTANDING.

That book is deeply profound,the guy goes onto state that there are Aliens among us who are basically human(as there are types of Planetary templates that create different types of life based upon the elements on the planet)
These Humans/Aliens are actively working against humanity by selectively infiltrating influential positions in Science and creating disinformation to send us off on the wrong tangents in fields such as new forms of propulsion.
And the purpose is to keep us quarantined in the immediate vicinity of the Earth.
They also work to impose the Secrecy.

Gah...I was buying that a little, but I'm halfway through your Bushman thread and you're rudely hacking off heads left & right that were being both nice, level, AND supportive while all the while referencing a number of well-known mythologies as if they were gold.
