again sleeper, just like your example, with proof people tend to accept the new "facts" in your/our case its alien life.
you wont convince skeptics with stories.
thats just how it is. many people want to believe, but they dont believe every word that is told either.
these examples of it happened to me just because it never happened to you doesnt make it true really dont help the cause.
just because you say something happened, and that you say its true doesnt make it so either. There are countless falsehood stories where it is claimed to be true until someone gives.
you have to face the fact that there will always be skeptics.
even physical proof wont sway some people, thats just how it is.

Everyone else lived on a planet where the sun moved around the world until a few centuries later when it became obvious-----they were wrong.
People lived on a flat planet for thousands of years----until sometime around 1492----when the earth miraculously turned somewhat round, and ships stopped falling off the edges.
It’s a tad rude and arrogant to presume to know what others have seen or experienced.
Being a skeptic is fine; presuming to know what others have seen is fine if you are a god, otherwise it’s childish arrogance.
Thousands “know” that ETs are here-----if you didn’t get the memo----that does not negate the reality for those that did.
then watch the video be discounted and debunked by skeptics and maybe we will never truely have the whole earth believeing that aliens have visted and are working on this planet it will never be a fact cause even if you convince the whole earth there will still be that 10-20 percent that wont believe.

That argument could be used on so many things. Like how much we know in physics and related sciences. With what we do know, we can say certain things are nonexistant. In 200 years, what we're so sure of now will be laughed at as idiocy.

Sleeper you are correct people are awakening(ahem) to things all of the time. Like this for example.
I beleive in U.F.O's and aliens, I just don't believe some of the stories people tell about them. You see there are all types of people in this world (attentionites, lonelies) so sitting behind a computer it is extremely hard to analyze a story told by someone.
This is why I tend not to believe some of the more-from my point of view- extraordinary stories I hear or read.
There isn't even one movie about ETs that in my experience comes close to reality----much less the truth----but that's just me.

sleeper,give me just a few general points.How would you present ETs in a movie,to make it closer to the truth you know ?
All alien moves have the same plot-----they invade earth nearly destroying it but then are destroyed by earth’s immune system.
Earth has an immune system and its them the ETs.
They are not here to enslave mankind, take over the planet because theirs is dieing or anything like that.
They are here through think and thin-----behind the scenes----they have no ego that needs feeding, they don't take bows----they quietly help move us along, however awkwardly through the illusion of time and the reality of space.
