Several on this board have turned skepticism into inquisition that borders on persecution of anyone that gets close to telling the truth, mainly because it doesn’t fit their model of reality.

The purpose of the Inquisition masters of the past as is true with the inquisition masters of today is to protect the people from the truth.
We humans are a bit egotistical and have problems swallowing the idea that we are not number one in the universe, and the leaders of technological wizardry.
Certainly there are many bogus posters on ATS but that actuality is part of the nature we call existence, in this life we have to sift through tons of dirt before discovering anything of value like diamonds, gold, or a good handle on what and why we are.
That’s what this life is all about---finding useful stuff to fill in the pieces of the puzzle. Everyone will do it at their own pace because we have all the time in the world and the universe to do it in---most will not finish their puzzle during this life time or the next, etc.
Many people waste their time living in the status quo---fool’s gold---it is plentiful and easy to find, it’s known as common knowledge---but that’s good enough for those who prefer to live in the bubble, which is easier than putting forth the effort required to fill in that big puzzle.

knowledge comes in many forms, we can teach more people to read, we can show people how to think for themselves, but we cannot force knowledge on people, knowledge can only exist when the people acquire it, and if we force it on someone, even if it is the truth (or what we suppose is the truth), that someone will see it as some forced information, not as knowledge, so that knowledge is wasted.

So you are saying that much of humanity is full of knowledge? The problem with that is that much of humanity believes we are it----some will go further and say that perhaps microbes exist somewhere in the universe.

Sorry but I don’t consider that knowledge, only status quo---people for the most part believe what their political, religious, educational leaders tell them.
It would be great if people did acquire knowledge on their own but it rarely happens that way.

One thing I have observed is, people will have to have there own expereinces to really know and understand.
We can put the word out, we just have to learn how to handle being critized, this is the way it is. I believe we have to hope for the best.
There is a lot of proof but there is always those that will claim that is not enough or it is fake.
Back in our days you know how different it was, this generation has a lot more technology and openess.
I do think trying to explain about a different reality is quite difficult.

No I don't believe you but so what? Perhaps the question you should be asking yourself is why is it so important to you that I or anyone else believe you?
Also, I should point out doing it for "free" doesn't make you any more or less credible... it just makes you less liable... however doing it anonymously means all are bets are off.
