Let me tell you a story.
When I was younger, I was very much interested in the whole UFO/ET phenomena. I spotted some UFOs in my younger days and such, but now that I am nearing thirty years of age, while not a skeptic, I am at peace with the subject. If they exist, they exist. If they don't,well, then they don't. No longer do I get in lengthy,drawn out arguments with people about this. Chances are, you are not going to change their mind and they are not going to change yours.. So..

Originally posted by classified materialIf you're bored with UFOs or don't like coming to ATS anymore, then just keep your trap shut. We don't want to hear your whining. I think that's the point he was trying to make.

Sneakoid, have you not looked at how gigantic this site is? There is more to discuss other than whether aliens exist or not!!
Originally posted by thesneakiodI wont stop whining. Just becuse you dont agree with me, i should leave this site?
Get real. Ufos are a small part of this wonderful website, and lets face it the whole subject is conjecture at best. So if i want to bare my grieviences on aliens/ufos then i will continue to do so. Just because im skeptical on certain
vids and what have you, it doesnt warrant me being told to shut my trap.

I agree with you thesneakiod. Its the same old conspiracy rubbish over and over again.
The people on this site accuse the government of branding them as lunatics for believing "The Truth". However come on this forum and argue against aliens and you get told to [snip] off and are then often banned - what the hell does that imply about this forum!

You see, this is the typical action that the governments expect from the young UFO researchers. This here is an excellent example on why the U.S. and world governments hire disinformation agents. Between the hoaxers, disinfo, and the same material, it is a recipe for creating a hard core skeptic. I believe that this is the product of millions of dollars going towards industrial psychologists and other social scientists that are employed by our governments and used to find out how to mindrape the people.
These scientists find a way to confuse, ridicule, and they use hoaxes for the benefit of disinformation. And to that, add the millions of people who become photographic retards when trying to get UFOs on film. End product, a skeptic.

How do we know YOU aren't a government plant? Maybe by talking about all the blatant BS that gets accepted in this forum we might be actually comming CLOSER to the truth? Do you see how being so closed minded is wrong?
Count me as one of the disenchanted and disillusioned. The reason any of us started reading forums like this is the faint hope that maybe we'd find some truth. But this forum really isn't different than anything else. There's the people trying to sell you stuff (alienagenda), the hardliners who put their hands over their ears whenever they don't like what they hear (look at Cabanman's post), and people along for the ride (myself and many others).
So I ask, why do YOU read this forum, SpeakerofTruth, trewth, Cabanman, classified material, and intrepid?

I agree, there is a massive attitude problem on this forum, not from the skeptics but from the believers.
The believers seem to think they are more intelligent than everyone else, they will not admit this of course, but in their mind they believe it. They view the skeptics as "close minded" people who will not accept their fabricated truths. A truth is provable, it is not just true because it is or because someone believes it is, you must prove it. The believers think that everything thats point against their beliefs is of course answerable to "disinfomation agents", which of course they cannot prove exist. They view the skeptics as "assembly line humans", because of course, they are mentally inferior. A prime example of this is Cabanmans "End product, a skeptic". So all skeptics are simply skeptics because of:
a)The disinfomation campaigns (which you cannot prove).
b)They are mentally inferior (which they will not attempt to prove).
c)The lack of evidence (cannot prove due to "the millions of people who become photographic retards when trying to get UFO's on film and the unprovable government coverups). - This is also a prime example of a believer believing himself to be mentally superior - "millions of retards"- Caberman.
The people who believe this seem to believe to easily, in all things, as they do in their superior intelligence. They are basically arrogant and believe people to be stupid, since of course, thats what skeptics are.
I am a skeptic, maybe you could show me some disinfomation then, or I should trust you, because of course you would know about the unseen and unprovable. I am not closed minded or stupid and am sick of being accused of being so, I have the capability to see both sides of the argument, unlike some Caberman.

Dude, what the hell are you talking about? Why do you accuse me of working for the government?
You make no sense. I wrote what I wrote so that people get an idea of how some agencies use special tactics to confuse and deter young would be UFOlogists.
I, in no way am condemnig the author of this thread. I was only using some examples on how "in my view" these agencies use such things as hoaxes, poor quality vids, agents to help confuse people.
And what do you mean look at my posts? What is wrong with them?
I can tell that you have new to these boards, don't talk about a person if you do not know them well. In this case you probably have not read the pro-ufo posts that I have made.
