I’m coming clean on Extraterrestrials, page 4

I got the feeling this is going to turn interesting and funny, interesting because of what Sleeper is gonna say, and funny because of the desperate attempts by a certain category of readers to get this thread closed.

Since we're all sitting here waiting for Sleeper to put his blog up, i might take some time to losen up a few things.

The Scientist
He is THE man, he's been to Science School, you really got to trust this guy because he knows his stuff, who else would.
But don't be affraid by his looks, we know he kinda lives in his own reality, so obsessed by his research. He's got the bad habit of neglecting his personal hygiene, but what the hell, he's sacrificing his body odour for the greater good.

The Research
So there we find our hero in his lab, mixing random chemicals or whatever in his tubes, his scalp half burnt by his last experiments. But suddenly, thanks to his scientific empiric (doing random stuff until something good comes out of it) approach, he discovers a new material/molecule/whatever !!!
He's very excited but you won't see any stain on his pants because scientists have a very low testosterone level anyway, we all know that.
But he's got to tell his friends (which are all scientists of course, due to their relationship problem with anything else).

Scientific community
Well, his friends besides beeing jealous and kinda skeptic start asking where is the proof. He just says "look, it is here, it's proof".
But the scientific community knows better : unless it gets published on Nature or Science, it's all BS.
And they want this new toy for themselves too so they ask for a demonstration and a method. If they can't reproduce it for themselves then it's all crap.

Recognition
After much efforts, our hero scientist gets his discovery confirmed by his pairs and then sets off to go get international recognition (the money, the booze and the chicks), after all this luck err %$!§ WORK.
But then he gets addicted on dope and needs more cash, so he goes find some industrials who have no clue about his stuff, but since the scientist says it, then its got to be true.

Hmmm ok, i guess there's only one word for what just happened : Sorry.
But that proof thing makes me go nuts.
I've seen so many silly stuff coming from skeptics i just don't understand.
When someone comes upfront with an account of an event, he gets asked more questions about himself than about the event itself.
I understand some might want solid credentials but it becomes silly when an account is considered more believable when it comes from a christian.
Don't laugh, I've seen it many times.
And this thing about mixing ufology with religion...
Talking about proof, where is the proof of god, the proof of the soul, the proof for parallel universes ?
Ufology, today is that, a theory, a conspiracy but its there and you can't deny it.
Just as sometimes scientists know something is possible but can't prove it *yet*, a big part of us know that there's something out there, we know it in our heart, in our guts.
I don't know, but if you skeptics can't believe there could be life out there on another planet, just look at yourself, we are the best proof that it's possible.
