Maybe if you bothered to research some abductions, you would understand the aliens DO always manipulate memories and hide the event deep in their head. Conscious memories of abductions are dangerous because they are almost certainly tainted with screen memories and confabulation. That's not to say many abductees can't remember fragments of their experience, it's just safer and easier to uncover the whole event under hypnosis.
I'm criticizing Carol for trying to tell them how to do their job when she's not even a psychiatrist/psychologists.
The simple facts are, if you believe in abductions (which a vast amount of qualified psychologists actually do), then you'd have to be blind to not see the trend of reproductive related experiments taking place on the abductees. Jacobs has simply reached the natural conclusion they are carrying out some sort of hybrid program, and I would fully agree.

How do you know any of this? There's about 5 people following the thread and they'd appreciate sources.
How many times have you heard that, of aliens staring into peoples eyes and/or talking to them telepathically? I think it's almost certain if abductions are real, the aliens are at least smart enough to hide the event from the persons conscious mind.
Than the first one leans forward and over my face and looks deep into my eyes as I look back into its eyes. I hear a voice in my head as if some one speaks but not this which is in front of me. I hear "You are a by product of a botched abortion". I look up to the ceiling and back into its eyes and say nothing as it continues to gaze into my eyes.

Missing time is common amongst almost all abductions, it is clear indicator conscious memories have been purposely hidden or removed from a persons mind. This person also talks about typical Greys and floating through walls, and that this happened since he can remember. I would say he is a real abductee.
This normally happened at night and i would miss some time.

Ok, "vast" was a bad word to use, but there are some. I recently learnt about a man called Derrel Sims. He has received certifications as a Hypnotherapist, a Master Hypnotist, a Medical Hypnotherapist, a Hypno-anesthesia Therapist and a Master Practitioner in Neurolinguistic Programming. He was also previously in the CIA, some suspect he was involved with MK ULTRA. This thread is related to him: www.abovetopsecret.com...
A 'vast amount qualified psychologists?' I bet you can't name one qualified psychologist who's name doesn't begin with M and end in ack.
Hah, that's quite funny. Abductees can be found all around the world, I doubt your stupid "meme" theory really holds up against any sort of serious scrutiny, I'm not even going to waste me time explaining the flaws in such a pathetic and last hope effort to explain away some of these trends. Take this ATS abduction account for instance, you really think this disturbing stuff becomes some sort of meme? I don't even know what to say.
Do you know what a meme is?
These cases are so damn clear cut (she's describing two different cases there), it makes absolutely perfect sense according to everything Jacobs has said, and this women claims these abductions took place before she even started researching UFO's and Aliens, these events prompted her to start research:
the third woman took a needle and injected it into my abdomen and withdrew my eggs, so they took my eggs, when they were done , they told me that I was no longer going to have babies anymore, they said I could leave.
---
I didn't understand what I was doing there, one of them reached down and pulled a fetus still in it's sack out of me, and they showed me the baby, (okay I'll stop, I have to say that during this time i was 3 weeks late with my period, how I even got pregnant is beyond me because my husband was fixed and no stuf was getting through)

After that incident I styarted looking up aliens, and the whole abduction thing, and i realized I wasn't alone with this, many women had their babies taken from them for hybrid purposes, i was shocked, terrified and upset. I was made fun of, and ridiculed by people who didn't know me, they said for me to stop watching the x-files, and i have to admit I am not an x-file girl, i can't stand that show, in fact before this I wasn't interested in aliens at all!
Nothing really that out of the ordinary right.
about 6-8 months ago my daughter started waking up in the middle of the night screaming. it seemed like bad dreams, and probably was. then she started freaking out. in one instance she was holding her leg and told me that someone was holding it. i went by her and then she said it stopped. another time she made a screech sound and was staring into the kitchen. she said someone was in our kitchen, and she was staring at something. i thought maybe a ghost. so far, either bad dreams and or ghosts, i think.
Grey skin, black eyes, floating through walls. You people can say what ever you like, any rational person can see the truth here.
then one day she was telling me about the boy again, and how he had grabbed her hand and it made her really scared. so then it hit me, ask the right questions. so the first thing i asked her was what color skin did the boy have? she said gray. my next question was what color eyes does the boy have. she told me "all black." okay now i start to worry, because how many boys do you know with gray skin and "all black" eyes? so i asked her about the hand grabbing. she said that he grabs her hand and takes her through the wall into a "gray" (a gray/silver ship?) she says "gray" for both gray and silver when describing cars, FYI. then i drew four pictures. one was a dog's head, one was a little boy's face, one was a typical grey's face, and the last was a telletubby face. i asked if any of them looked like the "boy" and right away she looked at the grey and then a couple seconds pointed at it and said "there's boy." okay so that was enough, i could tell it was making her a bit uncomfortable.
It appears, as expected and as is normally the case, the aliens aren't just abducting the children, and I would hazard a guess the father telling this story has been abducted long before his daughter ever was. Also commonly described is the "doctor" or "specialist", he leads the operation and instructs the smaller Greys (he/she is is often described as a tall type grey) A table (probably an operation table) in the middle of the room is also very common.
she also adds that there are more than one boy, and they are holding her 1 1/2 year old brothers hand, and MINE as we all go through the wall. i asked her about where she goes. she said a room with a table and blue toys. i asked about my son and i and she says we are in a room (not sure if the same room or not) as well. i then ask about the "gray" again, trying to figure out if it is indeed a ship or not. she changes the subject and tells me that she doesnt like the boy, and that she doesnt like the "doctor" either.
He even thinks his mom is an abductee, it just goes to show they don't randomly pick people. They have a very structured system that dictates who they abduct and how often. If you are an abductee, I urge you not to have children.
on a side note, my sister and her two boys also get abducted. i believe my mom as well, but she wont talk about it. i emailed a few abduction researchers, but have not heard back yet. so anyways, there it is. i will update this thread if any new information comes along. its just a little tough because my daughter is so young. she talks pretty well for her age, and knows enough words to tell me what she has. i just wish she had the words to describe the ship. i dont want to tell her its a ship, so its tough but i will continue to work with her. anyone else have kids who talk about something like this?
When it comes to people who believe they've been abducted by space aliens, the two camps agree on only one thing: "These people are almost never psychotic," says McNally. "They're not lying. But Mack entertains a range of explanations that are farfetched at best."

Ok, fair enough. I agree he was out of line doing what he did, but once again it's hard to avoid doing crazy things when you're researching something so crazy. I know if I were in Jacobs position, and I had reached the same conclusions as him, I would be quite scared of my life possibly being taken by these aliens. I mean, they've done all this in the utmost of secrecy for so long, and along comes people like Jacobs to piece together all the bits of information from hundreds of abductees. That's a huge threat to their operations, and I find it completely understandable that he acted out on that fear at one point. However, I still don't dismiss all his other work and his conclusions simply because of that, every business has that unsatisfied customer. He is clearly onto something, in my opinion at least.
I'm criticizing his methodology.
Originally posted by annella.the abductees who believe the alien abductors have an evil agenda, have been returned. They may ( and should) feel violated, and Im sorry they had that experience but as I said, they have been returned.
That doesn't negate the negative effect this subconscious trauma can cause people. You can paint it anyway you like, their methods of secrecy are suspect at minimum.

I actually did format the pasted text quite a bit. I separated all the paragraphs as they should be, and I applied bolding to the headings. It is formatted essentially the same as in the book so I'm not sure what you're talking about.
Firstly, when you copied and pasted the text, it came out in a very difficult to read format. When I've run into this problem, in posting on other forums, I took the time to edit it by hand to make it more readable. It would be an appreciated courtesy if you would do so in the future.
I completely agree there are "good" and "bad" aliens, the Greys are neutral if anything IMO. The hybrids however, posses human emotion, they can be nice or evil. I wouldn't doubt the Government has secret craft some what similar to UFO's (but a lot less advanced), and I guess they could be abducting people. A considerable amount of abductees do describe military type clothing, so I guess it's plausible. These would be one-time random abductions IMO, not like the Greys. As for some UFO's being living organisms, I also believe there's a good chance you're correct on that, but once again there's not enough info for me to make a conclusion.
I think that there are likely many different kinds of aliens, with some being evil, some neutral, and some good. I also think the US government fakes aliens, UFOs and abductions for their own nefarious purposes. I believe some UFOs are organisms, like animals.
The air force can't lay one finger on an alien craft, maybe in their wildest dreams it's possible. I don't doubt they may have achieved it once or twice (possibly resulting in cases like Roswell), but the aliens wouldn't be fooled thrice that easily.
Some of them wish to help us, but they cannot as long as our Air Force keeps shooting at them.
I've never really heard of them, what are they like vampire aliens or something? I'm kidding, but please don't say they are.
Now if you are talking about the Draco, I will agree that they are evil
I'm sure they can too. I would guess scars come from more intensive procedures.
Any doctor today can draw a cubic centimeter of blood without leaving a scar or a mark.
Can you expand on that, why are their methods apparently decades behind? Their procedures seem to take minutes, procedures that would take normal doctors possibly hours.
In vitro fertilization has reached a level such that the so-called genetic experiments allegedly performed aboard UFOs are ludicrous and decades behind human technology.
The ufonauts should go back to medical school.
What kind of psychologists are they, if any amateur hypnotist can readily uncover from the witness the details of an abduction that was supposed to be totally erased from his or her mind?
We have mind control drugs that ensure permanent, selective memory loss. Wouldn't smart extraterrestrials know as much?
Current Hypotheses and Abductions
The abduction phenomenon has always been more secretive than the UFO-sighting
phenomenon. Researchers investigated UFO sightings for fourteen years before they
came upon an abduction case. Another twenty-five years elapsed before they understood
that abductions were enormously widespread and the central focus of the UFO
phenomenon.
When researchers first began to investigate abductions, they assumed that an abduction
was a one-time, adult-onset event. Abductions suggested curiosity rather than
manipulation on the part of the aliens. As abductees recalled fragments of events,
researchers decided that aliens were "studying" or "experimenting" on people. The
secretive aliens were finished with their examination of Earth's flora and fauna and had
turned their attention to studying humans.
As the number of abduction reports grew, many researchers adopted the ethical
noninterference argument and assumed that aliens conducted their study in secret in order
not to disrupt the subject's life. Memories of an abduction could be so traumatic that they
would negatively interfere with the abductee's psychological well-being. In addition,
researchers assumed the aliens gave abductees posthypnotic suggestions not to remember
an event so that it would be buried in the subject's unconscious.
Other researchers hypothesized that an abductee would not remember an abduction
because the natural defenses of the human brain repressed the traumatic event. The
human mind could not cope with the impossibility and terror of an alien abduction; rather
than confronting the horrendous events, the mind buried the memories deep within it and
only allowed tiny pieces to "bleed" through. Investigators had to use hypnosis to recover
these repressed memories.
The argument that aliens operate in secrecy in order not to disrupt abductees' lives might
have merit were it not for the fact that the disruption in their lives is enormous even
without conscious recollection of their abduction experiences. If the aliens were indeed
concerned about not causing personal disruption, they would not abduct people in the
first place, or, at the very least, not so often over the course of their lives.
The hypotheses that abductees repress memories to cope with the trauma of an abduction
also have evidential problems. The mechanisms of traumatic memory repression are
highly debatable, and even if the hypothesis is true, the frequency of abductions militates
against repression in every case. There are many abduction events that are not traumatic
and they, too, are not remembered. Furthermore, researchers have uncovered no reports
of posthypnotic procedures that aliens might use to "bury" the abduction event. If these
procedures existed, researchers would be seeing them during every abduction.
Although the exact neurology is not known, it is most likely that the aliens store the
abduction events directly in the abductee's long-term memory system, bypassing shortterm
memory and preventing the triggering mechanism that allows for its reconstitution.
Hypnosis restores the trigger that allows the memories to come forth. Reshma Kamal was
told that the reason the aliens do not "erase" the memories altogether is that there are
aspects of them that must be retained by abductees for future reference. Thus, the
memories are intact, but inaccessible through normal recall.19
For years, the abduction phenomenon has lain hidden under layers of direct and indirect
protection—societal beliefs, scientific hostility, incomplete conscious recall,
confabulation in hypnotically recalled testimony, and alien-induced memory
manipulation. Unlike sightings of UFOs, there are no radar traces, photographs, films, or
videotapes. The evidence is primarily anecdotal, with an occasional artifact. Only one
thing is certain: Whatever the reason for it, the alien secrecy strategy has been
enormously successful. Most people who have had a lifetime of abduction experiences
remain unaware of what has happened to them. They would deny as lunacy any
suggestion that they were involved with the abduction phenomenon, even if they had
been abducted just hours before.
