Many people have witnessed the strange events in the sky as well as snapped pictures and recorded videos but does anyone ever think about the purpose of a ufo. Could the other beings be here to harm us, help us or do nothing at all but study us and complete their own studies? What do you think their purpose is?

It's funny that when we humans want a soil sample, we send little robots to do it because sending an actual person is a huge unnecessary waste of resources. And presumably if you're going to send somebody to get a sample, then you're going to bring those people back, so why send a relatively huge machine along to what... analyze the sample on the spot?
This is another example of "aliens" doing weird, strange crap that makes no logical sense. Note that I'm not saying it didn't happen. But you have to wonder why they would do such things. What is the real purpose? Another example: jamming a huge needle into Betty Hill's abdomen as a "pregnancy test." Even us dopey humans can tell if a woman is pregnant with a little urine or saliva sample. Why do aliens sometimes do things that are so crude and obvious and illogical?

My total guess is that it was to put on a show for the witness. To convey an idea or put a thought in the witnesses mind, or perhaps act out something already in the mind of the witness. The most important purpose of aliens and UFOs is apparently to manipulate how we think. And my personal guess as to why they would do such a thing is to allow them to kind of "bootstrap" themselves into our reality and existence. They want to exist. How can they do that? By having us perceive them in a way we comprehend as real.
Pretty tricky.

What's the purpose of UFOs?
Obviously a method of propulsion, right? What's the purpose of your car?
If you wanna talk about motives, here's what I think: who knows?
I personally go with the 'soul-harvesting, baby-eating, cattle-mutilating, anal-probing' theory, whatever that may be.
