I pose to you a question that may not be popular or very well received round these here parts but, here it is:

If you are a bug-eyed sentient being from another planet (Or of extra dimensional origins) why abduct individuals of a species that you genetically engineered or had a hand in manipulating or creating....if you are a species whose technological advancements are such that you can grow your own humans for testing, without having to travel to earth? Or if you didn't have a hand in creating or manipulating its evolution, why not take genetic samples or DNA and then grow the specimens in a lab? Ethics? You crossed that line when you abducted people so obviously, ethics are not an issue for you.

I just see way too many holes in the theory and the easiest explanation just seems more plausible and requires less speculation and baseless claims. Perhaps:

1. Abductees are head cases who seek attention or make stuff up.
2. Schizophrenia.
3. Drugs.
4. Traumatic events that made people concoct outlandish stories to help them deal with the trauma.

Or perhaps I'm wrong and there really are abduction cases and these aliens are us in the distant future and we are looking to study our origins or development so we travel back in time to collect data? Maybe its the evil government screwing with people and somehow using the alien story as a cover so they can probe aunt Gertrude and uncle Bob and shove instruments up their bums?

I just have a BIG problem with a phenomenon of which proof is based solely on oral accounts or information obtained through hypnosis. No surveillance footage. No snapshots. No one got the footage on their iPhone. I'm just sayin.....these stories persist without any tangible proof.

Thank you. I did leave it vague and didn't elaborate but, I think its a possible explanation so, it had to be listed there for the sake of making a point.

Could be simply they did not create us. And do it just like we do to some of the critters and humans on this planet to see what happens or what makes them tick.. There are frauds though as well only seeking attention.

Could be they are checking to see if a certain chemical is still present and we are still not ready for harvest just yet.

For starters, you need to realize they aren't bug-eyed sentient beings from another planet (Or of extra dimensional origins) with technological advancements who travel to earth and they aren't after genetic samples or DNA... despite what the ET mythology tells you.

You've pretty much answered you own statement with each possibility.

I'm in no doubt that some real alien abductions have happened, I also think some are made up, and others are military OPs.

If you need physical proof BUFOG (Birmingham UFO Group) have spectacular footage of a woman who claimed to be an abductee literally disapearing through her bed.

Why do human scientists kidnap animals to use in their labs?

That sounds promising. I'll check it out. Thanks!

You make to many assumptions....
You are not them so how would even begin to fathom what their reasoning's are? If they are of a completely different type of race then they would not think like us. Imagine a race of alligators that has evolved....
Gotta think out side the box
Have you actually looked at the abductees witch are unexplained? Your only drawing conclusions before you do any research.

%90 of ufo are fake the other %10 cannot be explained, same goes with abductees.
Their is solid proof
People have found implants witch are out of this world.
But then again it could be some high tech our Govt developed.
Who knows, I do not like to draw conclusions but I do not like to shut out possibility's.

Boy, you set up a brilliant strawman argument and knocked it right down just as brilliantly.

Basically it's the "It can't be true, therefore it's not true" argument. I think it may have been used before, though....

growing humans? how does that give one data on the natural genetic diversity and natural mutations that have occured over thousands of years, if they just grow new human using the original dna than they have the same data that they started with and cant document the growth since there introduction of the original dna, this is assuming they are abducting humans, and doing so for data gathering purposes

Basically, what I see here, is another thread saying "I dont believe it, so it CANNOT be real".

I do love open-mindedness.
