Dam.
Of course it doesn't work. Why would my first thread work?
I'm sorry y'all. But I very much appreciate project posting it.
Thank you, I thought I had done it well, I will have to check on what I did wrong. But, it seemed like there was no way to check it until after I posted it. And, at least at first, it looked ok.
Dunno, but thanks for letting me know ....nicely.

It is TEDx, not TED.
Don't worry, the TED censors will probably take it down if it gets too popular, just like they did with Rupert Sheldrake's video (and censored Russell Targ).
On a semantic note, only a complete moron doesn't believe in UFO.s
UFO still stands for Unidentified Flying Object.
Is somebody really claiming that everything that flies out there, at all times, is identified.
"We got a coverup among the researchers themselves that people are relying on for the truth" ~ Joe Jordan
The greatest deception is really only that these beings are physical biological entities born on other planets outside of the solar system, because that is the big cover-up in place to keep the public from knowing that underground demons are in cahoots with the elite and have probably hijacked many of them, using them to prepare the way of the Antichrist and the take over of their King Appollyon or Satan of the entire Earth, and for the subjection of you the Earthlings.
We can further the demons agenda by spreading more of these semi-physical “reptilians,grays” etc. instead of calling a spade a spade that they are noting more than ordinary and despicable demon angels who didn’t keep their first estate. Like Greer and his people are such cover up artists that are in charge of the “disclosure project” making it all look like the Elite is in cahoots with Alien extra terrestrials, instead of the Elite is in cahoots or even taken over by DEMONS!
That is the main point of this article. Don’t be a voice for ET disinformation. If you expose them expose them for what they REALLY are! DEMONS on Anti-Gravitational Space vehicles that most likely can get around the solar system wherever there is some form of substantial gravity to ride on.

...the hypothesis that best fits the UFO phenomenon is, imo, that those little stinking, lying buggers ARE demons.
"I'm not saying that there's no such thing as aliens that would be foolish of me. But what I am saying is that it was my experience that these were people claiming to be aliens.
"They are not coming from outer space... they are coming from below our feet. They live beneath the surface in an UNDERWORLD or hollow honeycombed earth... and beneath the ocean's surface. They do not inhabit the surface of earth, but visit often... and that's when we see them... throughout ALL OF RECORDED HISTORY."

Why I believe in lights in the sky and daytime discs?

People! There are no non-terrestrials in real time, coming here, and there never will be. For all intents, we are alone in our local area of the Universe. Cherish your time here.

That's laughable and easily the farthest possible stretch of an answer.

Sure. Wasn't it Arthur C. Clarke who said basically that he didn't believe in UFOs because he has seen too many of them?

It baffles the mind that anyone could lose interest in UFOs. More so when an individual such as famed science fiction author, inventor, and futurist Arthur C. Clarke. In 1980 he stated that he was no longer interested in UFO sightings. What could this brilliant man have experienced to result in this unusual POV? Would you believe he simply saw the results of computer enhancement of frames from a film taken in 1966 of a then-believed-to-be UFO resulting in said UFO being simply a Piper Cub-type aircraft? And because the plane was at such a great distance from the camera that the resulting small image is too blurry to show the plane's aeronautical details. Since 1966 this film has been shown as proof of a UFO and people swear by it as they swear that the Phoenix "lights" are also a giant UFO, etc.
Even though the computer enhancement took place in 1980 or before and the results broadcast internationally, this film is still being touted as real. Evidence doesn't always win out.
If one of us would have been able to interview Clarke after his pronouncement and asked him "Well, what about all of the other higher-quality films (pre-video) and photographs that can be enhanced and not result in mundane explanations, would you 'believe' again?" Whatever level of acceptance Clarke had for the reality of UFOs it had to be extremely low for him to be disuaded on such flimsy evidence.

The video below contains nothing Earth shattering or even new to any reader here. Yet, I believe it is very useful and quite good for showing your "skeptic" friends, because it's done by a skeptic who dropped his skepticism while researching for a book. Something I can very much relate to as it is what brought me here and how I came to know as much as I do.
Not interested in "TED Talks" but I'm reacting to your sentence "a skeptic who dropped his skepticism ..." No such person! I'm a skeptic. Born one, still one and I'll die one.
Skeptic: a person inclined to question or doubt all accepted opinions.
You have skeptics and you have believers. A skeptic is driven by a necessity for irrefutable evidence of alleged claims. When such is provided, the skeptic moves on to the next claim. Irrefutable evidence doesn't cancel skepticism, it reinforces it. I'm a skeptic but not of UFOs as I've had more than my share of sightings.
I am skeptical of alleged claims of anything connected with extra-terrestrials and abductions.

This video is garbage is more of a reason why no one takes this phenomena seriously anymore.
Most of what the speaker says is outright lies, unfactual, no true proof to his empty words.
It's just a guy talking. He even opens by basically stating his career as a writer was a fail. I can only imagine the desperate steps he has taken to convince himself he is somehow "in the know".
Imho this video is bad substance for the ufo world, kind of like Tom Delong, Steven Greer, ancient aliens and all the other #e out there pretending to be in the know and offer nothing true or real to the conversation but light entertainment.
Why is this thread flagged and starred So much. The TED talk was a joke.
And I've been a believer since I was a child.
