Why can't people handle the 'Truth' ?

These sum up my philosophy on "extraterrestrials"

Patient 5X13

X-Files : Patient - 5X13

Mulder : It's strongly held by believers in UFO phenomena that there is military complicity or involvement in abductions, but what if there is no complicity? What if there is simply just the military, seeking to develop an arsenal against which there is no defense: biological warfare, which justifies - in their eyes - making an ass out of the nation with stories of little green men - a conspiracy wrapped in a plot inside a government agenda.

Same episode

MULDER: I don't think you understand. There's just too much evidence that it's all been a lie. The conspiracy is not to hide the existence of extraterrestrials. It's to make people believe in it so completely that they question nothing.

Loved the books, loved the TV series an I heartily think this world needs a "Zed"!!

The whole force fed idea that humans can't or won't deal with the reality of the UFO answer whether it comes from the Govt or the ET's themselves is just crap. Most will just ignore it but plenty of people will accept it as the new normal.
Heck the smarter ones will find ways to work with it.

As far as us running around like 2yr olds with matches?
We do that anyway.
The brainstorm up in Iceland to drill to the earth core?
The burying of hazardous materials in fault zones?
The sheer brilliance of filling salt domes in Louisiana with crude oil and other liquids? (Bayou Corne sinkhole)

We run around with scissors & matches all the time. I can't see how we could be bigger idiots just because Aliens decided to photo bomb CNN during a broadcast.

Everyones already pretty aware of all the people who go missing every year. Worst case scenario we get told it's all govt sanctioned an now it's going to be on a lottery system instead of random. Life is going to be whatever it is whether
we want to stick our heads in the sand or find a way to commercialize the changes.

It's better to know ALL the information then just bits & pieces of it. The people who can't handle it are the same people right now who are freaking out and whipping up endless drama. They were gonna be that way no matter what.

@ KPB, in all honesty the dumbing down of society has gone far enough. Don't think we need govt's or private individuals "helping" us be dumber. A few decades ago latin was taught in schools, critical thinking was required/mandatory in college courses, no one got participation medals, an society didn't crash when they were told the truth about things. Edward Murrow reported it, we dealt with it.

Wow that’s deep, care to prove any of it

Is this about UFO's and stuff. Well who know who or what they are. Probably a bunch of weirdos, and baloney. If we go by how things are here on planet dirt. Then probably just more bull#, or space bull# to be precise. As above and so below right. So, going by that. No doubt there space snake oil salesmen from planet kelptu or dimension dippyZ43.

My only gripe is why are these UFOs always so dam blurry.

Personally I like my UFOs and aliens to be at least at 780p resolution, not even asking for 1080p or native 4k here. But then again I think may be asking to much considering real life has yet to reach those resolutions as of yet.

So the phenomenon of UFOs. No doubt can be related to the phenomenon of goblins and fairies, all of which were also low resolution beings as well. So low in fact that very few were seen and even some hundreds of years ago, in the dark ages, nobody was able to take a picture of one.

Quite a conundrum indeed. Were the question and constitute of proof of existing was not even at the "pictures or it does not exist" level. Not like our more modern and so sophisticated existence. Were anything can be fakes using CG and a bit of media manipulation, making proof by picture or vids or people talking absolutely obsolete.

So yes. UFOs like a total mystery. Were do they come from? Why are they here? What do they use in there ingredients in making space pancakes? All questions that may forever go unanswered. Oh well.

Prove a negative? No.

That aliens are not demons or that demons don’t exist? How can I prove things that don’t exist or we have no evidence for?

I could same the same thing to you about reality, mate.

This Is Interesting

So you admit you replied seriously to my comment even though it was laced with sarcasm
You replied to my sarcastic comment with logic
That doesn’t reflect well on your comprehension skills

You are right that People who have done the reading and research have the basic ideas down of what’s possibly going on....but those who advocate for “Disclosure” want the information that they “think” is the right stuff to be PUBLICLY declared as real.

But what would the GOVERNMENT get out of disclosure except shaking up the status quo and making the whole world freak out if some of the more outlandish things are true? There’s many positives to disclosure, but the negatives could turn out really bad for those who wish to stay in power.

In terms of secrecy and “Who knows what”, I think A LOT more people than we thought in higher positions of power in the Intelligence Community, Armed Forces, Congress and Senate, and some corporations have many separate pieces of the puzzle. How they can all keep their cool...and their mouths shut, about such earth shattering information, I don’t know. There’s a difference between keeping military secrets and keeping information secret that could benefit the whole of humanity in the long run.

Ooooo slow that roll!
Apparently the Catholic Church thinks it's proven demons real. Otherwise why deploy specially trained clergy for the occasional exorcism? Those clergy have supposedly Vatican sanctioned training altho there aren't many of them.
While not meeting hard science curriculum, the Vatican must need some specific criteria met to get involved?

And no I did not just get all religious here, it's just that was what occurred to me.
Doesn't the Jewish faith have the same?
Anyone?

Well, your existence certainly depends a lot on how you perceive it. If you think you're being haunted, or suffering from a voodoo curse, or if you saw a UFO you're pretty sure is alien, that's the world. That's your reality. You can live and die with it. But the objective view of reality is still sitting there, separating what we as individuals believe to be the truth from what we as a consensus have tested and agree is the truth. They overlap. We can be happy. We can be miserable. Just depends.

But I for one, like many other people, would feel much better about my personal subjective opinion being recognized as a reasonably objective opinion agreed to by others. I don't trust myself to know for absolute sure I'm right about anything. A consensus is nice to feel like I'm not completely off base and wrong about my perceptions and what I considered to be reality. Even if it kills a lot of wonder.

If the cow was smart enough to be able to fully process that information, the cow might go on a rampage -- one last act of defiance. OR, if it were sufficiently enlightened, it might start a group that aspired to go off in the wilderness and conspire.

I wonder if the rest of the other cows, the ones that didn't understand their doomed predicament, would think the rampaging escape to the wilderness cows as just being in some kind of crazy cult. Heaven's Gate for cows, as it were.

As it is, there are a lot of people who believe there is some kind of afterlife even though they're rational about other things, and except for a few dubious reincarnation stories nobody as returned from the dead after a couple years to prove it. Yet people don't kill themselves en masse, or build huge compounds in the wilderness to escape from this pain-driven existence. Maybe cows would do the same. Hard to say.

Well at least Trump isn't a reptilian, or at least according to that video on that site he isnt, though billy boy and bush were. See this is why we need to put a ban on aliens and all that other crap that is foreign.

Who know what kind of # there up to. Reptilians, those little gray dushbags, interdenominational, multidimensional, outerdimensional, whatever, and while were at it ban fairies and gnomes and all the rest.

Talk about raising cows for food. Raising humans for food. Long pig indeed.

Or more like raising humans to get high off there glands. Were not at the cow burger level yet. Were weed, for space junkies. The universe sure is a mysterious place. But the laws of as below and so above still seem to apply.

Which is why like seems to attract like. I guess humans, reptlians, gray, all other such races, are lower vibrational lifeforms. And people still arguing about blurry pictures. Going by that site, you want to find the UFOs, and aliens. Follow the money, and the massive missing persons accounts.

Oh ya! Guess the universe is not all sunshine and rainbows. Its all just a reflection of the ecosystems on earth, food chains and everything.

A different take on this UFO thing then the typical its the guberment with blurry pictures take on it.

Hi guys,

My opinion about disclosure...People can handle the truth but...

1. Anyone who says meeting alien being is amusing should think twice. Meeting alien being face to face will leave you deeply emotionally shocked. Remember the movie 'Sphere' where the crew is warned about the consequences meeting aliens as an example.
It's dangerous.

2. Once disclosure happened, people of Earth will turn to 'them' for guidance and leadership making governments obsolete...so government will obstruct it as long as possible.

My 2 cents.

The modern-era UFO sightings began with Kenneth Arnold in 1947.

No it didn't.

The Foo Fighters of WW II where earlier.

I'd argue that Kenneth Arnold was the case that brought it to the public attention. It kick started the public's fascination with UFOs.

Not really. Always tasted horribly bitter to me. And now I have kidney and liver issues, so I can't drink it without consequences. Oh, well.

I’ve always thought they were scary, evil, manipulators. I have blocked experiences out, and as I got older just ignore it as. Much as possible.

Just the other day, my son brought up something that happened to him in AZ, which I Totally forgot about. He had woken up one morning very upset that his eyes wouldn’t open. He had some weird stuff covering them. We got it off, and washed his face. That house was strange to begin with.

I guess he watched hangar 1 and that memory came back to him. He now wonders if he was abducted. I began to tell him how to protect himself from them, and he cuts me off and tells me “I’m not afraid of them”.

I dont know what to think now! I know I don’t like red eyes!
