Facts, of which there are many I'm sure, I'll cover here are just a few key points as to why i believe these UFOs are anything but alien.
1. DNA Abductee Acquisitions: Well, this is by and large the easiest to discredit. An interstellar capable race of superior intelligence would NOT need multiple DNA biopsies done repeatedly. As all Human DNA is 100% the same why would they need any more than 1 single sample??? Surely a race such as this is capable of replicating what they need from one single sample, no?
2. DNA Bovine Acquisitions: See above..a Cow's, a Cow's, a Cow.....they (Aliens) haven't figured this out yet? I submit that It's the gasses in the bellies of these animals splitting the flesh from expansion to reveal a clean 'surgical' line of cutting....and of course animal scavengers.
3. Visitation: It is HIGHLY implausible that of all the races i read about, from the Reptoids on down to the lowly Greys, and beyond (i have read COUNTLESS different species descriptions in books and media from over the years) would all adapt and adhere to the single Mandate of 'hiding' from the Human species/world population. (snip).
4. Craft Lighting: Ok, why in Hell would any race of beings, hiding from the public, even run a single light aboard these craft? Surely they have a HUD screen where they can see anything they wish, including star system charts (reports over the years describe just this)...so why the anti-collision lights? Do they really expect to 'run into' an earthly craft whilst flying? Surely not as we've already outlined the absolute technological wonders they are capable of...so why something so SO simple as anti-collision lights???
5. Power & Diplomacy: Any race able to transverse the interstellar muck MUST have a process of Diplomacy, (snip)
Anyway...chew on that for a bit and once you get a clue you'll see that all these Alien craft are either mis identified natural occurrences OR Military.
Bonus: One of the oldest and most 'loved' stories by Alien believers is the Aurora Texas windmill crash in the late 1800s...proven a hoax!

As do I. Unfortunately, UFOlogy has fallen into insanity much like the majority of our society. People are using the wrong paradigm in trying to figure this out. One thing is for sure: aliens & UFOs are very likely related to bigfoot, NDE's (like ATS' own Kinglizard), reincarnation, and other events our culture views as "spirtual" or "supernatural."

But you're talking about if we tried it with our current technology and what we currently understand about spacetime. Hey, our current understanding of spacetime is only about 100 years old. Before we start saying what is or isn't plausible, let's give ourselves another couple hundred years to refine those theories.
After all, even Einstein said that time was a matter of perception. I'm no super genius like that guy, but I get the impression that the more we learn about how our DNA interacts with spacetime on a quantum level to generate reality, the more we'll learn about how to modify space, time, perception and reality such that we'll be able to "be" (rather than "move") from one location to another without it requiring so much raw power. What DNA does is give us each a point-of-view. How about if we were able to somehow amplify and modify that point-of-view using technology?
It's difficult to imagine, because at the moment, we have a hard time incorporating things like point-of-view into our mathematical equations -- which shows the obvious limitations of mathematics in symbolically representing reality.

Please give me your strongest evidence. IMHO your "evidence" is always comparable to blurry UFO pics, but I could be wrong.
Real magic, which might someday be explained by an as-yet-undiscovered scientific theory of some kind. That's not much to hang our hats on at the moment, but this looking for aliens stuff has gotten us nowhere.
MISHLOVE: So the ultimate unified theory would be one in which consciousness also fits into the picture, wouldn't it?
SIRAG: Well, not only fits into the picture. What I really think is that consciousness in some sense, in some sort of cosmic sense really, that there really is only one consciousness, and that's really the whole thing. In other words, the hyperspace itself is consciousness acting on itself, and space-time is just kind of a studio space for it to act out various things in. And of course this is an old, old idea in many different spiritual traditions.

This is the simplest and best answer that can accomodate for all things supernatural. The "aliens" are not really aliens at all. More like just "other pieces of the whole." They are "custodians" who are trying to get us to understand the inherent dangers of getting lost in physicality. They are very concerned that we have forgotten what we really are.
Now, how much of the alien/UFO phenomenon is "physically real" in the way we understand our spacetime is unclear.

Read the link provided - it is a long one but worth the effort - there are no blurry phots, there!

After reading your reply I was also going to ask what evidence you find compelling to support your comments but sometimes it's not worth the effort. However, AllsOne had similar thoughts as mine and your reply to him is just more sidestepping because reading is not evidence unless the reading points to irrefutable evidence. Anyone that mentions nibiru/sitchin is not dealing with evidence, just hearsay and creative writing.

Why do you suppose that archaeologists don't want to change their view of human history if the evidence actually supports it? It's not like the prevailing view in scientific fields hasn't changed before due to the weight of evidence. Scientists aren't perfect, but one of the foundational job skills is learning to change one's mind when confronted with new and compelling information, and I've often reflected on the fact that given their ages and the times at which the discoveries were made, many of my own professors must have changed their curricula considerably over the course of their careers to reflect changes in scientific knowledge. What, if not the actual strength of the evidence, prevents them from doing so in this case?
Also, can you explain what the flaws and contradictions in plate tectonic theory are, and how the expanding earth hypothesis does better?edit on 23-12-2010 by Desertopa because: additional question

As for techtonic theory - where to begin? - what force is it do you suppose that moves continents about like dogem cars over the planets surface, such that India wanders about willy nilly then crashes into Asia with such force that it creates the Himalayas - geologists certainly don't know, they gave up on magma convection a while ago then ludicrously proposed subduction as the driving force, seeing as thats thier only other possibility, though why a less dense ocean floor would 'sink' into a denser medium requires some very creative physics!
There is very little direct evidence for subduction and certainly nowhere near enough of it to account for the massive (and accelerating) increase in continental seafloor over the last 250 million yrs.
Strangely enough though if you were to watch one of Niel Adams animations - the whole of the continal land masses contact neatly into a complete crust, one third of the present size, without traveling anywhere or rotating. www.youtube.com...
Just as compelling (and not mutualy condtradictory) is the triple geospheres model of the earth blog.hasslberger.com...
