Nothing new, UFO's reported before Roswell (during WWII)
Foo fighter

The term foo fighter was used by Allied aircraft pilots in World War II to describe various UFOs or mysterious aerial phenomena seen in the skies over Europe and the Pacific theatre. Contemporary witnesses often assumed that the foo fighters were secret weapons employed by the enemy, and it was not until after the war that it was discovered neither side had anything to do with them. Despite these fears, foo fighters (whatever they might have been) were apparently never reported to have harmed or tried to harm anyone. To this day the case remains unexplained.

Though usually thought of as blobs of light or fire, several different types of reported phenomena were classified as "foo fighters".

Foo fighters were reported on many occasions from around the world;

both are equally frightening.

Both are equally something, but not frightening. Two possibilities:

a. If they are there, watching warily from a distance (we are frightening to them), we need to grow up: we no doubt have work to do when we are fit to be hired;

b. If we are alone in the universe, excepting of course the One, the Eternal, the Creator, we need to grow up: we no doubt have work to do and no one but ourselves to hire.

“...serious Christian with 18 yrs studying religions...”

gee, I missed that in my M.Div studies.

Did you happen to see the documentary where “Chariot of the Gods” was debunked?

Like I said, the height of arrogance.

Even Project Bluebook, as it closed down, admitted that a small number of the claimed sightings couldn't explained or written off. Little green men? I doubt it.

Maybe that is why they are called UNIDENTIFED Flying Objects.

Not everything in our existence is easily explained. How much more so for the vastness of the unknown Universe?

“Go for it, sport...”

It’s a former professor from Spring Arbor University, on his way to another symposium where he says that he/she should be allowed to lecture dressed like this.

If there really are aliens, I find it hard to believe they would not have tried to conquer us or exterminate us. The human race is a dangerous bunch.

Fair enough! You’re an engineering student eh? I was supposed to be class of ‘08 but will now be graduating in ‘09 because I’m doing a one year internship here in Germany.

UFOs are real, but we don't know what they are, where they are from or what they are doing. There are tens of thousands of reports by sober, reasonable and responsible people. Millions upon millions of people have seen UFO's. Jacque Vallee's point is that such a phenomenom, with the potential or threat of profound change is a proper subject for scientific research. Saying that UFO's don't exist is not to search for the truth.

I've read a lot on the topic. There is definitely truth in what you say: "Facts and reality don’t stop them for believing what they WANT to believe. It tickles the imagination. Reality isn’t as exciting ...

So, what you have to do, is search for the serious researchers, who are trying to find the truth. In my opinion, the best is Jacques Vallee. Here are some Amazon links:

1. Challenge to Science : the UFO Enigma

2. Dimensions: A Casebook of Alien Contact

3. Revelations-Alien Contact and Human Deception

4. UFO Chronicles of the Soviet Union: A Cosmic Samizdat

You mean we had illegal aliens in those days?

There are two possibilities, either we’re alone in the universe, or we aren’t. I don’t know which is true, but both are equally frightening

That about fills it - in a nutshell.

Like the ruling powers of Rome, back in the days of scientists like Copernicus, you could be put to the stake for suggesting things like "the earth orbits the sun and is not the center of the Universe" = Copernicus narrowly escaped being roasted, but the Inquisition put him under house arrest for the remainder of his lifetime - just one more roadblock to mankind's progression. And, heaven forbid anyone suggest that, in the billions of other stars "out there" like our sun, just might have planet systems too - better keep that under your hat if you didn't want to be a the main course at a public BBQ. It's only been recently that scientists have discovered and allowed as how our solar system is not the freak of the Universe = i.e. the only one in a unmeasurable super Universe full of literally billions of star systems...The Universes operate on set laws that opperate system wide. No matter how big the misplaced idea/ego that we are the biggest, best and most intelligent thing ever to happen to the Universe = 'tain't so. At least, I hope the Universe isn't in such dire straights

So have most of the rest of us. Also we have been listening to the Art Bell Show since last century. We have also been watching the sky since Roswell and nothing has gone Unidentified, not even the candles and dry cleaning bag thing (Phoenix is still wondering). Excepting the rubber dummies they dropped by parachute that one day.

Don’t worry, you’re among freepers.

Excellent! You'll remember that long after you've forgotten most of that engineering school drudge.
