The cow mutilations are done in the same way to some humans.

Without anesthetic.

Rendlesham Forest UFO airmen at Woodbridge event"> Two former USAF servicemen have returned to Suffolk, 30 years after the claims of UFO sightings in a forest.

The two security personnel were the first to report sightings of strange lights on 26, December 1980.

They´re not really what I had in mind as peer reviewed physical science.

Though on this same subject, have you ever read Guillermo Gonzalez and Jay W Richards The Privileged Planet: How Our Place In The Cosmos Is Designed For Discovery? I think you´d enjoy it. And it has a one hour video companion piece that´s available on YouTube. Both of these guys are Christians and Gonzalez is a scientist of some note.

Again, All the Best....

THanks for the suggestions.

I understand that.

Are you asserting that there was nothing interesting in what Ted Philips asserted?

I understand you have . . . seemingly . . . a fierce bias/preference to be bitten in the rear by a TYPE II ERROR in your intense avoidance of a TYPE I ERROR.

In a rapidly changing, over much a paradigm shifting context

where

critters and 'officials'

were determined to keep (and quite successful at keeping)

"peer reviewed" [you are aware of where most of the grant money comes from?]

and

"tangible evidence"

out of the VERY PUBLIC domain . . .

IF YOUR LIFE AND YOUR FAMILY'S LIVES DEPENDED ON IT . . .

HOW

would you go about determining in the least degree what was really going on?




I've read tons of peer reviewed journal articles on a wide ranging list of topics. Just my bent and one does tend to do that anyway when getting a high quality, very earned PhD.

Most of them were full of horse feathers in terms of anything useful of any significance available therein. A lot of them were hollow, empty and embarrassingly plain wrong, silly, stupid. Yet, they'd passed through the peer review process and met all the check list items for the priests of the Religion of Scientism.

I love the Old Testament (particularly Torah), geology, seismology, physics, chemistry, meteorology (not climatology!), molecular biology....

I can’t recall

ever . . . certainly only very rarely if ever . . .

succeeding in getting a naysayer to answer questions like that.

WHAT’S WITH THAT???

I thought they were interested in truth and only truth???

LOL.

Thank you Dave. I’ve always had an interest in this and read many books on it - but I’m not a dem, lol.

I think Marzulli is spot on in a list of ways.

Quix, you know that I believe this too, and have done so for many years.

ps2, Thanks for your post.

Logically ... all such factors do NOT PRECLUDE their having something to do with so called “ET’s”

Logically, my ability to identify some flying object also does not preclude it being operated by LGM etc. When they lock the cockpit door on United Flight 123 (a clearly identified Boeing 737, let us say), you just don't know what's going on up there. Is Captain Friendly really the human he looks like? Hmmmm? I just watched a documentary called "The Last Starfighter" ... nothing was quite as it seemed ... ;'}

OTOH, logically, suppose I identify something positively as a flying saucer. It's truly saucer shaped, and it's flying. Sure, the pilot could be Thor of the Asgard ... it could also be my neighbor Kevin Smith, a perfectly normal Earth type human.

Heck, it could be ME ... not that if it was, I would tell ... but ya never know ....

MUWAHAHAHAHAHAhahahahahahahahahaha!

I certainly love and/or greatly enjoy to varying degrees:

—Scripture . . . more or less all of it . . . though I struggle still at times with Job, Lammetations and the Song of Solomon.

—most sciences—particularly geology, biology, astronomy,

—all the social sciences

—language use, graphics, graphic design,

—gardening, woodworking, furniture design and construction, landscaping, weaving, pottery, jewelry making, cooking, designing solutions to use-of-space problems;

—writing, photography, hiking [used to more enjoy backpacking . . . I like my Tempurpedic too much, as I’ve aged].

—group process; intense dialogue; satire; humor;
