Nonsense! Tens of thousands of independent observers have probably just been mistaken.
Incidentally, I think that the idea that the discovery of extraterrestrial life would somehow "invalidate" religion is groundless. C. S. Lewis' science-fiction writings are centered around the concept of Christianity expanded to encompass otherworldly life.

Just further proof Bill Richardson will go to any lengths to stay in the headlines. After chairing the flop that was the Dem Convention, he has decided to appeal to the intergalactic demographic.

Roswell is a joke. It's not even close to a "mystery" and never has been. It was just one of many "saucer" reports in the wake of the Kenneth Arnold sighting. There's no contemporary evidence that anyone even thought it had anything to do with aliens.
Roswell survives because of historical ignorance among saucer buffs.

Occams Razor.
The government has said the debris was part of a balloon that was being used to test detection technology. It was made of radar deflecting metal. That sounds more plausible than a flying saucer.

If Heinz buys Tabasco, then I'm convinced....seriously, did Richardson just remove himself from any national ticket in 2008?

I had all sorts of starts to reply to you, but held back. Let's see how the thread works out.
To: AppyPappy
Then years later, the government said that bodies seen were test dummies parachuted from planes. Why change the story if the original was true?

The Air Force was stupid to play into the hands of the saucer buffs with the "dummies" thing.
It would have been much better to simply point out that none of the original Roswell witnesses ever claimed to have seen bodies. The "bodies" stories didn't crop up until the 70s and had nothing to do with the original report.

I swear to GOD that I am telling the truth. I am willing to trade my membership on this forum for it.
To: Solamente
I've got you all beat. I've got a tape of a Space Shuttle downlink showing one of these things... military, alien or whatever... I have no idea. Space debris that somehow changes direction 3 times, accelerates, and comes up from a lower orbit into the Shuttle's orbit and then does a fly by.
One of these days, when someone I'm close to is retired I'll do something with it.

This is perfectly reasonable Governor-stuff: a tourist dollar is a tourist dollar; it doesn't matter why they come so long as they do come, and spend....

Don't worry. They're enough of us out there who are sane, educated, and logic based (non new agers) that know something is out there. We don't have to justify ourselves to others who haven't seen. I personally don't blame them one bit and actually it's probably a sign of mental health that they don't believe. Why should they?
To: SedVictaCatoni
Richardson is a hot air balloon. Unfortunately he hasn't imploded yet.

As our religious life deteriorates we are more likely to find spiritual solace elsewhere. About 43% of adults believe in UFOs.
There seems to be a real need for people to have some kind of Adyton to retreat to for additional, supernatural knowledge.
