UFO over Suffolk Cathedral: Possible photo emerges
All News Web ^ | 17-12-2008 | Masha Dimitriov

Posted on 12/17/2008 1:59:58 AM PST by indianbob

Earlier this month we reported about a sighting of a luminous grey UFO in the historic town of Bury St Edmunds in the United Kingdom. The UFO was seen spinning and hovering over the St Edmundsbury Cathedral by a townsman who promptly notified the police. It later emerged that the UFO was also seen by a staff member of the Cathedral. Sarah Friswell, the Cathedrals visitor officer, noted that the topic of the mysterious craft had come up in a staff meeting and

After the posting of a lame graphic in the absence of any serious response from another intellectually limited poster, our resident Pavlovian-trained mutt responds with:

You got that right!
But even Special Ed types deserve internet priviliges. ;)


Better sign up for some classes from your own local 'Special Ed' teacher buckwheat, looks like you need some remedial work on those 'priviliges'.

You has met the enemy, and he is you, LOL

Nice red herring. There IS no 'consensus' at this point, there is a general belief that there is *something* or *someone* making an appearance in our atmosphere, on the ground, in the near regions of space around our planet, and your problem is that your abysmal talents of observation and analysis cannot even begin to compare with the abilities and skills of professional pilots and astronauts. In a hypothetical court proceeding, their statements as to what they have observed would be given far greater credence than yours, because they've been professionally trained, you're just a whining contrarian.

You call consensus a red herring, then immediately talk about consensus, of a "general belief", and attack my credentials when you haven't a clue as to what I am. That's a hallmark of liberal thinking. (Take your previous posts, change your subject from flying saucers to global warming and read it back to us, please). But anyway, pilots have been known to mistake Venus for something else, same as us ground dwellers.

Let's take that a little further. Seeing as you deign to be superior enough to say that I'm too low on the food chain to make rational observations, let's see just how good you are. Can you tell with accuracy whether a car goes by your house at 60 miles an hour? At 70? At 80?

Can you see an airliner, not too far over the horizon, (with it's landing lights on) and tell me whether it's at an altitude of 10 thousand feet? 33 thousand? Can you tell anyone with accuracy whether it's 5 miles away from you or 20 or 35 or 50? Can an airline pilot see a flaming meteor out the window and accurately say whether that meteor was 6 miles away or 60 or 600? There's no scale, no reference points in the sky, no graph overlaid, so even your hallowed highly trained pilots testifying before an activist judge ultimately can't be any more accurate than anyone else could be with a meteor event that happens in a couple of seconds.

Bonus round 1: There's a reason why there's a green light on one wingtip and a red one on the other. Why?

Bonus round 2: Do your hallowed pilots and astronauts fall for all the ill-defined blobs of light such as what this thread subject is about? How many of them subscribe to flying saucer rags or are members of flying saucer forums?

Demerit round: you left Edgar Mitchell's name off your deities list.

A "thinking" man would not dismiss out of hand alternate possibilities using the weak minded argument of "no proof, it doesn't exist", and pull those blinders ever tighter over their eyes. The fact is, it is you who exhibits the classic liberal mindset in that you refuse to acknowledge or consider anything that doesn't fit into your liberal orthodoxy of denial. It is conservatives who traditionally keep an open mind about ALL things, not accepting blanket statements or mindlessly swallowing blind statements of disbelief from those who haven't got a clue, like you.

In your warped little world, unless you too saw an apple fall from a tree to the ground, Sir Isaac Newton would be one of those 'hoaxers' or 'carnival barkers' you were mewling about last night.

Typical projection.

However did you get the idea that I (or anyone else) was closed minded to the possibility of alien life in such a vast Universe? Just because I personally am not sympathetic to the idea that aliens are here practicing proctology, barnstorming, and farming methods doesn't mean life doesn't exist elsewhere. It only means that space aliens coming to Earth are the Freudian and Jungian constructs of the kook fringe.

“With untold millions of security cameras, on permanent mounts, running 24 hours a day all over the world, why hasn’t there been anything produced beyond the unfocused blobs of light that the hoax industry has been shopping since 1947?”

Uh...because security cameras are not pointed upwards toward the sky? Read this and get back to me....

Be they from outside the Earth’s atmosphere or from some other dimension parallel to our own, there are entities of some sort intruding into our planetary space.

Or something as mundane as a black ops project with some cool toys.

You don't say!

But out of all those cameras, surely there's a few that cover a wide angle, right? Web cams at amusement parks come to mind, as well as those looking over cities, those weathercams that TV stations set up, etc. Hate to disturb you with that bit of logical thinking, but you did say to get back to you. 

Hey, how about all the True Believers set up a network of web cams?

And could you link to something other than Linda Moulton Howe, for crying out loud?  :)

Let me qualify what I just said. I understand that people can mistake things that they see, but the DU wannabes trashing up the place with "aliens stole my colon!" is something else again.

At the risk of being identified as one of the “inevitable scoffers” allow me to present a comparison between the UFO in Suffolk and the November 20 meteor over eastern Alberta/western Saskatchewan. The meteor was captured on at least three different video cameras. Eastern Alberta is a lot less densely populated than Suffolk and in the UK there is a police camera covering just about every street corner. Doesn’t it seem just a bit odd that there isn’t a lot more evidence of the Suffolk sighting than one video, shot through power lines to confuse the auto focus, of a blurry UFO shaped like a small cloud and one “possible” photo?

Since you seem to be searching for hard evidence, can you provide hard evidence that the object recorded in Canada recently was a meteor?

You call consensus a red herring, then immediately talk about consensus, of a "general belief", and attack my credentials when you haven't a clue as to what I am.


There is a vast difference between 'consensus', meaning that (for example) everyone agrees that there is a specific ignoramus in Tennessee that is damned and determined to deny, defy and debunk any and all suggestions of extraterrestrial manifestations in, on and around our Earth. That would be 'consensus'. A 'general belief' would be that everyone agrees that there are any number of intellectually challenged individuals all across the 50 states that prefer to 'deny, deny, deny'. That is the difference, despite your sputtering to the contrary.

That's a hallmark of liberal thinking. (Take your previous posts, change your subject from flying saucers to global warming and read it back to us, please).

This has nothing to do with global warming, and invoking yet another red herring does nothing for your shaky position.

But anyway, pilots have been known to mistake Venus for something else, same as us ground dwellers.

Why of COURSE, it's that sneaky Planet Venus again, those pilots must have missed the memo about Venus showing up at all times day and night, hiding behind clouds, just waiting to pop out and go "BOO!" at any moment.

You're channeling Phil Klass aren't you? LOL

[irrelevant brain teasers from Readers Digest, et al snipped]

Demerit round: you left Edgar Mitchell's name off your deities list.

So what? You probably consider him insane, demented, or a liar, right?

A "thinking" man would not dismiss out of hand alternate possibilities using the weak minded argument of "no proof, it doesn't exist", and pull those blinders ever tighter over their eyes. The fact is, it is you who exhibits the classic liberal mindset in that you refuse to acknowledge or consider anything that doesn't fit into your liberal orthodoxy of denial.

LOL, "typical projection", why not save yourself the bother and just put your hands over your ears and scream "I know you are, but what am I?"

You are so utterly predictable that clocks can could be set, based on your responses.

However did you get the idea that I (or anyone else) was closed minded to the possibility of alien life in such a vast Universe? Just because I personally am not sympathetic to the idea that aliens are here practicing proctology, barnstorming, and farming methods doesn't mean life doesn't exist elsewhere. It only means that space aliens coming to Earth are the Freudian and Jungian constructs of the kook fringe.

Your agitation and pathetic vitriol directed at those who are have actually witnessed this type of phenomena (when you, a self described 'ground dweller' have probably not), is all that is needed to conclude that your mind is closed except to the narrow construct which you just pecked out suggesting that life might 'exist' elsewhere. But nowhere in this thread have your sub topics of 'proctology, barnstorming and farming methods' even been discussed.

A normal and sane person would probably be getting concerned at this point about your repeated references to proctology.

Personally, I don't think we need to hear about your family tree. LOL

*ding ding*

See ya later Sparkplug.

The subject is one of the five major food groups of the kook fringe. Really, Brainiac, look it up for yourself

A normal and sane person would probably be getting concerned at this point about your repeated references to proctology.

Yet another adolescent liberal routine, the old "you talk about it, so you must be a closet homo". Seems you and I have had this conversation before. I know somebody pulled that trick before on another fringe thread. Not that it makes any difference. All you fringies smell the same.

Someone who is bothered by that needs to either a.) look at their own behavior or b.) grow a thicker hide.

Your use of creative spelling doesn't change the fact that you are hurling profanities around. There are other political discussion sites that are more tolerant of casual use of the "ph" word. Free Republic has a policy of not using prophanity in posts.

No, JoJo, we've not had any conversations before, perhaps you're recalling some long forgotten 'missing time' incident when the aliens extracted some of your eggs for their hybrid human/alien experimentation? Did they let you hold your baby at any point?

And let's be honest about it, what poster in this thread has a tagline about 'Aliens stole their colon'? You're beginning to worry me.
