I find it hard to believe that some civilization would cross 100 trillion or so miles of frozen vacuum just to steal some cows and zip around allusively in the sky for apparently no reason, or have a penchant for lewd examinations. Then again, I’ve seen plenty of photos and videos by self-described “ufologists” that are clearly fake. If some are fake, why not all? Then again, I’ve seen a UFO myself, I just don’t know what it was.

I find it difficult to believe that interstellar aliens with massive spacecraft can overcome the barriers of time and space.

I also find it just as difficult to believe that professional observers - military-trained pilots (and others) - would hallucinate such things.

For me the answer is obvious - there there is an intelligent species that is native to Earth.

What do civilized people do when barbarians move into their neighborhoods? They move elsewhere and keep their distance.

It's a big world, and there are plenty of places where a species advanced enough to produce such craft could sequester themselves.

This would also explain the behavior of governments vis-a-vis UFOs in recent decades.

I don’t know what to think. A number of years ago, I got up at 4:30am to get ready for work and went out onto the back porch to have a cup of coffee while looking at the night sky.

While glancing up at what I thought was the planet Venus, the shinning star like object suddenly darted to my right and shot out of sight at high speed.

Several years later, while camping in a remote area with some friends, while standing on some rocks above our camp, I saw a green glowing disc fly up from a nearby canyon and zig zag back and forth across the sky several times in front of me at incredible speed, before disappearing again into the canyon. My friends, sitting around the campfire saw nothing.

I told a few people at work about my sighting, but they just laughed and discounted what I saw as a stealth fighter plane in the sky. Yeah right. I can see why people who have strange sightings often don’t say much as ridicule from people who have never seen anything out of the ordinary is often the response.

Everybody knows that these are future versions of ourselves, coming back to tweak the timeline. That’s why they’re always humanoid in appearance, and so squirrely about revealing themselves. Duh.

Oh they are totally real. How else do you explain Mr Bean?

I thought not.

They’re there, whatever they are, and have been for a very long time, appearing in medieval art and on back, even cave art. Logic to me says whatever it is, is part of this world. I happen to believe that they’re not what we’re being primed to accept, and will suggest strongly that incredulity is in order, particularly when you want to believe what you’re being told. I’ll just leave it at that rather abstract level because I don’t care to debate the matter.

Not sure why everyone is convinced these are interstellar travelers. There are many more plausible possibilities such as simply being a small group of humans with advanced tech. They could be fabled Atlantians. Could be a different race or sub-species. Seems if they have the technology to completely evade our most advanced fighters and come on and off radar at will, they could hide a base somewhere on this big planet. I know it sounds totally far fetched, but as crazy as that sounds it is much much much more likely than interstellar travel.

Harry Reid’s pal was a billionaire.

Harry kicked $22,000,000 into this over 5 years allegedly benefiting his pal.

Why doesn’t the NYet Times report this as corruption and fraud?

The billionaire could have spent some of his own damn wealth chasing ghosts, shadows, and snipes rather than profiting off the American taxpayer and corrupt Democrat leadership.

I put UFOs in the same category as Bigfoot.

I see no conclusive, indisputable proof of either, but there are just TOO MANY sightings and encounters to completely dismiss them all as hokum. Figure about half of those sightings and photos are deliberate fakes, done by a couple of guys for a laugh, and that still leaves too many to discount.

So, my official stance is that I just don’t know.

Why is it that these self-proclaimed geniuses at the NY Times can’t figure out that in all the worlds in space, there may be a civilization that exists and may be smarter than we are (which wouldn’t take much), and they are looking around. And if I saw war, destruction, pain, killing, and torture happening, would I want to say “howdy?”

We don’t communicate with the ants. We just leave them alone of put them in ant farms. Why should they? They can wait till we grow up.

Military satellite that view the world often see fast moving objects that change direction beyond our capabilities.
