Mack’s use of hypnosis invalidates his witnesses testimony irretrievably in my view.

Some abductees could recall their experiences. Some had to undergo hypnotic regression.

No one likes hypnosis, but how else would one get to suppressed experiences?

And Mack didn't have anything to gain one way or another. If anyone knew how careful a hypnotherapist had to be not to lead a patient, it would be Mack.

And there are ways to identify false memories...if only by comparing them to the experiences of others for correlation.

Of course, in the end, it is up to you. But I would suggest that the baby not be thrown out with the bathwater.

It is interesting as hell that after all the accounts of abductees, Navy pilots and radar/sensor operators, and others who have studied this stuff, we still have no idea what, if anything, we are dealing with here.

If you want to hear a very credible “experiencer” that recalls part of their experiences—and has not yet been hypnotized for repressed memories—listen to this man:
