In search of space aliens: His ideas are a mile high — and beyond
Rocky Mountain News ^ | June 9, 2008 | Lisa Ryckman

Posted on 06/09/2008 1:01:22 PM PDT by george76

Jeff Peckman is a 54-year-old who lives with his parents, promotes technology that supposedly creates harmony by manipulating electromagnetic fields and is behind an initiative to form a commission on extraterrestrials in Denver.

"He's less ahead of his time if you put him in Boulder," ... "He's more ahead of his time in downtown Denver."

Peckman is derided, dismissed and deemed a doofus ...

His projects - everything from technology called brain fingerprinting to an Oregon ballot initiative to label genetically engineered food ...

In 2003, Peckman championed Initiative 101, which would have required the city to promote peacefulness. The campaign cost $2,000, and the initiative lost - with a respectable 32 percent of the vote.

Peckman first popped into the public eye in 1998, when his name was put on the ballot as the U.S. Senate candidate for the Natural Law Party, a now-defunct group based on the Maharishi's teachings.

His Initiative 101 was dubbed "Safety through Peace."

Depite being ridiculed and misunderstood, the initiative got more than 28,000 votes.

Peckman wrote Measure 27, a 2002 Oregon initiative that would have required the labeling of genetically engineered food. Although it lost, it was endorsed by Paul McCartney, Consumers Union and others.

Peckman is confident that his latest initiative not only will get on the ballot but will pass...

Y’all are probably also exceedingly uninformed about the several hundred cases of military and civilian planes lost over confrontations with UFO’s in the 1940’s and 1950’s.

. . .

as well as the several cases of nuclear missles and weapons being taken off-line by hovering UFO’s.

I must confess, it’s too much fun playing with folks so uninformed of the facts. LOL.

You are citing quack after quack, I had a close friend who was one of the top psychiatrists in the U.S. He was crazy,in a good way,nothing like you.

Aliens conspiring with government, part alien, part robot hybrids, breeding, abductions, the NWO, I can’t believe you haven’t mentioned the Illuminati.

Please seek professional help. NOT a psychologist who believes in elaborate conspiracies, a good clinical old line psychiatrist.

Given that you chronically and relentlessly demonstrate

NO

useful functional comprehension of forum rules such as

“NO PERSONAL ATTACKS,”

AND

your assessment of folks such as a head psychiatrist at Harvard Medical School—John Mack would appear to be terminally flawed as is your assessment of a host of other quality researchers . . .

your perspective is worth less than a molecule of salt.

However, it has been fun to play with your gross lack of understanding of the field.

BTW, I’ll continue to bask in the kind thoughts and affirmations of my professional peers.

I pray your . . . lack of understanding . . . isn’t jolted by your own . . . trip with the visitors . . . however, I’ve known of such attitudes to crash and burn in the most interesting ways.

Cheers.

And what phenomena is that? Wacky people believing wacky things? I think I understand the phenomena quite accurately.

OMG, the U.S. government is run by aliens in UFO’s!!! 9-11 was commanded by little green men who control President Bush through an implant that they have put into him and over 3 million abducted Americans!!!!!!

Doesn’t sound like a remotely likely accurate understanding, to me.

‘Tis Not even close to my construction on reality.

I am a bit curious . . . as a psychologist, I guess . . . where does all this derisive hostility come from toward trainloads of solid data?

What’s the origin of all this emotionality toward symbols on paper, photos, videos—data?

Fascinating.

YOU are a psychologist?

Physician Heal thyself!

Train-loads of solid data? You must have a different burden of proof than I, as well as a different definition of data.

Hearsay is not data. Anecdote is not data. Testimony is not data. An actual alien object would be data, transmissions from an alien source would be data, a live alien to study would provide data. “My name is Billie Joe Bob and the aliens gave me a probe.” is not data.

As I’ve noted . . . there’s hard data on more than 3,000 sites where craft—in most cases—touched down. There’s lots of corroborating data from multiple witnesses in many of those cases.

And, in terms of government documents—there’s train loads of clearly indicative-of-UFO-craft sorts of things documents.

And just in the last month—interestingly—the number of credible, quality videos on YOUTUBE of UFO’s has shot through the roof.

From my perspective, the only reason anyone would have the silly notion proffered that I’m replying to . . . would be a lack of willingness or capacity to search out the solid data.

Again . . . rigid, shockingly narrow, entrenched brazenly and clearly uninformed biases are poor things to make judgments on.

A non-humanly manufactured implant from a probe site most devinitely IS data.

Sheesh.

Behind the times Olympic class ignorance still fails to impress me in the slightest.

LOL. Yeah, solid respectable data from losers living in mom’s basement about an alien probe implanted in their posterior; luckily their head is up their posterior so much that it was easy to locate.

Perhaps checking the better data will be more workable with a little more experience in living.

There is no data, there are assertions, conspiracy theories, and anecdotes.

All it takes to convince you apparently, but I don't trust the judgment of someone who thinks President Bush is controlled by space aliens and might have been involved in 9-11 if his alien overlords commanded it.

In your posts you praise and worship aliens more than you praise and worship God. A government serves by the will of God, not by the will of little green men in UFO’s.

That ugly comment about President Bush is a brazen falsehood. Some folks would have the decencyto be ashamed of such horrific balderdash.

I don’t think some folks would know data if the Smithsonion fell collapsed on their homestead. Sheesh.

Reminds me of some of the clerks I’ve run into since returning to the States. Shocking.

Which word in

“NO PERSONAL ASSAULTS”

is beyond comprehension?

I can’t imagine anyone imagining that I’d worship anything but God Almighty.

Sounds like wholesale ignorance of my posting history on FR.

Considering the level of galactic level ignorance of the overwhelming solid data—exclusive of the flakier sorts—I guess ignorance of my posting history is to be considered par for the course.

So you calling me and others ignorant, foolish, and a laundry list of other adjectives doesn’t qualify as a personal attack?

I said nothing about anyone’s sanity.

I said nothing about anyone’s personhood.

I did slightly return the tweak in terms of the level of information evident in the posts I’m responding to.

I consider the relative insults to be enormously different.
It’s interesting to see what it took to get a response at this level. Fascinating.

I hate bothering the mods at all—especially for such cheap shots lobbed my way at such a juvinile level. So, I tend to tweak back over what’s obvious—the poor level of research so typical of naysayers. I may have commented on the obvious 100% falsehoods so persistently raged at me.

Perhaps I should just change my approach and press the abuse button at the first insultingly assaultive rant about my sanity etc. However, I doubt I will. I don’t think the mods should be bothered over such minor stuff.

Besides, the more than 100 folks on the UFO ping list know the usual song and dance of the naysayers and typically just shake their heads and walk on by.

However, I am serious in terms of encouraging y’all to do better research. You REALLY ARE clearly, from all the evidence you’ve provided, setting yourselves up for a horrendously big bite from the OUTRAGEOUS TYPE II ERROR you appear to be wallowing in—up to your necks.

The attitude seems to be rather common. And mystifyingly so. Particularly given that the perspective is a minority 20% of the population. In fact, highly educated people tend to believe in the reality of UFO’s and ET’s and in government coverups in significantly greater percentages than the less highly educated. So, in terms of the population of the most educated Americans, your perspective would be even more in a smaller minority than 20%. I forget what the particular percentages are on that score.

It is also interesting that I’ve provided a lot of concrete refutations of your broadside lack of information and wholesale wrong information and you’ve not responded meaningfully to any of it. Just more insulting rants about my sanity. Very impressive. Is that what your mommy taught you to do? Your daddy? Who taught you to behave that way?

If you are married and treat your wife and kids that way, you must be a barrel of laughs to live with.

However, I do appreciate your functioning as great foils to keep the thread bumped up and others exposed to the information. Some of it may turn out to be life-saving for some potential victims sometime.

So please feel free to keep lobbing the forum rules violating personal assaults on my sanity etc. It only diminishes your stature in the eyes of FREEPERS and lurkers. However, it sure helps to keep the thread bumped up and for that, thanks.

Besides, I’m keenly aware of my own quite solid and balanced reality testing! LOL. . . . and a lot of other strengths you might be quite shocked about. LOL.

Not all of us have to live according to a minority view pretending to be a herd mentality.

Some of us have been quite comfortable for decades living as rare birds of plumage regardless of what the winds of popular MAIN STREAM MEDIA and carefully crafted government opinion channels dictate.

Ironically, just about the same time you were posting this my daughters ran in from outside claiming to have just seen a UFO. I had them all draw what they saw, and it would appear to have been a meteor.

However, I am happy that they are at least open to the possibility of not having “all the answers”. That they are open minded enough to consider the possibilities - even the fact that if they saw a mechanized UFO that it could be something from Earth they had never seen before! LOL

I would hate if they were as closed minded, and stuck in their ways as many of the apparent naysayers are...

INDEED.

I actually think that the brittly rigid and narrow are going to be . . . as Scripture says . . . having

“their hearts fail them for fear”

when their constructions on reality no longer fit what’s vividly in front of their eyes to the max.

God have mercy on all who Love Him.

When I said you are mentally ill/imbalanced I meant it not as an insult. I was trying to be helpful.

Your theories about aliens conspiring with the government and the New World Order, alien-robot hybrids, vast conspiracies to control energy and create a world government. Good cop aliens, bad cop aliens, 9/11 being a conspiracy whereby the jihadists are controlled by government “puppet masters”...shall I go on? lead me to conclude that you are suffering from some form of delusions of grandeur

You have been “studying” since 1962, I suspect you have been telling people like myself that “you’ll see soon” for at least 30 years now, do you see ANY irony in that?
