Both of us believe that the CONTROL FUNCTION Vallee describes is much more than you outlined. We both see Vallee as insisting that the whole of the behavior of the critters and their craft are deliberately structured and calibrated to engineer subtle to not so subtle and wholesale effective control mechanisms on our culture, our society. And the big question is--to what ends.
And on that score the issue of the degree of evil involved is a very important one.
We hope Vallee hasn't been turned 'to the dark side.'
If you insist on reading Vallee through the very particular, subjective lens of your own religious beliefs, you won’t understand the breadth of his thought.
Try this; it’s short:
