The world has seen other periods in which Magic and Mystery Cults flourish. It does not auger well for any society which moves in that direction.

No doubt the internet has added to this conspracy madness. There is more nutball crap on the internet than you can shake a stick at.

"Such themes enjoy enormous popularity (a year 2000 poll found 43 percent of Americans believing in UFOs), but carry no political agenda."

UFO's = Unidentified flying objects.

Are there objects that are flying that haven't been identified? Of course. Might they have been identified if someone with the proper knowledge had seen the flying object? Of course. However are there such things as unidentified flying objects? Of course...

Hence 57% percent of the people who answered the question are either idiots (thinking that no object, ever flown, remained unidentified) or equates ufo's with little green men from the planet whatever. Hmmm.....that might make them idiots as well.

Here I thought from the title that this was going to be about nuclear fusion...

By the bye, I believe in UFOs: I have seen things flying which I had no idea what they were. Others might have been able to identify them but I couldn't.
