Just curious (honestly) but would you consider a serious discussion about the existence of fallen angels embarrassing? Or of the existence of Satan...or, say, The Book of Enoch?
Yes..., I suspect that would be just as embarrassing to him, too.
And I can see how some folks can arrive at any of our UFO threads and possibly get the impression that, because they are not familiarly with the history of these discussions at FR, we might seem a little loose with the facts (FarmerW, we really aren't but in our haste we might rely on previously substantiated data) .
For FarmerW's sake, let me say the these threads rest on a vast pile of previously presented information and such discussions are not at all as "sensational" as they might seem to a person who arrives as a newcomer.
Also, to FarmerW, let me extend an invitation to ask some of the old timers to this subject any question that you think might give you a better sense of the, say, sanity of the posters here. I think you be surprised that we are no more insane than most humans --which sanity is largely in doubt anyway;-)--just willing to delve publicly into a subject intelligently that, for the most part, is as you suggest frequently relegated to the Elvis and Bigfoot section of the bookstore.
