anybody listening to the UFO hearings today?

[Nostraduzzi]

I have said that a higher life form is (1) visiting the earth, or that (2) that such life has found a place on earth to hide. For the latter one would have to suppose that this life form evolved and then decided -- for whatever reason -- to hide itself while it then monitors the evolution of humanity. I will go with the former. It is ET.

You would claim neither. Humans are the highest life form because a higher life form is not on display at the Smithsonian. When evidence/testimony doesn't fit your belief it is faked or the product of "nut jobs." That tells me that you really haven't looked at much. You were not even familiar with the Kecksburg incident, which was witnessed across several states before the object gently glided to earth. It did not behave like a meteor, as the government had claimed. Meteors are not scribed with symbols.

The issue I have with you is that you have decided to denigrate people -- those who look at all of these independent cases and have decided that the probability of ALL OF THEM being false is zero. You claim the opposite -- that none are 100%, so therefore all must be 0%.

Moreover, given the 2018 leak, you must also now assume that there is an enormous conspiracy that spans across all branches of our military, that all of these officers are part of the conspiracy (or that they are "nut jobs"), and they are all really good at faking their emotions.

You must believe that these people are not only our best aviators and seaman, but that they could put the people in Hollywood to shame -- all of them.

I like my side of the probability curve on this one.

Why do you insist on telling me and others what they know, believe, and think? Yes, I am familiar with the Kecksburg work of fiction. Since I choose to see it as BS you claimed I didn’t look into the event. I don’t care who the people are that testify. Please provide evidence, not just “Trust me, I thought I saw an alien.” You blindly believe people. I don’t.

That's false. I don't blindly believe "anyone." Some are more credible than others, but that doesn't mean that the less credible are lying. As I stated, I am looking at it through probabilities. All of it has to be false for your take to be true, whereas for my position it takes only one case out of thousands. As of 2018 we now we have irrefutable cases.

The TicTac and Gimbal cases would be enough on their own. Everything is there except for a downed craft. I think since the Iranian case we have learned that it is fruitless to shoot at these things. And why would we do that when we already have the artifacts? If we did not have the artifacts, surely we would be shooting at these things, right? That alone is an admission.

Given those cases, it becomes more likely that the people you would dismiss as "nut jobs" have actually been telling the truth. Not everyone, but "some." Very few people would be able to benefit from lying or concocting a story. Motive always has to be considered. In this stuff there would be reason for the reverse -- to not report. That invites ridicule. It invites people like you.

I really don't care what you believe. I DO CARE when a Pitt troll comes on our board and dumps trash into a topic that I feel is the most important issue of our time, save perhaps the problem of defining the source for consciousness.
