They didn't exist ON EARTH |
Yeah? Which is where the people the PP referred to existed? |
OP, I read American Cosmic and it was fascinating. It was especially interesting that some NASA scientists believed they were communicating with aliens telepathically and downloading information from them. I later read that rocket engineer Jack Parsons (the Thelemite) believed he and his wife had conceived the antiChrist during a gnostic mass, and he would sing Crowley's "Hymn to Pan" at the rocket launches. Clearly he had some occult beliefs surrounding his work, and he was personally a mess.
I also watched an interview with Diana Pasulka where she mentions the ritualized practices at the rocket launches, including positioning presidents and other guests in specific positions and locations depending on astronomical events "to please the sponsors." We tend to stereotype scientists as rational materialists, but clearly some aren't. Ultimately, I didn't come away with any answers, just more questions. I'm not sure what to make of it all. I take it with a grain of salt and assume some of it is false, but like the game two truths and a lie, we have to guess. |
Wow. The crazies have been out in force lately on DCUM. First it's the reincarnated child and now aliens.
Yes, other intelligent life is possible. Until there is clear evidence that aliens are visiting us, then all these claims are bunk. |
For the record, there have been congressional hearings on UFO's. Military personell have testified to unexplainable crafts they have witnessed. |
We're trying to find them, why wouldn't they be trying to find us? Assuming they exist, of course, and that they are more technologically advanced. I hope they are out there and are waiting until we're more sophisticated (e.g., more technologically advanced, less religious) before they make themselves known. |
There are reasonable explanations for what they thought they saw that don't involve aliens or advanced technology. What the UAP report said was that they can't prove it one way or another thus the reason they are classified as unidentified. Still not clear evidence. Also, if you want to rely on Congress, this is the same body where MTG believes that the government can control the weather and Hank Johnson thought an island could capsize. |
Congressional hearings aren’t exactly the gold standard for serious thought. |
Maybe not, but congressional hearings are where serious matters are discussed and often decided upon. |
If only the space lasers would come for MTG. |
Interesting. I have a friend who as a child lived on a remote farm. He said one evening he had to fetch something from the barn when he encountered an orb-like light. He froze in his steps and when he tried to move, the orb moved as well. He says it “floated” and moved very fast. He was terrified and ran to the house where his family mocked him about “seeing a ghost.” He said for years his sisters teased him about it till one of his sisters saw the same thing (this was years later) and finally believed him. It’s a really strange story (I know it sounds totally fake). But he swears he saw this roundish/oval shaped light that tried to follow him. |
Could it be a ball lightning? I saw one as a kid and it looked very similar to what you described. |
There may be some crazies in Congress, but not a whole committee of crazies. The subject of investigation of some committees may turn out to be ill-advised, but not crazy. With so many sightings, it would be crazy for congress not to investigate. |
Congress also had closed meetings on the topic along with public. You can do the research yourself. |
