Assessing UFO conspiracy theories – Part 8

By admin On March 4th, 2010

Why do so many relatively normal, sane individuals seem to honestly believe in UFO conspiracy theories? They are often lumped together in the same category as Bigfoot crackpots and crop-circle hoaxers. They are often treated as troublemakers and irritants rather than taken seriously in any way. But someone who honestly believes in any conspiracy theory, even a UFO conspiracy theory, is usually a normal, sane person.

We all feel like an alien from another planet at times. We often seem like the only sane person in a world full of lunatics. This can make us feel scared, helpless and even suicidal. Sometimes conspiracy theories, like UFO conspiracy theories, can be a very comforting explanation for why we feel so alienated from our own species and culture.

UFO in the Sky

In the past, our ancestors used mythology and magic in order to try and make some sense of the inherent senselessness of their world. A lot of ancient mythologies like Greek, Babylonian and Jewish mythology begin with Chaos as the first element. Creation was when a Creator put order to Chaos. Chaos is usually portrayed as frightening or somehow evil, while Order was portrayed as just the opposite.

This is still seen today in many ways, like with organized religion, even more organized science and with conspiracy theories. They are a creative coping mechanism to the inherent frightening disorder we see all around us. They help give us sense to the senselessness of life.

In UFO conspiracy theories, fear of being helpless or being lied to by those in charge are manifested. History has taught us about the misery caused by governments lying to people and having complete control over their lives. We still see senseless acts done to promote suffering all of the time. We are caught between the urge to rebel and the urge to quietly comply and risk getting hurt so we can survive.

UFO conspiracy theories give a common bond and a sense of identity and purpose to people. They have found their own community where they are free to express their honest opinions safely. We all need to ask difficult questions in order to stay mentally, spiritually and physically healthy. But it’s very hard to find the right person to ask those questions to.

People who believe in UFO conspiracy theories should not be laughed at or pitied. They should be listened to. Things you believe in (like your chosen Deity) might seem just as laughable and pitiable to them. All mythologies start with a kernel of truth. Perhaps there is something to what they say that needs listening to.

And who knows; if they happen to be right and UFOs have been visiting the Earth with our government’s full consent, breeding hybrids for alien experiments, then at least they can say, “Told you so.”

UFOs: A decade of contact – Part 6

It’s silly to say that UFOs don’t exist. An UFO is an Unidentified Flying Object, so that means that anything that flies and can’t immediately be identified is an UFO, at least at that moment. Nowadays space is full of things added by humans and it has always been full with things put there by God. So there will be lots of things that fly around there and that we can’t identify. So what?

The problem is that the word UFO by most people gets interpreted as a flying disk with aliens or something like that. And that’s a completely different story. Many people can believe that there are aliens and that there are flying disks with beings from another planet. But the problem is that nobody has ever shown any proof of these things. And as long as that proof doesn’t exist I don’t believe in extraterrestrial beings and flying disks. Well, a frisbee is also a flying disk and I do believe in them. And if you paint them fluorescent yellow and throw it in the dark to someone who doesn’t expect it, it’s also a UFO.

In short, UFO is a very general word and in fact it means very little. If people want to be gullible and be scared for all those aliens that’s fine to me. But don’t expect me to believe such things.

Where UFOs come from – Part 7

By admin On February 16th, 2010

UFOs are of an invisible world. In an invisible world, UFOs come out of the blue or black sky and disappear the same way, into a void.

Here follows a clear cut story about two UFOs seen during the day. The UFOs I saw that day were not at all of what was strange that day.

The year was 2000, it was the first Saturday after labor day. It was long Island Carnival and I was laying on my back after jumping’ in the carnival. I was laying on my back behind the bandstand of the Nassau Community College parking lot. It is true that I had consumed a combination of small bottle of Hennessy and an energy drink which tasted similar to a cream liquor. I began to doze off and then I started getting these flashes in my eyes. The flashes were like little bands of electricity or lightning. I opened my eyes and directly above was this white disc-like object. The disc-like object was similar to the color of planes at times as they do fly overhead during the day. The sky was blue. It was one of those perfect September days. The rain did fall later that day in the night but around the time these objects were in the sky, the weather was perfect and visibility was very good.

I jumped up, like a madman, and I stared. The disc-like object was disappearing, turning to white and to the color of a metal-like object. I told some young ladies who were feet away from me to look, there is a UFO up there. I told them it was probably the ancestors. They dismissed me. I then turned to some young boys behind the WLIB bandstand and told them to look. They reacted like children, they just looked at me. I told them, if you want to see a UFO look now. One looked. I asked do you see it, he said, yes. The other boys wanted to see it and he pointed it out to them but they were nonchalant. I looked to the women and told them to look. The Jamaican girls refused, and they at stared me with beady eyes and frozen fear.

I stared at the object and then a smaller version curved down and past by the side of the big one and disappeared. After hovering for a while, the big one just went to the invisible universe.

Has anyone else seen this pattern?
