At my age . . . having studied the phenomena since 1962 . . .
I'm not
that interested in arguing for the realities of the phenomena.
THAT issue is extremely passe, for me.
The evidence, to me, is soooooooooooooo
EXTENSIVE as to no longer be very rationally logical for anyone that's done sufficient research into it.
I know, I've read all the blather against it.
And Carl Sagan's 'extraordinary claims require extra ordinary evidence' claim doesn't cut it with me--particularly after the documentation that he was a paid shill who
KNEW the realities of the critters and the craft as a paid government disinformation agent.
So, for those who feel compelled to take the stance of the skeptic--help yourself. I may or may not bother responding.
I'm greatly more interested in discussing the implications of the basic outline of the facts as are evident in the literature I've mentioned as well as quality stuff I haven't mentioned.
I'm also, frankly, not that interested in providing a lot of documentation links for my assertions.
http://www.dogpile.com works pretty well. as does
http://www.duckduckgo.comMost of my assertions can be tracked down with due diligence.
The two books I've mentioned by Tom DeLonge and particularly the one by William Tompkins have some new stuff worth discussing. And, they touch on some stuff long known in the literature.
The Pope's pronouncements are readily available and I may dig up the links for the Vatican stuff.
I'd be particularly interested in faithful Roman Catholics discussing such pronouncements from their perspectives.
