UFO's

I have been hearing the stories all of my life. Saucer shapes, cylinder shapes, deltas, bright, fast moving multicolored lights that make sharp turns at high speeds in the sky or rising out of the oceans. The reports are ubiquitous. And I have to say that I find it all fascinating. I have read volumes on the UFO phenomenon. It is very entertaining above everything else. I am fascinated by these things that ordinary people experience every day, but cannot be explained. I am fascinated by the need of the authorities, whoever they might be, to explain it all away in some trivial fashion. It all reeks of conspiracy and secrecy and the idea of "what are they not telling us". I also find the whole abduction phenomenon more than passing strange because so many people have experienced it. It has ruined peoples lives and made a handful wealthy.

Where am I with all this? Do I "believe" in UFO's? Is alien abduction a reality?

The answer is yes to both questions, but with an explanation. and I probably should write a book about it (:^))

There are things in our skies every day that I cannot identify. Maybe someone can. I cannot. One such event occurred last summer. I had arrived at work. I had just exited my truck. It was still dark. I felt prompted to look up at the stars from the parking lot. It was a clear, dark early morning star field. I was looking straight up, directly overhead. The stars were beautiful, but I noticed that one of them was moving west to east at a fairly high rate of speed. The object looked like all the other stars; it was a pinpoint of light, but it was moving. There was no apparent exhaust trail. It was just moving fast. In just a split second, this moving star veered north - a 90 degree turn at high speed. It then overtook another motionless "star" and that star disappeared. It was like pacman. Then it continued north and blinked out of view.

Explain that one. I cannot. It was very weird.

My experience with abduction is very limited too. I pretty much just chalk it up to bad dreams because it mostly happens when I'm trying to sleep. Sometimes it's like I leave my body. I see things and people that were but are no more. There is more I could say here but I wont. You might know me and be thinking that I need committal, or at the very least, some counseling. I think I'm fine.

So yes, I think both of these phenomena are real. I just do not accepts the conventional explanations for the sources for the phenomenon from either the believers or the debunkers. While I do believe the government may well be responsible to some extent with experimental aircraft; I think much of this could have a spiritual, demonic origin. Still it fascinates me. I am drawn to study it. I would actually like to take a vacation and go in search of UFO's. A trip through southern Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona and Nevada would be 'da bomb. Some day I'm gonna do it.
