Not squat for real proof!

Just a fun story to tell,,,perhaps a bit spooky, perhaps feeding into the anti-government feelings of some who were tempted to believe any story anyway.....

But as for any real proof?.....zip, nothing, zero......

No one has ever stood up and held something in his hands and said, "This could not have been made by our civilization"....

nope...

So this means that if you are one of them people that really have a deep personal need to believe no matter what, then you will have to satisfy yourself with your proof being just a bunch of stories to tell around the camp fire.

because that's all you got....

I know what I witnessed, and I know what the data says. I don't draw conclusions prior to examination. You shouldn't either. When Walter debated Madalyn Murray O'Hair, he told her that a lawyer is always willing to look at the evidence. That is my advice to you. Also, Walter believed in UFO's. He saw one once. I used to have his c***ette "UFO's: Friend, Foe or Fantasy."

[pilgrim1411]

I do believe the UFO phenomena is demonic.

[alanmolstad]

again....on any given night the average person can go out at night, look up at the stars, and see things they just don't understand.

men have looked at funny odd things in the night sky for millions of years.

But it always turns out to be just nothing...but even a little bit of uncertainty in the mind of an amateur can be more than enough to feed an active imagination.

A falling star becomes a angel sent from heaven to earth...

A weather balloon becomes a visitor from Mars.

A reflection in a car window becomes absolute proof of extraterrestrials...


But is that any real proof?....no.
There has never been even the slightest offering of real proof.

All the UFO nuts have are stories...and fuzz photos.

Its the same for the nuts that believe in Bigfoot....(great stories and fuzzy photos)

and its the same for the nuts that believe in the Loch Ness monster ....

all they ever got is some great stories to tell around the campfire while you sip peppermint schnapps.....and fuzzy photos...

We are not talking about the obvious exaggerations which consist of 80% or more of "sightings." With all that out of the way, I would like to limit this discussion on the evidences which are truly hard to discern (if indeed you have investigated any of that). I personally would like to eliminate ***ertions based solely on subjective opinion, and limit the discussion to evidences and ideas that the experts on the subject are still debating about.

Don't you think that the statement "on any given night the average person can go out at night, look up at the stars, and see things they just don't understand" is a bit exaggerative? If you really believe this, can you prove it by evidence, since this is your ***ertion? Can you go out some night and take some pictures of things you see that you don't understand and post them? This should be relatively easy for you, since "on any given night the average person can go out at night, look up at the stars, and see things they just don't understand". Are you willing to admit this statement is exaggerative, or can you prove it with evidence?

Nope its a fact...

On any given night you can walk outside with your child, and sooner or later that child will ask you some questions that you simply don't know the answer for.

you glance up and see a light moving across the sky.....what is it...
a satellite?
a jet?
a weather balloon?
I dont know...its just a light in the sky that moves.

To me its a mystery that I don't understand, but to others its 100% proof that this world is being visited by men from mars...

100s years ago men looked up at the stars and noticed that while most stars stayed in their locations, some stars moved...and some stars turned around and moved backwards?...and some stars fell out of where they were hanging?

To come up with answers we find books and all sorts of stories about different reasons why such things happened.

My point is that on any night it is normal to see things in the night sky that might cause you to stop and ask, "What is that?".....but that just because we might see something that we cant answer about right away it is no reason to go off all crazy and invent stories of men from mars, or angels falling from heaven.

[alanmolstad]

so,,,is there any proof that UFOs are space visitors?....no

There is nothing to support such ideas.
All there is that is "called proof" are campfire stories.

all the photos of UFOs are always fuzzy.

No person ever stood up with something in their hands and said., "its from a spaceship"

Nope....all they got are some spooky stories to tell around the campfire while drinking some beers, and fuzzy photos.....

alanmolstad,

You obviously have never studied the primary sources. You can make ***ertions all day. There have been over 2,000 Bigfoot sightings in North America, but zero Spiderman sightings. If they are in the same category (non-existent), than the evidence for Bigfoot would be exactly identical with that of Spiderman.

With regard to UFO's, you are not even qualified to have an educated opinion because you don't have enough information. You haven't studied the data.

Pilgrim, Thats silly....

Every year more people claim to be Jesus Christ compared to the number of people that claim to be Hitler.
|But that does not prove squat!.......

The only truth is this:
That all UFO so-called "proof" as well as the so-called BigFoot "proof", is all based on the same one thing in common....They are both based on fuzzy photos and campfire stories and nothing else!


NOTHING else!

I have looked at what is there to be found.
If you have one single case you think is 'real" then show it!

You got a single photo that is proven to be a space ship UFO or not?



Here is the truth on all this stuff.
Back when I was a kid in the 70s there were lots of photos and stories about UFO and Lake monsters.
But that was also back when not everyone had high quality cameras.

That was back when a short 8mm movie about Bigfoot would get people all excited....


But times have changed!

We now live in a worls where almost every person on earth has on them at all times a very high quality camera.
We also live in a time when because of the internet, many people who are experts from all parts of the earth can put to the test any video or photo that someone might say is of a UFO>


and the result?

The result is that photos of UFOs have dropped off the radar....
You never see any new videos of what people claim is a sea monster, or Bigfoot, or a UFO anymore.


You dont see any updated Photos or videos because it has become way too easy for people to put such things to the test and show that are FAKE!

[alanmolstad]

and....


One thing to keep in mind right now is - That we now live in an age where every person on the earth has on their person a Hi-def camera.
The modern cell phone has grown so popular that its now a standard part of every humans life in most all the parts of the world.

And with this, we have seen how many High-def cell phone photos of UFOs?


ZERO?



This is also truewith other things like "Bigfoot"
back in the day where the only camers were the ones with film we would see people showing the media photos that showed fuzzy shotsof Bigfoot, or monsters in lakes, or UFOs in the sky.

But we dont see anyone claiming to have a photo taken by a modern cell phone cameras of the same things anymore.
And do you know why?

No one knows yet how to fake them easy.
People have tried, but because everything you do on a computer or on a camera tends to leave a tel-tail footprint, we just dont see the many faked photos anymore like we used to back in the 60s and 70s

[alanmolstad]

Update to this topic:

within the last month there was a bit of a stir caused by the new video showing a UFO being followed by a airplane.

While we all can wish this was a true case of a UFO from another world, we also have to admit it sufferes from the same problem all photos and videos of Bigfoot suffer from.

They are all are fuzzy....
Just never a clear video...

Billions of great cameras in the hands of billions of people on this earth....and all we ever see is the most fuzzy photos and videos of what could just as well be a toy hanging from a string.

Well, except for things that can be explained.

What i mean is that i dont thing people are seeing demons, or spirits.

People may see lights in the sky...but thats fine, there is a lot of rock up there to see.

However for the most part, I believe that mostly what is going on are fake sightings..invented to sound correct....but just invented all the same.

a few people see falling stars...or make a mistake at what they see....
But in the end..no one stands up and holds something up in their hands as real solid proof and says, "This fell off a UFO from another world"

[reality10]

This is a fascinating topic to me because I happen to have an interest in space/astronomy.

Before I go into my thoughts on UFOs, I want to begin by stating (as an Evangelical Christian Believer saved by the blood of Christ) that contrary to what many others believe, I do not subscribe to the belief that other life possibly existing on another planet is a contradiction to what scripture teaches. Quite frankly, from what I have found in my studies, the scripture is silent about life on any other planet except this one. But, that does not mean that it doesn't exist. On the flip side, that silence does not mean that there is life on another planet either. To the plain point, we simply do not know and may never know this side of heaven and that might just be how God wanted it.

Now, having said that, I also want to be very clear about my belief that In the beginning, God created the heavens and the Earth. (Genesis 1:1) The "heavens" in this context (and Hebrew translation of Genesis 1:1) meaning the "cosmos"...i.e., "space". Therefore, if there IS life on another planet, God is also the God of that life as well. Evolutionists would like us to believe that the discovery of life on another planet would automatically void the teaching of the scripture. Nothing could be further from the truth. God's said in Isaiah 45:12
It is I who made the earth and created mankind on it. My own hands stretched out the heavens; I marshaled their starry hosts. God also said in Genesis 1:16
And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.. So, if there is life on another planet, God created that life also and is Lord over it just as he is Lord over us on Earth.

Now (rambling over). What are UFOs? Quite simple. We don't know. I will say this, I don't believe they are "fake" (at least not all of them). But the reality is, nobody (at least as far as we know) really knows what a "UFO" really is. After all, "UFO" stands for "Unidentified Flying Object". If we knew they were alien spacecraft, they would no longer be called "UFOs". But, to this day, they are still a mystery. All we can do is speculate....and speculate I will also. I believe (as others have said on this thread) that they are demonic in nature. Many reasons why this is a reasonable conclusion that I will not speak long windedly on. However, I will share with you a youtube channel that I ran across by accident recently that really made me more certain of it.

In the following youtube channel, you will see a very interesting individual who seems to have a theme within his life. That theme being, he appears obsessed with paranormal activity (spiritism) and UFOlogy. Coincidence? I tend to think not.

Check out his story (somewhat sad story) and watch his videos....

http://youtube.com/timw1959

I got the shivers the first time I browsed through it. This channel made me all the more convinced that UFOs are demonic in nature. Here is a guy who tinkers with spiritism and the results included is UFO activity.

Check it out for yourselves and give me your thoughts.

Woe, God knows for sure and tdidymas may have been absent for some time now but hope his paranormal interest has taken on new endeavors.

I like the approach here – alot! I’m with you as far a possible proof of the above occurring with the exception of a last worst-case possibility.

I think there is both a pro & con to this. By that I mean from scripture’s outlook is in support of Alan’s refusals outside of this distant “evidence”.

There is so much dedicated for us to not being deceived by any man. You know the story on evidence from time to time today that an American court will not allow digital anything visually as evidence, only film. Extreme levels of craft have played into our lives like ducks on-a-pond, money being the bench-rest.

I still believe the Lord cares for the flock, where is written that those “signs” (Luke 21:25) will occur in perplexing proportions against God’s people? The Church is given escape by prayer:

“Be on guard, so that your hearts will not be weighted down with dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of life, and that day will not come on you suddenly like a trap; for it will come upon all those who dwell on the face of all the earth. “But keep on the alert at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that are about to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man. (Luke 21:34-36)

Just because we are His, it doesn’t exclude us from battles along the way, which are also His. But to re-inspect the record what happened to the Lord as He was indeed “taken” (Mt 4:8). If we want a defense for this not occurring at any given time under the permission of God the Father, nor think it’s possibility of being a physical transport, I would think a little elusive, it otherwise remains pretty much an impossibility.

Goodness me, if he can change himself into an "angel of light" (II Corinthians 11:14) and have another "seven sons of Sceva" (Acts 19) physical encouter with a demon, why such a stretch for someting in this realm?

So, not sure why you say this about me, or how you judge me based on my posts. You think I am overly interested in the paranormal?

Hi, No, and no, I don't know you. But am glad there is other current at work, I think, ,
