Well stated. The debunkers credibility is now at such an historical all-time low, one has to wonder if THEY even believe their own clap-trap anymore!! If so, they would be the only ones that do!! Great reply!! In article <4426539ffe4a2094d5bdc803109f6255@remailer.frell.eu.org>, Fritz Wuehler says...

I could out debunker Klass and Sagan together. But the scientific data was there, from thousands of crop circles, the thousands of trace cases where the ET craft lands. The tens of thousands of animal mutilations and abductions (all worldwide); thousands of alien implants, false pregnancies. The tens of thousands of released military documents, testimony of hundreds of ex military personnel, and thousands of videos, pictures, NASA leaks, etc. etc. etc.Saying that does not make it true. You must support your wild assertions with verifiable evidence if you want anyone to take you seriously (which, obviously, nobody does at present).Hey, Rembrandt, count me out for a start. There is nothing more arrogant than the assumption that your point of view is the right one, therefore everyone by definition must agree with it, or they will (obviously!) not be taken seriously. The rigid standards of 'evidence' that are demanded, i.e., crashed saucers, alien bodies etc., are totally ureasonable, but debunkers capitalise on it to the hilt, while at the same time seeking to discredit the witness and UFO experiencer at every opportunity. I don't call that 'scientific', where combined weight of witness testimony and circumstantial evidence is ignored, in favour of the so-called 'extraordinary evidence' demanded by Carl Sagan. Why don't you include in your 'evidence', the reams of blacked-out documents unearthed by diligent researchers, the obfuscations, harrassment, threats, monitoring, and continual obstacles placed in the way of those who make diligent efforts to uncover the truth? the testimony of whistleblowers and former insiders who have been ignored, ridiculed, and slated at every turn? The painstaking research of people like W.C. Levengood whos work is largely ignored? So the government knows nothing about it all, huh? do, please, give me a break. People like you never acknowledge anything other than your own impossible standards, which you seek to impose on everyone whos point of view differs from your own. This is supposed to be 'science.' But you use supposedly 'scientific' protocols like weapons, and you are no better than a mediaeval inquisitor engaged in a witch-hunt, zealous for your religion, intolerant of those who differ. So I'll carry on making 'wild' assertions, and perceiving the world as a place where UFOs and coverups are a strong probablilty. If I'm not taken seriously by you, I'm not going to weep buckets over it.
