MY SKEPTICISIM ON UFOs AND ALIENS

October 17, 2010

Although some people often label me as a UFO skeptic, I have never
been (and will never be) a UFO debunker.

I have researched the phenomenon for more than 45 years, and although
I can confidently state that there appears to be no physical,
tangible, irrefutable evidence whatsoever that we have ever been
visited by physical extraterrestrials in physical UFOs, I have never
been (and will never be) a debunker.

Well, you just made Sir Arthur C.B.E. Wholeflaffers A.S.A proud !!!

P.S.
Debunkers are not your Problem.
Debunkers gave us Debate.
Debunkers helped us Grow.
Debunkers gave us a cushion if things got too KoOky.
Debunkers gave us a Laugh.

The UFO phenomenon and the "belief in UFOs" (as physical spacecraft
piloted or maneuvered by physical aliens from elsewhere in the
universe) are separate matters.

It is highly likely that the U.S. intelligence communities as well as
the military have manipulated (and in some instances even created) a
segment of the population's "belief in UFOs" as part of counter
intelligence operations. Many defense contractors still continue to
create cover stories to conceal or detract attention away from
public's scrutiny of sensitive defense programs.
Yes, people's "belief in UFOs" is a very important factor in all of
this.

What about alien visitations?
As most UFO enthusiasts have heard already, theoretical physicist
Stephen Hawking (one of the most brilliant minds of our time) recently
made several statements suggesting that there OUGHT to be
extraterrestrial life and civilization elsewhere in this vast
universe.

But he also made a puzzling statement (a statement which has not been
popular with most UFO enthusiasts) saying that "aliens have never
visited earth in UFOs and will never visit earth in UFOs".
In fact, this has angered a lot of UFO enthusiasts.
But were I to choose between Stephen Hawking and the so-called UFO
"experts", I would definitely go with Stephen Hawking.

Yes, it is true that I consider myself a UFO skeptic when it comes to
alien visitations.
I was a strong proponent of the E.T. hypothesis of the origins of UFOs
up till the late 1970s when I began to abandon that theory. That was
when I became a UFO skeptic.
But I consider myself a "healthy" skeptic.
That is to say, my policy is to give an opportunity to any sincere
researcher to express their viewpoints, even if I may not agree with
them.

Do I believe in the existence of "underground bases"?
Yes, certainly I believe that there may be "underground bases", large
and small, in many locations but personally I tend to believe that
those are government/military/scientific installations or laboratories
that have nothing to do with aliens.
I still maintain that if, for example, the alleged Dulce underground
installations in New Mexico really exist, they would most likely be
related to the U.S. government's biological warfare research
facilities.
However, as difficult as this may be for me to say, I do not rule out
anything.

Yes, "healthy" skepticism is very important because it does not
completely leave the door closed.
The door must be kept open, even slightly, for any possibility.
I am a believer in open platforms so that people with other viewpoints
could freely express their opinions.

By the way, here is my latest interview (October 22, 2010) I had with
Sheldon Day of The Light of Day Radio Show, talking about all of this:
