Why don't you quit analyzing the thing you saw and just accept the fact that you saw something. You are going to drive yourself crazy if you continue to analyze it. IF you are meant to know "why" you will find out. How many people do you think just wish they could have seen what you saw? Do you think by analyzing if continuously, that you will make it go away? Why does there have to be a reason or purpose for your having seen it? Is there such a thing to you as just being in the right place at the right (wrong??) time? To heck with the "endless controversy," theory. Just be content to know that you can add yourself to the "ever growing" list of "sightee's." <g> I had ONE sighting and that was back in 1967. I didn't ask why? I wondered if I would ever have another one. Well, so far, I haven't. Does it have to mean something everytime you see a rainbow after a rainstorm? Or a Lightning bolt during a thunderstorm? No, it doesn't. It is just a by-product of the event itself. Do you lay awake at night trying to figure out why lighning strikes? I doubt it. If it is possible that UFOs are some, yet to be understood, natural phenomena, then time will provide the answers. Most finds are "accidental." They occurr while researching something else. If this is a natural phenomena, then it will eventually be discovered, probably by accident. I don't automatically suscribe to the idea that UFOs are "alien" spacecraft. I don't know what they are. I KNOW there are a lot of PARANOID people who think that UFOs and the ???? within them are either Angels or demons. They see them as Saviours or our People and Planet. While others see them as Destroyers of the human race and scavengers of the planet. Each "abductee" has a different prespective. One says they are not a threat to humanity, but wish to help us save our world and advance our species. Others are terrified and claim they have been raped and abused by Reptilians, Tall Greys, etc. How can there be such a diversity of ALIEN Intervention? If one is interested in Helping Save Humanity and the Earth, why would they sit by and and watch other races rape and pillage us? Something just doesn't add up here. You can't have it both ways. If they are advanced enought to travel through space/Time/dimension, they are smart enought to know that there are others here with intentions opposite of their own. Why would they allow such to continue? I am moving more and more toward the idea that "most" of the Abduction phenomena is nothing more than pure hyseria and paranoia! Escapists! Tired of the day to day oppression by governments, businesses, employers, spouces, children, etc., etc., etc. So, they allow their desire for someone or something to blame it on, to manufacture "aliens!" By the same token, those of a basic religious faith, manufacture "Angels" or "good aliens," to help them cope with these daily oppressive life events. To close this tirade <G> I again say, don't spend so much time and energy analyzing your sighting to death. Also, don't let these armchair investigators discourage you from doing your research. They don't have the answers. They just like to impress others with the idea that they do. It is strictly an EGO thing. IF they had the answers, they wouldn't be here arguing every day. They would be on the TV and Lecture Tour, as well as in the world newspapers providing proof positive of what they know. Instead, they have nothing but their belligerent opinion and constantly express it to belittle those with whom they disagree. There are no "experts" in UFOLOGY. How can there be EXPERTS in a field which "Science/Military/Political" establishments refuse to acknowledge? If it is ever acknowledged by those establishments, then we can start to accquire data and develop "experts," in "A new field of Science." Until then, each person, regardless of whom they are, or what they profess to Know, is just as equal as anyone else. To date, whether we like or not; apprecite it or not; agree or not; UFOLOGY IS "SCIENCE FICTION." Circumstantial Evidence is not EVIDENCE! REgards, Mike C.
