Melanie,

You seem to have misinterpreted what I said completely, and
gotten really hostile in the process.

I am not saying that the abduction phenomenon does not exist,
nor am I saying that it is 100% subjective.  I'm simply saying
that to insist that the beings involved in the phenomenon are
"aliens" from space is a very simplistic interpretation.

These things have been abducting, contacting, and interacting
with humans since before written history, and have presented
themselves to us in forms which we could accept into the mythology
of the times.  Today space aliens fit our mythology, so that's how
we see them.  In the past we saw them as trolls, elves, fairies,
leprechauns, demons, sprites, gods, etc. etc. etc.

I just don't think we have any compelling reason to accept that
we are dealing with space aliens, any more than that we are dealing
with the king of elfland.

We should admit that we don't know what they are or where/when they
come from.  And we must be willing to admit that the experiences
have subjective as well as objective aspects.

The one thing which comes down to us from the past and from our
accumulated folklore is a simple and important message:  They can
not be trusted.  Whatever they say they are, wherever they say
they are from, why they say they are here; these are things that
it is very dangerous to take their word for.

Bob
