Kevin,

Congratulations on your Ph.D. I look forward to reading your new
book. I have followed the abduction enigma for many years but I
remain in the "questioning center" about it.

Your post makes me wonder what parallels there may be between
people reporting Alien Abduction and Satanic Ritual Abuse. I
haven't heard much about Satanic abuse in recent years and I
have been under the assumption that most cases proved groundless
and may have been the products of fundamental fears and
overactive imaginations. I have not been interested enough in
the subject to research it. My guess may be far from the truth.
I am trying to understand your above statement.

Have people told horrifying satanic ritual events without
hypnosis that have been proven factually true? What was the
nature of the plaintiff's charges in the lawsuit where one
"victim" won $2M in Illinois? Was that for the doctors leading
into a hypnotic fantasy? What parallels do you see between the
origin and etiology of the alien abduction enigma and cases of
Satanic abuse? Are any mentioned in the book?

I certainly don't condone lying but Glen Dennis sure did
a lousy job of it. He couldn't keep his lies straight. He
violated the first "principle" of a con artist.
