Random forum fighting thread

No, sorry, I was just trying to be funny.

I knew that, but being kind, I ignored the attempt at humour.  

So you don't believe in UFOs?

No, not UFOs either. I don't mean I'm convinced there's nothing anomalous in UFO reports. But I'm not a believer.

Then again, why is Steve001 so called? Is he just a prototype?

Hm. It’s hard to imagine a precursor.

Well, how's about taking a look at this? The full 5+ hrs of interviews is available on the documentary UFUs & Nukes The Secret Link Revealed, on Amazon Prime.

There are a significant number of these men interviewed by Robert Hastings. They were missile men, charged with looking after and if needs be, firing the USs ICBMs. Now I really would struggle to find more sensible people, they would have been tested extremely thoroughly before achieving the positions they once held, they held 'Top Secret' and higher clearances. 

This short vid is just a taster of the main documentary. These are serious minded, cool headed individuals who report their experiences, as well as their thoughts on things. Decades after they happened, they kept quiet about them until now.

Pssst is of a similar mind to me, in that he believes them. That is why I think he is a valuable member of the forum. I would find it very difficult to call these men liars, would you?

Sorry, but I'll really have to plead lack of time. When I get a chance, I need to finish reading those double-slit papers, and then there's the book on hypnotism someone kindly suggested, and I also have an unopened book on that telepathic South American tribe that I bought on impulse ...

Mmmm. Look, I'm sorry I ignored your humour, really sorry. I formally apologise.  

Just promise that you'll try to find the time.   I put it on one of the UFO threads too. 

I'd really be interested in what you have to say about it.

Gentlemen (and ladies), you can't talk nicely and cooperate in here. This is the fight thread.

To be honest, I saw the comment about 5 hours of interviews and didn't see that the video was only 10 minutes, so I just had a look.

I agree it's interesting, and some of these reports seem very hard to explain. I don't think they are lying, though of course there can be problems of recollection after such a long period of time, and problems of perception in the first place.

To give my own example, last year I discovered to my surprise that there was a story about a UFO having crashed in the 1960s on the outskirts of the village where I grew up. I looked into it a bit, but there didn't seem to be much in the way of hard evidence.

The interesting thing is that I asked an elderly local man whether he knew anything about it, and although he knew only what he'd read in the newspapers, he told me his own story of having seen five stationary objects like orange dinner plates in the sky, early one morning in the 1950s when he was cycling to work. As he looked at them a lorry driver stopped and remarked that the objects hadn't moved. I'm sure he wasn't making the story up, and it was obviously something very much out of the ordinary, which had turned him into a believer in UFOs.

So I wouldn't dismiss it. But I think it's quite a big step from inexplicable objects in the sky to ETs and all their paraphernalia.

I think Psst is sincere is what he posts. I find it interesting when someone has a very strong viewpoint. And there is certainly a lot of entertainment value--aliens! Channeling! And a lot of what Pssst says isn't out of line with the theosophists and similar groups. 

I don't think we can or should expect everyone to defend their viewpoint with rational, logically constructed arguments. Sometimes a viewpoint is just a viewpoint and the best way to see it expressed is through the eyes of the one who is living it.

I think it is fair for someone to respond to such a poster and say frankly, I think your posts represent the worst of new-age clap trap. 

Pssst can really wind people up though. He doesn't shy away from pushing the old buttons. 

I'm for inclusion on the forum. The forum has enough separate areas for discussion that people with divergent viewpoints should be able to find a place to discuss their interests with people who are congenial to discussion.

To clear the record, I never post anything I don't believe to be true or know to be true.

Well, that's after watching a ten minute video. Watch the whole documentary. 

It wasn't simply inexplicable objects in the sky. It was the interference with the missiles too, it was the cover ups, the disappearance of paperwork etc. 

Why do most people remember where they were when big events happen, such as 9/11 or Diane's death. In my own case when the Scotland football team qualified for something.(My own attempt at humour) It's because they are important events. These events were huge in these men's lives. That's why I think they won't easily forget. They were highly trained, educated thoughtful men. This comes across in the interviews.
