After watching this video on YouTube video...



I couldn't help but ask myself "why spend billions of dollars in machines that will supposedly find alien lifeforms if the U.S. government in gonna intervene and cover it up anyway?"

And wouldn't these scientist and engineers who work on these machines be better off doing projects that will benefit the earth more than a wild goose chase?

There's most likely no aliens and whatever people have encountered is too strange and the officials too unsure of themselves on just what it is to make any claims that would rivet public attention.

That sounds like the Fermi paradox already.

I'd just recommend actually researching the phenomena if you're interested and getting back to us. If you want any suggestions from when I did it I could point you toward some authors. What you seem to be missing is what a bowl of soup the whole thing is and there's ample authors, ample lectures from everything from ufologists to esotericists that tend to agree roughly on Jacques Vallee's early assessments of the matter.

The most credibility seems to lie in the likelihood that we're seeing what we expect to see, just like we saw fairies when we expected to see that (assuming anything is happening at all).

Or maybe, just maybe...we've never actually been visited. Why would a race so advanced simultaneously keep themselves so hidden that our scientists have found no trace and yet do such a poor job of it, continually screwing up and raising the question of whether they exist? I mean, that would *prompt* people to search for them.

Unless of course, it's a test... ;-)

If you think that the government can cover up something that big in this day and age, you have too much faith in their ability.

Any discovery will be found out and tweeted around. The general public will know that a "strange, potentially alien signal" has been found before the government will, good luck covering that up

I believe that extraterrestrial life is out there, and that we have made contact with it. I don't really have substantial evidence to back this, but I like the idea of it. Besides, chances are much greater that this is the case than that it isn't. :D

The last video from ODD TV exposes some realities of the so-called Alien-Agenda.
Project Blue-Beam would be halted in its tracks if everybody were to distrust NASA,
because clearly, NASA cannot be trusted. I mean, they get BILLIONS of dollars,
each year in tax-funding, yet they LOSE some of the MOST IMPORTANT records,
such as tapes that are related to Moon-Landings.

I don't know about you, but if I were running a business (well, actually, I do run one),
ESPECIALLY when it came to expensive ventures, I would make SURE that,
not only the protocols are to be air-tight, but EVERYTHING run the RIGHT way,
talking like State-of-the-Art manner. SURELY they can at least think of THAT,
when they get BIIIIIIIIIIILLIONS in funding, I mean, has NASA even been...
...gasp... AUDITED ? See, THIS is why Professional Conspiracy Theorists,
cannot find good reason to be trusting in NASA, nor its alleged sciences.
BILLIONS of $$$ yet still manages to lose EXTREMELY IMPORTANT data-captures.

Also, turned out, that just like politicians, scientists can be bought and paid for, too.
Just like the priests and clergy and preachers of churches are also prone to sell out.
Humans, man, easily becoming a sell-out, regardless of what positions they get,
whether it be that of a church-leader, scientific-leader, government-politician, etc.

That's right, the US is the only country in the entire world where aliens have made contact, abducted people, or are secretly hidden by the government. What garbage. :roll:

And how can you be so certain of that?

I mean, If Americans alone are easily manipulable when you tamper with their 'rights' who says you cannot manipulate them into thinking they're no aliens around?

The question you would ask of any conspiracy is what would be the point?

Also if you understand what is in involved physically landing craft entering our atmosphere. It is implausible that it would not be witnessed by many.

The idea that alien craft landed exatly in a region where they can be hidden/covered up by government makes no sense.

The reasons for doing so don't make a whole lot of sense. They are usually extremely tenuous albeit elaborate. Like most of the conspiracies it usually centres around power/control. The problem is the means doesn't justify the ends. In order to carry out the conspiracy so much resource and capability is needed there is no point, the power can just be wielded as is.

Also self interest and human nature is a major flaw in these theories. The would be so many people involved, it would require an inhuman amount of cooperation it is almost admirable. Yet what is in it for the foot soldiers?

People believe in this because they want to believe it.

The reality is we already know that the site concern development military technology. Some of it no longer in commission, that information isn't even secret anymore.

Our family knows a few NASA scientists down at Ames. They are continuously audited. Their process systems are truly amazing and actually are easy to audit. As are some of their collaboration systems, which are also audit-friendly, and like just about everything they do, released to the public since we pay for them. By that I mean the records, the system code *and* the audits of it all are released.

Insofar as scientists being bought, the biggest strength of science in my opinion is the inherent self-correction that is baked right in. Data isn't considered "good" until it has passed enough scrutiny, and that includes being used as an assumption for other tests (if it was bad, this is where it would become glaringly bad). Most fields are pretty narrow and everyone is dependent upon each other's findings. When something doesn't fit, it is quickly sussed out as such.

Becouse there is mkre to the world and science than just the USA.
Any contact will also be noticed by other agencies. Europe has their own surveillance sattelites, as do russia and china; all of these would jump at the chance to expose the US from hiding something that big.
And this is aside from all universities and amateurs that are also actively looking for contact in an attempt to become famous.

Perhaps the US government can keep its own scientists and civillians under control (perhaps, but i dont believe they can), but they don't have such control over the entire world.


That said, i do believe that intelligent life is out there, and basic life to be abundant, but we haven't found any, yet.
