    extract:
    Modern myth and religion

    UFOs are part of the landscape of conspiracy theories, including accounts of abduction by aliens and crop circles created by aliens. I remain skeptical that intelligent beings with vastly superior technology would travel trillion of miles just to press down our wheat.

    It’s useful to consider UFOs as a cultural phenomenon. Diana Pasulka, a professor at the University of North Carolina, notes that myths and religions are both means for dealing with unimaginable experiences. To my mind, UFOs have become a kind of new American religion.

    Why are you forever lying river? Of course a small percentage remain as UFO's....It's only the gullible and the conspiracy nuts that then try and equate that to Alien controlled nonsense.
    Many, many many other possibilities...sprites river, mirages, river, illusions river, trick of the mind river, trickery and/or scullduggery river, atmospheric disturbances river, tricks with regards to the refraction/reflections of light river, and many other things you would most probably be ignorant of river.
    Show me an Alien, or an Alien artifact, and I'll accept we have had visitations. Otherwise, like the rest of the kooks, you have nothing.

    You know perfectly well that:
    • it is the height of foolhardiness to demand that another forum member go away,
    • troll has a specific meaning, and you have used it wrong,
    • you are in the wrong place to try to make your case, and can't be bothered to make it in the right place.

    Please reread post 4568 before responding. You must have missed it.

    And please stay on-topic. This thread is about space aliens.

    Of course you are in the right!! You are the one proposing Aliens of some sort or another, or dimensional being, or some other manufactured entity, and then some magic guy in the sky creating everything, and conspiracies in general, and ghosts etc etc
    You q-reeus, and of course river, are the only ones making any sense at all.

    Yes, lots of people see things in the sky that they can't identify. So?

    Straw man. Nobody denies that people report seeing UFOs.

    They know. They've been shown the facts of their sightings here over and over again, resulting in detailed and multiply-witnessed descriptions of ufos from metallic disks and 40 ft tic tacs to glowing ovals and black triangles. You can lead a skeptic to the truth but you can't make him think.

    No, no, no MR! Sure there have been a few "unexplained" even weird sightings, just as sometimes weather phenomena and mirages and such can offer weird apparitions/illusions, and most scientists worthy of the name accept that we should not be alone, considering the extent and content of the Universe. But they also understand that such a age old eternal question, is probably the most important issue facing mankind [is that sexist?

    ] and as such we need some really conclusive, extraordinary evidence. But I have relayed all that before, and you and river and the like minded, simply disregard it.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westall_UFO

    Came across this

    The Westall UFO encounter is an event that occurred on 6 April 1966 in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia

    Went looking for a debunk but didn't find one

    From what I read my take
    • it was a weather (or atmospheric equipment testing balloon)
    • keep quiet because we don't want public to think we (RAAF) might drop a experiment on you
    What suprise me is the LACK of evidence. While the balloon (?) landed at the school surely it would have been seen on its way there?

    The landing spot seems to small to qualify as a alien piloted

    So if you have a debunked link would like to reading other thoughts about

    Yeah well what is not focused on by many is the maneuver ability of these Air Craft . Which is absolutely beyond known G-Force safety for any known state of the science and art , military aircraft . And Acceleration and Speeds .

    These Air Craft are State of the Most Advanced Science known to that Being .

    Yep, unidentified, unknown origin, possibly faulty equipment, illusions, atmospheric phenomena, all a possibility. Including btw, but as yet not certain, Alien controlled craft. It's UNIDENTIFIED!!!!!
