UFO's - A Bizarre Subject

Do you believe in UFO’s?
Are we alone?
Who are they?
Why are they here?
Where are they from?

How do we respond to questions like these? Have you ever met someone first-hand that had an experience with a UFO or a sighting? I have. I met the family in 1995. For this reason I can say that it only takes one white crow to prove that all crows aren’t black. Even if every single account I have seen on TV or read about turned out to be a hoax, I know one personally that was not. They spent at least two hours in their encounter.

Empiricism

Every documentary, story, movie, encounter concerning UFO’s has a basic common denominator – they are based on EMPIRICISM - The five senses.

In a world of mathematics, we find that in three angles of a triangle, the angles total 180 degrees. Every single triangle in the world totals 180 degrees. Since the beginning of time, every triangle that ever existed in the world totaled 180 degrees. It has never been less or more – always the same.

However, I do a presentation before a live audience, and draw a triangle consisting of three straight lines, having three angles, and they total 230 degrees. Individuals can even bring their own protractor and measure them. I have begun a new cult now with a following of over 100 million (just kidding). So now I defy what we are accustomed to seeing in our world. If no one understood it, I would probably be branded as a heretic.

What is my point? We live in a world where everything we observe, we define with our five senses: See, Hear, Taste, Touch and Smell. In hours and hours of stories, documentaries, movies about UFO’s I always find the same thing: The sightings, the eyewitness accounts, the information - is always based on our five senses.

When we see a magician perform some illusion, he demonstrates something before our eyes that defies explanation. But that is because he seems to override or suspend our laws of physics. Even today, many of these illusionists simply perform a "trick", but are branded as heresy and witchcraft simply because the illusion is not explained. We often shy away from them because their "tricks" don’t "compute" with our natural reasoning. Regardless of what people’s philosophy of life is, we all live by Empiricism.

My father was an atheist all his life. His whole world was based on his five senses. But on his deathbed, he laid there, unable to talk. Just as he was about to expire, he held his hands in front of him with a look of horror on his face – as if something extraordinary was happening, that he was witnessing parts of his body passing into a spirit realm – and for the first time he realized there was a world beyond the five senses.
However, the strange thing about this is that when you talk about another "dimension" or "realm" outside this world of "empiricism", you are accused of getting "religious". It is simply a world beyond our own, but this "spiritual" realm is synonymous with "religious" for some reason – and many don’t want to talk about it because there are so many religious beliefs that are often contradictory.

At one time, people were burned at the stake for finding facts that go against the "norm". When Copernicus discovered that the Sun was in the center of our Solar System, it rocked the world. If I was to live in the 16th century, and drew a triangle that totaled 230 degrees, I would be accused of challenging Church dogma and would be ostracized, exorcized and vaporized.

When something comes along that travels 15,000 mph, makes right angle turns that supersede our laws of inertia, momentum and gravity, and have a propulsion system we don’t understand, we immediately:
1-Go into denial and refuse to believe that it exists, and live in a plastic bubble.
2-Pigeonhole it because it doesn’t "fit" our logic, and burn the one who witnessed it at some stake for "religious heresy".
Or:
3-Challenge it, study it, analyze it and draw some VERY interesting conclusions.
