Right. 95% of UFO sightings are subsequently explained as natural or man made phenomenon. The other 5% are certainly the same thing.

UFO stories are a deepstate diversion by a craven elite that thinks that Trump supporters believe in UFOs and other conspiracy theories.

My own take - how would space craft flying near the speed of light survive trillions of collisions with space dust and micro-meteorites?

Every grain of sand would explode with the power of many pounds of TNT when it struck the hull of a space ship.

That’s ridiculous. They put it in cruise and activate a force field.

Agree with the first statement, not so sure on the second because something has to be flying the UFO’s. They may or may not be aliens, they maybe here from the beginning, the fallen ones. All these craft can’t all be manmade or we have an alternate civilization that is a century ahead of our reality technology wise.

You probably think you can’t be hypnotized.

“1. There are UFOs. 2. They are not space aliens”

I agree with you on #1.

On #2 and #3 there is no evidence so far to confirm or deny either. We just don’t know.

[and what spices and herbs are needed]

If it tastes like chicken, I’m guessing 11 herbs and spices

I would encourage you to read this book:

https://www.amazon.com/Structure-Scientific-Revolutions-Thomas-Kuhn/dp/0226458083

One generation’s “crazy science fiction” often turns into a future generation’s science fact.

The people who make it happen are blessed with something called “imagination”.

In honor of this discussion I have changed my tagline.

LOL. My favorite argument for there being aliens among us is “how dare we be so arrogant as to think we’re the only intelligent beings in the universe!!”

You can call all these folks crazy if you want—but if you want to listen to their stories here they are.

“My post did mention the outer space creatures.”

This is the post I responded to:

“Finally someone with brains speaking out about this fictionalized UFO nonsense.”

Now look in there and tell me where you spot anything at all about outer space creatures?

#3 there is no evidence so far to confirm or deny either. We just don’t know.

Number 1 is not my input.

Number 3 is. That ‘they have always been here’ has lots of evidence, if one chooses to see it. UAPs go back to Biblical times and beyond. Way back, people were recording them. Certainly there are paintings from the Middle Ages that clearly show them.

#3 gets around the whole ‘aliens from another planet/star system’ business, around the ‘faster than light’ problems, etc.

#3 has the only tangible evidence that some one did something, but was not modern humans. There are structures all over the planet that we cannot duplicate, yet we are expected to believe hunter gatherers build them. No one can explain how hunter gatherers moved and placed exactly 200 ton stones, for example.

Thanks. I don’t really have an opinion on the whole alien thing.

Weird posts, just read post 33 again.
Seeing weird stuff or thinking you are, does not mean space aliens are flying around, which is what your post 22 implied.

“Seeing weird stuff or thinking you are...”

So you question the mental and technical reliability of highly trained pilots and others of superior intellect who have seen, chased, taken videos, etc. of UFOs.

Could you give us a little of your resume that entitles you to assume superiority pver all these people?
