Why don't you believe Unidentified Flying Objects exist?

Question

1) There are thousands of witnesses with nothing to gain by coming forward, especially commercial pilots and military officers.

2) It basically comes down to who's word do you trust. Do you really believe the official line over these witnesses?

3) If one person saw something, then it could be anything. However, if groups of witnesses are seeing the same thing? Mass hallucination? Are they all mistaken?

4) If you need physical proof, consider these sightings are of things that don't touch the ground. How do you acquire physical evidence?

5) What might a jury conclude? Yes, it is all circumstantial, but the evidence is heavily corroberated.

6) Why don't they land on the White House lawn? If there is an intelligence beyond our own, they would realize that their presence would taint our culture forever, destroying something we could never get back.

I don't know what is going on, I just am not satisfied with what I've heard.

I'm sorry, I can't buy all of these sightings are U.S. defense aircraft since they tend to defy the laws of physics.

Eyewitnesses who have nothing to gain and everything to lose reporting their sighting. Using Ockham's razor" says it best to go with the simplest, most natural explanation. The simplest explanation would be that those individuals and groups actually saw what they had reported.

Answer 1

Of course I do.

But just because it's unidentified, doesn't mean it's extra-terrestrial.

Answer 2

1. Witnesses claiming to have seen something doesn't put their claims beyond a reasonable doubt.

2. It's not a question of trusting government scientists over UFO witnesses. The principle known as "Ockham's razor" says it best to go with the simplest, most natural explanation.

3. So far group UFO sightings are only mysterious things in the sky, not alien space ships. Ockham's razor again.

4. If alien spacecraft don't land and leave physical evidence then there is no proof. But the burden of proof is on those who claim UFOs are alien spacecraft. You can't prove something from ignorance.

5. The conclusions of a jury are sometimes irrelevent. After all, a jury aquitted OJ Simpson. But UFOs are not beyond a reasonable doubt.

6. Assuming that UFOs haven't landed on the White House lawn because they have a "prime directive" ala Star Trek begs the question whether alien visitors even exist.

Answer 3

I do believe they exist. If you see something in the sky and don't know what it is -- regardless what it ACTUALLY is -- then you've seen a UFO.

UFOs are NOT alien spacecraft, however. The large number of sightings of unusual objects in the western United States are easily explained by the fact they test secret military planes there. That's why they have all the secrecy. Try the most obvious explanation. Yeesh!

Answer 4

Cause if it quacks like a duck, it's a little yellow duck. Why the secregy in Area 51 if there is nothing to hide? Whenever you see a lack of fransparency, there's a smoking gun, and whenever there's a smoking gun, something fishy is happening.

Answer 5

At this point, I really do not care. I have so many other things going on that I could not care less about UFOs and government involvement.

Answer 6

I dont believe in UFOs because Ive never seen them firsthand.

Answer 7

As UFO is any object that is flying and is unidentifiable, then of course UFO's exist, if you see something flying and don't know what it is then it is a UFO.

Answer 8

Seriously, I think they are fallen angels masquerading as aliens.

A lot of the T.V. documentaries seems to think its the reverse.

Answer 9

Oh, I do believe...

I just don't believe that any of them are exrta-terrrstrial!.

One should base beliefs on facts in this case.

Answer 10

Did you ever think that THEY are smarter than us and have there own reasons?
