If it's moot, then no one need bring it up. If you mean to say that it's a
given where UFOs automatically have the benefit of doubt, then you are
obviously wrong.

I'm not waiting for evidence. Here I am discussing it with absolutely no
evidence whatsoever. What I would like someone to show me IS evidence.
Real evidence. Not stories and anecdotes, and fantasy science fiction presented
as if that was real.

That's right, and if some people think I'm full of shit they say so.
UFOs aren't being signaled out. They are the subject of this thread.

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance—not soap-boxing—please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'—with its many half-truths,
misdirections
and outright frauds—is used politically by different groups with major and
minor
effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought. That being said,
CTRL
gives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and always suggests to readers;
be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no credence to Holocaust denial and
nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
