Judy, I just can't believe you're "into this" as much as you seem to be. Are you just pulling my chain?
To me, all my reading about aliens considered EVERY SINGLE concept about them, their psychologies, their technologies and, yep, why or why not they might use cropcircles for "some reason." These are books by Carl Sagan, etc. Scientists, ya know? Want a reading list? I just can't get there from here -- I just can't see an alien intelligence "messing with Earthlings" like that -- this said even though I DO BELIEVE that all of Hollywood's sci-fi productions ARE in fact a way to "soften the blow" when the aliens do finally arrive. I just don't see cropcircles as a "professional, first contact, methodology." I mean, there's sooooooo many other ways to do whatever they're doing with cropcircles -- if cropcircles are messages. If they're yantras, then that's another story, but now we're speculating that aliens are also "Gods" of a sort. What next, another religion on the same order as the one started by those jungle folks who thought WWII airplanes flying overhead were Gods? Sorry, like when I unloaded on the guy who thought he saw a star going nova in a three second span of time, I just can't see a basis for even beginning to consider cropcircles as legitimately mysterious in some core measurement that would prompt me to, say, ask the world to stop putting so much money into the space program and do cropcircle research instead. Gotta prioritize, and geeze there's sooooo much to study first that could really really really benefit human kind. Even TM would be a better candidate to be studied than cropcircles. Now, as a sign of my good faith, as a sign that even your "energy" is not going to trigger me, I will read "as much as I can stomach" from any five Web sites you recommend -- then I'll chime in and see if I have to admit that "I got caught same as Judy." So, give me five links, or just tell me to go to the first five given in your postings. The problem is, and it's huge, is that I'm not smart enough nor scholarly enough to debunk or winningly support concepts that are so "iffy." I've been had by much "less important" promises from true believers -- money, time, alternate opportunities not explored, man o man, so much given by me VOLUNTARILY to cults, lost causes, scams, panics, fads, etc. Sigh. The best I'll be able to do on cropcircles is become a true believer -- I sure don't think I will be able to become a promoter with any degree of confidence, nor would I stand on a soapbox to decry the concept with any hope of being "the final word" on the subject. I did my stint. I promised the world it could fly if only it would believe in my magic words given to me by magic people. What, Judy, is inside you that gets you so hot on this? Might be a personality pattern underlying it, eh? And I DO believe Bush arranged for 911, but I'm not obsessing and reading every conspiracy blog, book and candle about it. I've had it beaten out of me -- Y2K, TM, JYOTISH, HIPPY VALUES, POETRY, MUSIC, SEX, FOOD, and on and on .... geeze, how many more times down the primrose path-o-great-promises must I go? I did identification, and now I'm seeking a twelve step program for that disease. It's all illusion, and every time I invest in it, I dive in deeply and find out there's nothing there to cling to -- no actual certainty. I would say that most folks are like me and have wasted their lives trying for one gold ring or another -- only to come up with brass tchotchkies. It always tastes like paper when I eat pictures of mouth-watering food. I hate that!
