This is the delemma. If even 10 % of the UFO sightings and alien contacts in the world are authentic (actually believed by the subject and not faked), then the Earth is undeniably the crossroads of the universe! And, what would cause us to be at this juncture? Surely not our geographical location in this galaxy. The only logical explanation is that the human race is really, really, REALLY important to someone or some group. Now, couple this with the fact that for all of these visits and attention paid to us, we have no physical evidence. A conclusion can be drawn from this, that these entities, who are so determined to convince us of the existance of advanced alien technologies, have in fact almost no power to affect us on a material level, that sightings may merely be visions inserted into peoples brains and not actual sightings at all! > There is an extremely large amount of evidence for a subtle > guiding "influence" which itself has only one common trait - > extremely focused "intellignece" taking human form and directing > the subject-species along a particular path Many New Agers have their spirit guides whom they believe to be spiritual benefactors. Might these be demons who are acting nice for now because it fits their purpose. These demons (fallen angels) do not take their marching orders from God. When the time is right they may manifest themselves more openly, masquerading as aliens, because we have been primed for decades to receive them as technically advanced aliens and not as demons. This plan may not be going well because of all the scary movies. The nasty aliens ginned up by Hollywood are so bad they could make an honest to God demon look like a descent fellow. If there is a hypothesis that fits the facts better than this one I haven't heard it yet. Jeff
