UFO skeptics are not evil, just lazy….most of them

My pals Zoam Chomsky and Lance Moody have taken to chastising UFO believers by throwaway lines of condescension, a practice I’d usually laud for its brevity and pertinence.
And I know they are tired of trying to correct the alleged mindlessness of UFO buffs.

But if one wants to correct the corrupt thinking of UFO fanatics, one should take the roads of Robert Sheaffer or the exuberant French skeptic Gilles Fernandez, both exerting counter-argument and materials to rebuff what they see as the silliness of UFO thinking.
Yes, ufology or UFO belief is fraught with lots of nonsense but the mysterious phenomenon is, in essence, non-sensible, in behavior, intent, and physicality, among other odd eccentricities.

I just think that if one wants to berate UFO belief, they’d do so with something others than a whisper that the believer is nuts or lunkheaded.

The pasty, now dead skeptic, Philip Glass (may he Rest in Peace), who contended with UFO believers and notables like Stanton Friedman, was just nasty, whereas Zoam and Lance are lovable.
But their lovableness is too pithy for the arguments of a UFO reality or non-reality.

If one wants to correct the thinking of UFO people, they need to do so with zeal and élan, not a smooch on the cheek and a wave of their middle finger.

The UFO topic deserves better, even if it is full of mischief and foolishness.

UFO occupants are said to be sexless midgets

That’s where UFO buffs go astray……

We have a phenomenon, Unidentified Flying Objects (or the current sobriquet Unidentified Aerial Phenomena), and then for some we have craft that contains beings or entities often identified as “greys” – little fragile beings that some think have no sexual inclinations as they appear to be missing genitalia of any kind, or so witnesses report.
Should we UFO enthusiasts be investigating the things spotted by Naval pilots or investigating the alleged humanoids said to inhabit the things seen by Naval pilots (and others)?
The flying “things’ seem to have heft, or a reality of some kind, whereas the “beings” reported by some appear to be figments of the neurological/psychological mind gone haywire in some way.

Which study or investigation will bear fruit when push comes to shove in the pursuit of the enigma that haunts some of our days?

This is the problem – the dichotomy of UFO perception – that keeps real researchers on the edge of their investigating chairs.

UFO “Maleness”

Copyright 2020, InterAmerica, Inc.

While reading the Kugel book I’m exploring right now, I note that the gods of Israel and Mesopotamia are all male, men in configuration.

Whereas the Greek gods have female divinities, as do the Egyptian pantheon, and some lesser female divinities in the Norse retinue of gods, the Judaic God and those before the monotheistic idea devel- oped were heavily described as man-like, as were the demonic counterpart and the raft of angels named in the Hebrew Bible.
This male overlay is also the predominant nature of the humanoids reported in UFO encounters: the entities are usually male in nature.

Except for the Contactee accounts, where some women show up in those tales – Bethurum cited Aura Rhanes from Clarion and Billy Meier’s Asket and Semjase were prominent in his alleged encoun- ters; George Adamski’s contacts were male (Orthon) owing to Adamski’s homosexual predilection – most UFO reports or stories have the witnesses engaged with men or man-like beings.
Why is this? Why were the gods of old, mostly described as man-like, especially in the Judaic religious culture?

Eventually the Christian theology stepped up by making Mary, the mother of Jesus/Christ, a kind of divinity, and a very special one also.

But in UFO lore, male-oriented humanoids prevail; even Nick Redfern’s Men in Black are exactly that, “Men” in Black, although he has acknowledged some Women in Black in his oeuvre.
Is maleness a predominant fixture in the unconscious or dream-states of UFO witnesses and UFO story-tellers?

John Keel’s tormentors – his “Ultraterrestrials” – were male in nature and, of course, his coined term “Men in Black” preceded Nick’s obsession with the term, showing a desire to provide a patina of maleness to the paranormal “tricksters.”

There were female gods and goddesses in primitive cultures. Where and when did the nature of “divinity” become manly? And why?
This may be a clue to the UFO phenomenon. It surely is a clue to the nature of God, as described in my pamphlet that treats the homosexual preferences of YAHWEH as an obsession of that deity.

Do beings from time, or other dimensions, or interplanetary venues lack feminine counterparts? How do they procreate? Or are they AI things without a gender orientation?

It’s all very queer.
