Finally,
we just might be
getting to the bottom
of all this talk about
alien existence.
With troubles here and
abroad the alien
chatter has become
front and center
again. After
teasing us for weeks,
the government released
a series of formerly
classified documents
and videos. In my
opinion, they leave a
lot to be
desired. I
watched videos of
some of these
UAP’s
(unidentified aerial
phenomena) but to me
they resembled low tech
1990’s style
video games.
Afterall, three
years ago when I first
starting writing about
this subject well
respected figures
within and without
government came forward
with astonishing claims
of such evidence.
Some, like
whistleblower David
Grusch, have staked
their careers and
reputations on
it. These folks
are seemingly smart,
articulate, and most
importantly sane.
They are not like your
crazy cousin Earl, who
drinks too much, works
too little, has a meth
problem, and never met
an alien he
didn’t like.
According to esteemed
sources, these are not
your
grandfather’s
little green men.
Now, evidently, they
come in a variety of
colors: gray ashen,
jaundice yellow, and my
favorite, a whiter
shade of pale.
Some of them even look
like the characters
from Star Trek.
According to those in
the know, their remains
are housed in various
military bases around
the
country. Legend
has it, that Richard
Nixon once took his pal
Jackie Gleason to one
such base in Florida.
And Gleason himself
built a UFO
‘inspired”
home.
What is baffling that these otherworldly characters could come
thousands of light years away from earth defying what we know
about physics, technology, and … crash? It strains credulity.
Aliens for years have preferred the barren deserts of New
Mexico, the backwoods of Arkansas, the hinterlands of Montana
or Wyoming. But these aren’t the kind of places to announce
yourself to the world. Of course, they could end all this
controversy by just showing up in Times Square, Piccadilly
Square, or Tiananmen Square. Hold a press conference, visibly
show their existence leaving no doubt as to their place in the
universe and a press release detailing their new reality series
called Meet The Aliens.
As well intentioned as some of these credible sources seem to be,
I’m still highly skeptical. The media coverage rarely offers any
follow-up or specifics regarding these claims. Normally the
source hasn’t seen any documents related to alien existence
themselves but “talked to someone else within the highly
compartmentalized military bureaucracy who has”. A recent
bizarre story almost sounds like the old walk in a bar joke. But
no, instead of a bar, four to six “prominent” religious leaders
were summoned to an Airbnb in east Tennessee to look over
“evidence” and to help prepare their flocks for what is coming.
I call these people the blithering idiots of the apocalypse. In the
end, the evidence at hand is too vague to attach much credence
to it. The increased sightings of UAP’s could be explained as
secret Pentagon aircraft programs (including drones) that
befuddle even the most veteran pilots.
But if aliens do exist, I tend to think that they would be like the
ones depicted in an old Twilight Zone episode called “To Serve
Man”. Seemingly benevolent, nine-foot-tall aliens arrive on earth
offering earthlings a better way to live if only they board the
spacecraft and travel to a planet of peace and paradise.
Unfortunately, “To Serve Man” was the name of a cookbook and
all, who boarded would be subject to being eaten by the aliens.
