UFO/UAP

Alien Said: “We’ll speak again.”

Do aliens project fear, or do humans feel fear of aliens?

In 1966, driving home from work, Woodrow Derenberger encountered a UFO. He reported local law enforcement office. His story went ‘viral’ before there was a term for going viral. His life’s story doesn’t end well. Barb Bergfeld, on the other end of this spectrum, recorded her triangular UFO, even capturing the local sheriff witnessing the event, and it did not go viral. A statement from law enforcement: we’re not interested in lights, don’t report, and “find someplace else to film.” Could the reluctance to be involved with UFO stories be in part due to people know all too well how badly it goes for experiencers?

79 THE TERRIBLE GRINNING MEN

Contrary to popular belief, people who reports seeing UFOs don’t get any special favors. Those who reports seeing aliens, they get heavily penalized.

At the risk of sounding judgmental, what strikes me most interesting about the Woodrow Derenberger report is Woodrow is so ordinary. That’s not an insult. He is not Forest Gump, but he just strikes you as not the person who would report encountering an alien. It is his ordinariness that increases his credibility. In juxtaposition, I suspect my credibility would be rendered lowered due to my knowledge, interests, intelligence, and prone to high creativity. If you add my history of dysthymia with intermittent MDD, and PTSD, a skeptic would likely destroy my reliability.

Society doesn’t like honesty. It can’t tolerate deviations from the norm. And so it was not surprising to find Woodrow’s life did not go well after his report.

Having experiences with UFOs and Aliens doesn’t make life easier.

In truth, you really don’t want to talk to God. Most the people in the Bible that talked to God, their lives weren’t particularly pleasant after. You don’t even have to talk to God. You could just be his favorite, like Job. Poor Job…

Same with aliens, saying you commune with aliens can result in backlash at worst. At best, nothing happens.

Do you know the Skinwalker Ranch story? If you follow UFOs and paranormal, you probably do. Did you know there is a Texas equivalent to the Skinwalker Ranch?

Bleedthrough: A true story of aliens, demons, and pure evil in Texas, a book by Patricia Copley O’Connell, suggest Skinwalker Ranch stories pale in comparison.

Perhaps you have not heard about it because it’s a fairly recent publication. Perhaps you don’t hear about this kind of stuff because we don’t talk about this stuff! Perhaps I hear about stuff because I read a lot of stufff this nature. I suspect this case is referenced in Extraterrestrial Contact: What to do When You’ve Been Abducted, by Kathleen Marden, but maybe more people are having similar occurrences than we want to know.

Skinwalker Ranch may not be the exceptional spot, it’s just one spot the media has allowed us to talk about.

What if the density of aliens among us is the same as the human population, and we just don’t have clue? When Indrid Cold, the alien that introduce himself to Woodrow Derenberger, said ‘we’ll talk again soon,’ was it because Woodrow is a human of interest? If it true that Cold’s statement to Woodrow is they are interested in our welfare, did they note how badly the meeting affected Woodrow’s life, resulting in fewer direct contacts with others?

Or, more likely, allowing others to have conscious memories of interactions? Was Woodrow’s fear due to a lack of acclimation, or do the visitors themselves simply provoke fear? Is it a biological or psychological fear? Chase Klooetzke, MUFON’s prior DOI, believed a small gray alien projected fear into her, making her run, perhaps so it could get away. A creature that is telepathic could project any emotion, right? Maybe even control your body directly or through subconscious, subliminal commands. So if Woodrow’s alien, Cold, wanted a friendly chat, couldn’t it have made Woodrow more conducive to conversations? Woodrow didn’t seem to hold back.

“What are those lights over there? Is that where people live?” Cold asked. ‘Why do you want to know? What are you about?’ might be a nice response, especially if you’re afraid of a stranger. Woodrow just answered the questions put to him. That, too, could be about fear.

Why are we afraid of aliens? Are we afraid of the telepathy? If you google Indrid Cold there are some comparisons to the joker, as if the alien’s caricature was more clownish than human friendly. Is that the interpretation, or projection? Are aliens afraid of us? That’s a serious question. Would a natural telepath have a hard time with humans who are always projecting?

Could it be reading an alien face is difficult to read because they don’t usually project emotions through facial features, and so human experience incongruity of feelings received through mental projection and what the facial feature are providing? If we project fear, do they amplify that and give it back? If they have ‘mirror’ neurons, or naturally mirror psychologically, we get what we give?

Can humans and aliens exist without discord? Just the fact they’re telepathic may bother many people. Imagine living in a world with no secrets. Could you do it?

Did Cold listen to the radio/television interview? Woodrow was rather unhappy about the prospect of being contacted again. He said as much. But maybe Cold meant it for humans in general. Maybe we will all be seeing them a lot more of aliens in the future.

What will the world look like when all of us have the potential to walk and talk with aliens? What if we already are and don’t know it?
