UFO Skeptics Need to Apologize

One of the reason there is going to be resistance to legitimist UFO discussions is because there has been so much ridicule for so long by journalists and ‘academia’ that there may have to be a public reckoning. At minimum, an apology for not listening to witnesses and considering the possibility that the experts don’t know jack.

It’s one thing to be skeptical, it’s another thing to viciously malign an opposing view.

Who let the UFOs out?

I have been interested in UFOs probably since I could read. I have kept journals, maybe since high school, and there are several ‘UFO’ entries, either discussing something I read, or one of my experiences. I learned really quick not to discuss this with family.

My interest stepped up a notch after the Phoenix Lights incident. No one I know believed the military flare explanation. I kept the USA today article. The next really good sighting was the 2006 O’Hare incident. I really want that pilot to come forward with his photo evidence. We know the pilot leaned out of the flight deck window and took a photo. Lots of folks saw that UFO. It was not a weather phenomenon. But if it was, it was a unique phenomenon that you would think someone in science would like to document. Who knows, you could have had a phenomena named after you. Nope. Not what happened. Nothing to see…
