I like this post very much for many reasons @andrewrait !
This is a subject that was talked and discussed . There are so many people against the ideea or even the concept of UFO.
On the other side there are the people belive this and become fanatics.
And not to forget about the people who hurt all of us by making scams .
From movies and books to sci fi movies over the years people start to think more about this things .
For me this more like a problem then a solution because people dont take it serious and make jokes about it.
This subject can be discussed from the scientific point of view and detailed as to show evidence and ideeas for new tech .
Let me give you an example: Vatican has a team for exorcism .
Really that is not a joke .... they have a team made by real people who come to analyse a case of a supposed possession by a demon.
Meanwhile .... there is no team to analyse in detail this UFO cases.
And here I wrote about real team with experts not some documentary or amateur movies who try to catch chupacabra or bigfoot.
I am sick and tired about these type of individuals and I just want them to disappear:
Sorry for my onesty I don't want to offend. In the past I read a lot of books about this subject and as I started to grow I saw the reality of those books.
They had no substance no evidence to suport or back their claims.
As a modern society we need to evolve and ..to be onest to forget those things that our parents told us about. (fairy tales)
Sorry @andrewrait for the long comment I read your post and I like it, what happened was just let's say my dissapointment in media, authors or scam artists.
Anyway, again very good post and I hope that you post again about this subject because I just followed you!
UFO means "unidentified flying object."
I've seen a lot of things flying around that I can't identify...
