Dr. Steven Greer --> Here we go ...
Here's my final bit on Greer (Yeah right. When do I EVER shut up?) But okay, hypothetically, it could be....
If it's true that he was abused by his parents and left home while a teen, then the rest of this falls into place. (Occam's Razor! Occam's Razor--SHUT UP, BASSETT!! ...but I digress....)
You've got young, sexy, pre-doctor Greer who has to retreat from the world around him into his head. Let's see, he was raised in North Carolina, Land of Tolerance, right? Wonder if "No good sonofabitch sissy boy faggot," or worse, was ever heaved at him before daddy would kick the crap out of him while mommy watched.
Greer was a pure-of-heart meditation master by age 18. All of his alien encounters took place in his head via meditation and when asked how that's not just his imagination, his answer is, "Whose imagination?" See, because all is one therefore these beings in his head are as real in the eyes of God as he is.
Does it make more sense (Occam's--! --QUIET!!!) that Greer met perfect alien parental figures while meditating, or does it make more sense that a hyper-intelligent abuse victim retreated into his head, into his fractured imagination, and at the same time learned to meditate?
One thing far too many meditators believe wrongly is that meditation is the key to everything. However, as Ken Wilber has amply shown, consciousness, like the physical, unfolds in a process of transcending and including--not just transcending--and that the higher states rest on the ground of the lower. So, meditation does not supplant the need for a shrink. The higher realms transcend and include psychology and if your psychology is completely screwed up, it's coming with ya.
One universal in meditation is projecting illusory images. So here's Greer, a conflicted kid who buries his pain, retreats into his head, into his imagination. One fine day he discovers meditation, but because he never dealt with the evils of his family, he now projects what he imagines like a schizophrenic when meditating. What does he project? - Galactic parents who love us unconditionally and just want us to reach out to them via Greer's meditation. (Plus flashlights. And you can bet your ass "Let's flash lights at the sky and hope God sees it as an S.O.S." was a game Greer played often as a child.)
That is why alien abductions are nothing more than an evil military project. Greer knows that all of the aliens are beautiful and loving and want to nurture us. He knows this because that's how they project out of his mind.
To Greer, evil only exists in humans. He knows this. It's how he was raised. And because he knows this, he's less like you and me and more like the aliens: PURE OF HEART.
That, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I contend, is how Steven Greer views the world. And underlying the whole messy thing is a contempt for the rest of us best illustrated in vampire lore.
