The thing with Streiber is that he had been shopping an alien themed manuscript for a year or two before the Communion stuff. Apparently the hooded aliens had read it and decided to pay him a visit. Listen, I have no doubt that there are experiencers. I do not believe that all of these things can be explained by sleep paralysis, lying, or some mental disease. BUT, a good majority of them can. I just do not believe that Streiber is one of them. I think he is a fiction writer that took to extreme measures to sell a story. He was skilled enough to make it sound good, talented enough to act like it happened, and driven enough to market it. Then he began to expound and sequelize the story. It's a proven formula.
i think there are quite a lot of people in this field who, having once or twice in the past had an experience (sighting, abduction) continue by then making stuff up, usually to make money. for instance, i think billy meier probably did photograph a few UFO's in india but decided to capitalise on it by then faking more sightings and this whole 'pleadian' information transcribing. he probably realised a long time ago that some people are very interested in this subject and are more than willing to believe whatever they see, read or hear regardless of the credibility of the information. i am not religious (don't get me started on that one!) but i know that many people who are religious actually want to swallow the whole story for some internal reason of their own, and just accept what they are told by their minister/priest/whatever. they do not want to think too critically about it, in case it starts to no longer 'add up', i.e they do not want their illusion burst so they do not try to rationally think for themselves. they want just to be told what's what so they do not have to worry about it. as in religion, the UFO field has many people who again, are just happy to accept any and ALL UFO-related information, regardless of whether it is good evidence, or utter B.S.
i think it is beyond disgusting that steven greer is seriously charging people several thousand dollars to go on these 'contact' trips. he virtually guarrantees a sighting!! if that was true, it would be easy to prove to the world that UFO's exit and the news media would be along if they were guarranteed a close encounter. i realise steven greer has a family to support but for goodness' sake, he should go back to practising medicine because what he is doing now is nothing more than taking advantage of people who need to believe.
for anyone that still believes the meier phots or videos in switzerland are real, there is an excellent video on youtube that shows a guy building a 'beamship' and then suspending it on a wire that does not show on the footage and looks pretty much identical to the meier beamship photos. but here is the killer point: the guy in the video does this all WITH ONE HAND - to prove that a one-armed man can easily fake such phots. and isn't it funny how the footage showing a ship going round a tree happens to take place around a tree that is no longer there!! and one more thing about meier, if these supposed pleadians actively allowed meier to take phots of their craft, presumably so he can show the world to back up the writings he releases, then why not let him take unambiguous photos, such as having a full grown man standing next to a ship, or even just a ship on the ground with a measurable shadow and something in the pic to give an unambigous scale for the ship?
if the contacts were real, and he did go on the ships, and they did allow him to photograph their ships, then it would have been simple to make it irrefutible!! as david biedny often said, billy meier is nothing more than a cult. if he reported to his followers that semjase had told them all to drink poison a-la jim jones and kool-aid, you can bet that they would do what he said. his followers are just the types who, if they had not gotten into UFO's, would have ended up in some other cult or crazy religion anyway. they are just that personality type and meier expertly exploits them.
it will be extremely satisfying if whatever truth about UFO's does come out in my lifetime and it shows for definite who has been reporting real events all these years and who has been making it up and milking it. i'd love to see steven greer explain himself it some real ET's make contact with the whole world and we find out which reported parts of the field were true all along and which ones were utter shite. here's hoping.....
