Interesting, and enjoyable as a cultural exposé, but beyond that, how should we handle this? Do we fall happily off the ledge into the land of fairies, abandoning all sense of rationality ( if not our sanity ), or do we call it all mythological nonsense, or do we look for alternative explanations, like some kind of alien manifestation?

Do we have to decide today?

Do we have to decide today?

Well, personally, I chose to fall happily off the ledge into the land of fairies, but it hasn't happened yet. I'll keep you updated .

Well if Conan Doyle can believe then I'm sure you can too for a time.

I am open to "the paranormal" manifesting in many different forms. I do not think we need to explain one paranormal event by means of another paranormal event, e.g., that fairies are really aliens. I think people actually see fairies, elves, gnomes, and Elvis. What might be creating these manifestations is open for discussion.

Looking for a book on this subject? Here is one:



From a review in Amazon:
When I first began to look for books to fuel my fascination with fairies, this was the first book I explored. It was entertaining, informative and perfect for an introductory to the beings and personalities of fairy. With a clever lightness of description, Arrowsmith covers fairy beings from all over the world. She writes of the importance of elves and other little people throughout Europe. "Until a few centuries ago, elves still held a position in the folklore of Europe second only to the Devil and Christ."
In this guide, arranged like a traditional field guide to flowers or birds, Arrowsmith introduces us to seventy-nine inhabitants of fairy, each with appropriate notes for identification and habitat.

I watched this, flipper. I see nothing here to convince me that this man was photographing anything but (maybe) some bugs and at the end some serious constructions he'd worked up special for the grand finale. In fact, the whole video is a working up to those big things at the end, and he seems barely able to contain his own amusement at his cleverness. He's clueless regarding what fairies look like, and teaming up fairies with ufo's, well......nope. That's my take.
