UFOs are definitely REAL. That’s because nobody can deny that there have been flying objects that haven’t been identified. When I was in college, my sister and I saw one - we immediately looked at each other and said “did you see that?”. We still like to discuss what we each think we saw.

More to the point is whether those UFOs are of extra-terrestial intelligence in origin. To that, I have to say that sadly I don’t think any of them are. I really REALLY wish they were, because that would be really cool. In fact if any ONE of those “visitations” turned out to be real, it would be the coolest thing that ever happened on earth. I just think that the current science makes it seem highly unlikely. It is also telling that most of the observations are so different from each other. If we were being visited, I think there would be more consistency in the stories.

I also don’t think we will ever be able to participate in any sort of reasonable speculation on this topic, or make contact with other intelligences, until we get some sort of handle on the meaning of (and possible interrelationships between) time, space, gravity, and consciousness. Right now we don’t have a clue what any of those things are, so how can be possibly presume to have any idea what is what in the universe(s)? They are so basic, and we are so clueless. We’re like sea slugs, totally clueless of the ocean around them and beyond.
