Randall's latest activity

I live in Calgary Alberta and for the record, voted Conservative, so my opinion doesn't in any way represent that of the political opposition in the province. The separatist rhetoric we hear in the west typically plays on how much of our...

In 2019, 73% of Americans said they believed in the existence of UFOs, while 33% said they believed in the existence of extraterrestrial beings. This indicates that a significant portion of the American population is open to the idea of alien...

Well — certainly no disrespect to COB, but Chris' observations are more about the bad behavior of one species of wildlife ( us ) — than the "planet" itself. The Drake Equation suggests that the galaxy should be teaming with other civilizations...

Unless you're retired! Then you've got lots of time to talk turkey with the aliens and see just how gender fluid they are and why they want to trade pancakes for a jug of water.

I always thought Christopher O'Brien was on the money when he asked why would aliens want anything to do with our war.mongering, anti-environmental, sexist, racist backwater planet. I may be adding an issue or two to his general statement, but...

Yes, I did indeed take a political interpretation of your argument, but I didn't know you were lumping illegal aliens in with extraterrestrial aliens. It almost sounds like Bill Paxton's line from the movie "Aliens." Of course there will be...

The UFO meme has been used across time as a means for the many three letter agencies to communicate different bits of subterfuge and to gobble up info for their own purposes. It's all spycraft spook stuff. This latest barrage of extremely...

I'm not so sure about that. We've been inundated with the alien theme to the point where many people are sick and tired of hearing about it. Not only are they familiar with it — they're demanding to see the real deal. The rest don't care anyway...

That's the issue that familiarization is intended to rectify. It's precisely because of what you note that familiarization is a slow and very subtle process. It'll take decades more IMO. Frankly I think that's happened already. As The Alien...

I assume that by "mass deportation" you mean the deportation of people who are in the United States illegally. Are you stating that if you are in favor of deporting illegals AND you refused to learn a second language you would not be able to deal...

I like your definition of following The Subject as it really matches mine especially the Vallee points. I think Trinity just sit too well into his paradigm of interpretation but what a big mistake that was. However, ar times I have gone while...

Thanks, tyger for giving me some good laughs re: American military UFO disclosure/whistleblowers. I think you've got that nailed down. The only progress made in the field I think has been a more open intellectual discussion happening mostly in...

I think what I meant is that 10 years ago I was under the genuine illusion that real discussion was taking place and shared information would be seriously read and would inform responses. Never happened, I don't think. TLDR being a valid reason...

@pixelsmith Looks like you are no longer active here, but just to say: after closing in 10 years I agree with you 100%. And in fact, I owe you an apology. How blind I was. I was utterly convinced of my stance. I was wrong. I hope one day you see...

To me, the value of The Paracast has nothing to do with what it would sell for. IMO it's a priceless piece of cultural history that should be preserved and made freely available to everyone. That said, a person can't be blamed for wanting to get...

Science has become heavily politicized and used in concert with a compromised justice system to suppress civil liberties, particularly free speech — and for some things, when that doesn't work, they payoff "influencers" to help them keep a lid on...

Wow good to see the forum back and working.

The shows could probably be archived on Internet Archive: Digital Library of Free & Borrowable Texts, Movies, Music & Wayback Machine and maybe a couple other places. It all depends on what Gene wants to do.

Sure — I imagine some of that is the true in some cases, but I don't think it's safe to assume that it's all true in all cases. Even with something as familiar as our own species, every time I learn more, it just it makes me realize how little I...

I think they already have--in some cases for a long time--all the basic data, including the psychology of those chosen to be witnesses. As the aforementioned work argues, witnesses tend to be credible people. The idea is to help increase...

Life? Hmm, not sure — I'm having trouble finding my pulse. Does anyone else sometimes wonder if they're living in an alternate dimension?

Maybe Maybe we should all try therapy :p

Maybe the "shows" have less to do with "conditioning" humans, and more to do with learning how we react to their presence, like testing our defenses by buzzing military bases. Maybe they have no "plan" at all and they're just following some...

Oh of course not. ET/UFO appearances have two other important objectives. The phenomenon is slowly familiarizing us with the reality and presence of alien visitors. But it doesn't want us to be certain of this yet. To prevent it, they...

Ya — it's fairly safe to assume that "objectives" are part of any intentional action by any half-ways intelligent species, and that in each and every case, some degree of study is required attain them. So maybe moving away from the more general...

Ya, remember when they started calling Noory — "Snorey" :p. That wasn't really fair — because apparently George was a really good guy. Yet the show was never the same without Bell doing his thing. It lost its flavor, and Gene has his own...

I really do not know how the Paracast can be the Paracast without Gene. It is like when Art Bell left coast to coast and George Noory took over. Totally different show. When you are well enough I will phone you and Barbara but I really will miss...

Really sorry to hear this. I hope that Gene recovers and is able to enjoy a well deserved retirement. Hope to hear more of the paracast, perhaps someone else will grab the paranormal reins…

Marjorie Taylor Green Calls Trump A Traitor Epstein's Brother Says They're SCRUBBING Files Of GOP Names

It seems reasonable enough to believe that familiarization is one real purpose — just not the only one, and not necessarily the one behind every incident. Besides — as soon as we ( in general ) start assuming that we have the answer, the...
