They Fail

Roswell is revisited, yet again. Et tu Brute'?



I think what I find most personally offensive about the Roswell 'tree' being shaken further is the fallaciously stretched and unjust satisfactions of the ardent skeptibunky/pelicanist/post-pelicanist types. Their smiling satisfaction, such as it is forecast and already demonstrates itself to be, is wholly undeserved.



It's revolting that these same Klasskurtzian ideologues might draw a deeper more self-satisfied breath for any reason, but as a result of alleged "E?H" disqualifications for Roswell, or that Roswell might (at last!) be shown to have a prosaic (even if horrific) explanation... is simply intolerable.



To spin you up, reader, a respected researcher Nick Redfern will suggest same in his upcoming book. Moreover, Redfern can be heard on Jeff's program just a few nights ago...



Back at the ranch, I resent, further, that the aforementioned persons would even ~falsely~ perceive a little more hydrogen in their otherwise disintegrating balloon, a balloon of abject ufological denialism of the first water. Plainly, I take exception, finally, that they feel even ~remotely~ validated in the continuing prosecution of their senseless negativity regarding what is otherwise the ufologically ~obvious~. And it is obvious, reader.



Verily, they must facilitate to avoid the freaking point ...once again! To what end, one is compelled to wonder.



And, they only prop up their cloyingly dismissive ufological insouciance while they blithely continue their reversing back-step to sooth their cotton candy retro-paradigms... paradigms where they are the masters of all that we survey; that they are the dominators of same; that they are a jewel in some deity's inviolate crown... No, no, and no.



These are attitudes easily washed away in the first tidal wave, buried in the wave's causing earthquake, or obliterated with the first surprise asteroid strike. They fail.



Why does a Roswell redux upset me... and maybe you? Because it's a waste of everybody's time, I believe. It will be used to qualify a retreat from the inevitable. It uses conveniently applied logic to eradicate logic, intimates fallacy for more plausible reality... uses a metaphorical ufological democracy to hinder that self-same democracy. Justice is not served.



Listening closely, one can begin to hear the faux-victory chanters wheeze their tiny little sighs of sophistic satisfaction as they return, renewed, to the role of "foul beast" lurching off to CSICOPia to be reborn. On popular UFO lists noted 'skeptic' John Harney was one of the first emboldened to that pompous lurching. John Rimmer follows the very next day in his usual, knowingly lugubrious, manner. Others quickly to natter in?



Can you hear them smirk as they distorted; do you sense them sneer as they cherry-pick; Can you perceive in your mind's eye their snickers as they fraudulently lecture their unbrave retro-isms? Oh yes, these intellectual cowards smell a new validation for their tedious progression hating paradigms. They rejoice! Mr. Harney and Mr. Rimmer are only a beginning. They will fail.



This is said with all admiration for and appropriate respect to Mr. Redfern, who has gone some distance, ufologically, without disgrace on that paranormal path, a path fraught with all manner of opportunity for said disgrace. His arrows have flown with a minimal divergence from true, it would seem, and those arrows stick in the target with an efficacious tenacity which seems wholly justified. Whatever he has to say on the subject is worth having a look at... however he shakes it down. That's more than fair, and I believe Mr. Redfern aspires to same.



The truth about Roswell is, of course, paramount; however... only if it is the truth and not the current denialist's ufological sex-toy for the "S&P Cubed" individuals alluded to above. The truth has no agenda. That's the province of a lie, even if just one of omission.



The "Cubers" first instinct, remember, is to use the resultant flap to discredit this ufological microcosm of Roswell... but as a fallacious mechanism to destroy even unrelated ufological macro-cosms elsewhere! That's the quick and dirty on their devise. Their agenda is the, fraudulent, invalidation of UFOs.



They're not remotely interested in the truth! Their only interest is to keep the status-quo rewarding them... as turgidly ~vital~ as they can... for as long as they can... and accomplish same in any manner that they have to. It's what they do, have done and will continue to do.



Inevitably, they fail. Over an over again, they fail. UFOs refuse to go away.



As has been pointed out often by named researchers (including Friedman, and he wrote the 'book' remmeber), Roswell... despite all the high strangeness surrounding it (...and perhaps even ~because~ of same!)... ...is just not that important in the grand ufological design, good reader! It follows, then, that one can safely refrain from discounting the whole of that grand ufological design as a result of any one aspect of that design... especially Roswell, ~most~ especially Roswell given what may be the ultimate ~truth~ about Roswell... as repugnantly repellant and off topic as that subject's likely to be... ...it won't matter... sincerely!



...Real truths have a way of leading to other real truths. I'm ecstatic finding them myself however they might make themselves available to me, because of exactly that. I'll take them as I find them and find them acceptable, or not... however uncomfortable they are. Reality is preferable in the long-run even as the phony-baloney one provided is missed for a time...



That was the theme of those Matrix movies wasn't it? Those films struck an enduring chord for some freaking reason...



Returning to track, has it ever occurred to the reader that Roswell has been cultivated for ~years~ as a device to keep the "credulity line" regarding UFOs as indistinct as possible? See, if 'indisputable' evidence is uncovered that Roswell was nothing more than monkeys flying footballs, or disabled Japanese children in dangerous high altitude balloon tests... (good ...God!)... it shall not diminish a pool of data and evidence regarding UFOs that remains six levels deep, is thousands of years long, and has collected such an evidential weight and girth of reality changing propensity that its debated actuality becomes wholly and obscenely ludicrous... ...an, I suspect, a psychotic exercise of less than sane illegitimate power-holders in the confines of a lunatic asylum they have taken over, furiously pointing out and away from themselves the examples of the madness that they themselves are most afflicted by, frankly. I digress.



A prosaic Roswell does not make UFOs go away, by any measurable means, reader-sitting-on-the-fense-wrongly-believing-that-there- remains-a-plausible-deniabily-with-regard-to-...True UFOs... there is none. UFOs are, indeed, real. Of this there is no rational doubt. There are hosts of quality citation for that statement, reader.



Moreover, this is forgetting that a well respected and honorable Mr. Redfern may yet be found in arrears! Yea and verily, if Stanton Friedman can be proclaimed to have Roswell wrong (and that jury might very likely hang after it was out for years) then no less can be meted out to Mr. Redfern as the days and months spin on out. Nes't ce pas? Paramount in all our minds is the truth, isn't it?



Well, no, frankly. Noted ufologist Jerry Clark recently points out in cyberspace that the behaviors and methods of a contingent of the ufological community diverges ...considerably... from that!



Is anyone with a ~degree~ of open-mindedness remotely surprised?



Indeed, the first salvo of response from this "S-P Cubed" contingent are only the predicted snickers, smirks, and sneers of obligatory partisanship. "Wait and See" is largely abandoned in a rush to agree with each other and score the first points in the game of pressure seal refurbishment that they would play. They fail.



Their seals continue to pop around them like condoms apparently sent to third world countries. They know this to be true even as they don't accept it or remotely acknowledge it.



Their cabin pressures dwindle regardless. They begin to gasp for breath. Their status quo betrays them at last. Their retreating paradigms are a momentary aberration of their own meager hubris, and the gods they manufacture to do their bidding (and which only serve them in the short run)... fail. Even as these would deign to drag the rest of us into self-centered complacency, intellectual cowardice, moral injustice, and blighted sensibility, they fail.



Contrarily, we'd do well to agitate for truth, reader, despite its inconvenience; however uncomfortable it might be; embrace it in relieved acceptance. UFOs remain real, realer that we'd want them to be, perhaps, but preferable to any antithesis so far provided because the antithesis themselves are so occluded, so contrived, and so intellectually lacking. They fail.



Soon they will make 'the' straw-breaking failure, and the slide to 'truth' will become inexorable. This latest Roswell redux, as off topic as it appears to be, could be just the thing to get that slide started. Truth is grease. Any truth. I remain optimistic.



The summer remains the wild ufological ride I predicted it to be, no credit to me. I just have eyes to see, ears with which to hear, and an internet to whisper it in ~your~ ear, if you let me.

Whew, that was quite a tirade. You must have needed a nap after that! :yh_laugh So your saying that the 'government' or whomever is keeping the Roswell story alive if only to continually bash it?
