During a remarkable congressional hearing, former American intelligence official David Grusch revealed that the US government conducted a "multi-decade" programme aimed at collecting and reverse-engineering crashed unidentified flying objects (UFOs).
Grusch, who was in charge of investigating unexplained anomalous phenomena within a US Department of Defence agency until 2023, spoke before the House oversight committee in Washington, shedding light on the issue of alien life and technology, as reported by the Guardian.
I think you have assumed I’ve taken a stronger stance against this than I meant to.
The reason I’m less interested in that as evidence is simply because we don’t have a way to seperate true from untrue, and if we accept all as true there are obvious contradictions. I’m just focusing on stuff that could be disproven but hasn’t, rather than the stuff that can’t be disproven yet. Keyword, yet.
I’m of the opinion that it is likely many things people would describe as supernatural exist in some form as something science has not yet understood. IMO “the supernatural” doesn’t “exist” simply because its a word we use for the natural that we don’t understand.
But that doesn’t mean all of everything is true. Mental illness is definitely also a thing, and probably more common than the unexplained.
I try to look at it all with my own proprietary blend of kindness, cynicism, optimism, and skepticism.
I didn’t mean to go for your throat, you just brought up a topic I wanted to address. However, I will say that the problem is not that people refuse to believe that telepathy exists. Obviously we have no proof of that. The issue is that people deny that it exists, with no evidence. These people, many of whom would claim to believe in science, are completely ignoring the scientific method. We must accept that either possibility could be true until one is proven. Instead, they take a hard stance that everything is bullshit unless they personally see proof. “I’ll believe it when I see it” et al.
Some food for thought. We have already proven that it is possible to read minds, using a simple MRI machine and electro-magnetic fields. We now have neural networks that can describe what you are seeing just by observing the patterns in your brain. Who’s to say definitively that telepathy is impossible?
you should get your possible mental health condition checked mate
I’m quite sane, but thank you for your valuable contribution. I’m sure you feel good dismissing people you disagree with as mentally unwell.
You mean one of the most complex devices humanity has ever made? lmao
