    If they offer to make you an African princess, if you'll just send them a $5000 "transaction fee", do it, it's totally legit.

    Why not watch the De-Grasse Tyson video and see what he says about such things yourself, instead of pontificating as usual, about something that a group of children claimed as true. :shrug:
    My conclusions? Mass hallucinations? Probably some sort of trick? Obviously a UFO.....
    My reasons. As usual, the landing occurred in a relatively isolated zone...all children of a young impressionable age: Just so happened all teachers were at a meeting. They supposedly through some mine melding [Mr Spock process] told the children we were not looking after this planet. So why tell this message to a group of school children? Why not on the lawns of the White House...or the Kremlin...or outside Buckingham palace.
    Why before a group of impressionable gullible children? With no teacher available, and as usual no physical evidence left behind.
    Incredible claims require incredible evidence...not just the word of mouth from a group of children.

    Argument from personal incredulity: because you cannot understand why they made themselves known to those children, it therefore must not have happened.

    Why do you think it ever did happen?

    Just because they say so?

    Argument from even more total incredulity, to believe that Aliens would travel the distance that they would obviously needed to have travelled, and the time involved, and the obvious advanced Intelligence they would have, to "appear" to a group of children, with a warning "mind meld" message, that we are ruining our planet, instead of at the White house, Buckingham Palace, or the Kremlin with their message.

    Oh, I did forget, you also accept Bigfoot, ghosts and goblins on similar "hear say" evidence.
    Extraordinary claims, require extraordinary evidence.
    Gullible people that believe the "total incredulity" that Aliens would travel these distances, to appear to isolated individuals or groups, to deliver a planet saving message, then again disappear to probably appear to another isolated individual, to conduct some anal probing or similar, without leaving any credible evidence of their visitation, is to accept the tooth fairy, Santa Clause and the Easter Bunny also.

    Yep, our gullible impressionable children saw a UFO...100% certain.
    The rest is 100% unknown.

    It happened. A UFO sighting.....the rest is unknown, driven by gullibility, imagination and fear.

    Well considering your entire MO for every single stupid thing you believe is nothing but argument from total and utter credulity, I thought you might appreciate the contrast.

    There's no such thing as a fallacious argument based on personal credulity. Indeed, with any good argument, that is precisely the desired result--personal credulity.

    I was trying to be as nice as possible to you. :shrug:
    As I have said in the past to other rather gullible characters, I enjoyed the awe, mystery and storylines of those TV programs, "The X Files" and "Millenium" but really they have a lot to answer for.
    They should have had a "NG"classification code. [Not for the Gullible]

    If you don't find your continuing arguments [without any physical evidence] for UFOs of alien origin and Bigfoots and ghosts as incredulous, perhaps stupidity would be more apt.
    In the meantime science will proceed without those fairy tales, benefitting mankind as it always has.

    And yet all you ever manage to display is gullibility.

    Given there has been zero substance beyond the imagination of children for this thread... I think it's safe to chalk this up to "Magical Realist being Magical Realist" and move on.

    The evidence says otherwise...

    Eyewitness accounts ARE evidence...

    The Westall UFO:

    "At approximately 11.00 am on Wednesday, 6 April 1966, a class of students and a teacher from Westall High School (nowWestall Secondary College) were just completing a sport activity on the main oval when an object, described as being a grey saucer-shaped craft with a slight purple hue and being about twice the size of a family car, was alleged to have been seen. Witness descriptions were mixed: Andrew Greenwood, a science teacher, told The Dandenong Journal at the time that he saw a silvery-green disc. According to witnesses the object was descending and then crossed and overflew the high school's south-west corner, going in a south-easterly direction, before disappearing from sight as it descended behind a stand of trees and into a paddock at The Grange in front of the Westall State School (primary students). After a short period (approximately 20 minutes) the object - with witnesses now numbering over 200 - then climbed at speed and departed towards the north-west. As the object gained altitude some accounts describe it as having been pursued from the scene by five unidentified aircraft which circled the object."====https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westall_UFO

    I have merged this thread with the Bizarre Sky Phenomena as both are about the same thing (unidentified objects) and have the same level of evidence (ergo, none)
