Alien
Behavior:
Concept or Precept?
by

"186,000 M/Second
- it's not just a good idea, it's the law," the bumper sticker read.
Something about that statement irritated me. Here we were in the
midst of a UFO conference and someone was selling an old reality!
The mixture
of our notions of physical reality and our concept of law are keeping
us in the dark ages of human thought. Modern science has brought
us many new ideas about the nature of the universe, but those ideas
are constantly being challenged and changed as our powers of observation
sharpen and equipment improves. I thank our scientists for their
contributions; I love air conditioning, airplanes, and the
television waves that travel our air. What bothers me, is that we
have not stopped to consider, "The Law."
What laws do
the invaders (and I use that term intentionally) of our world abide
by? I posit that we have no idea of the rules of the navigable universe
by which these otherworldly entities operate. We continue to develop
ideas of their intentions based on our own social rules and written
laws. I asked a prominent author and researcher of the UFO phenomenon
the other day why he thought the aliens could be trusted - why we
should believe what they tell us. His reply was sincere, I think.
He said they have demonstrated their truthfulness by predicting
some future events, and, lo and behold, what they said came true.
He said they have told us our planet is in ecological crisis and
we know that is true. And, although they seem to have been here
for thousands of years, they have not invaded us. What wonderful
creatures they must be!
In the few
years that I have been studying my own personal invasion by these
creatures, I have come to understand that the invaders do not tell
the truth unless it serves THEIR purpose. They play on our fears,
using pollution, war, nuclear holocaust and greed as backdrops for
their warnings. But every day since I was a small child, I have
been aware that those things are part of our world. We all know
these things. It does not take a zillion-plus-IQ creature from the
planet Orlon to make me aware that we have problems in our world
that we must face. We have very human problems to deal with - problems
that we can deal with.
The problems
we cannot yet overcome is that of outside interference in our affairs.
Some people may call it "benevolent intervention" and
point to positive results. I respect the scientists and laymen of
all disciplines who have been studying the alien phenomenon and
artifacts for the past 50 or 60 years. It appears that they have
made some progress, as witnessed by the rapid developments in the
aerospace industry, medicine, communications, etc., a great deal
of which seems to have come from such research. What is missing
is a thorough and public study of the mission and rules of engagement
in the war for our world.
I believe that
our very thoughts and consequently, our behavior as a race of sentient
beings are being UNDERMINED through the power of insinuation and
the implantation of controlling devices in our bodies by non-human
(most of the time) entities. This is truly the most effective way
to invade and conquer. I do not trust such creatures no matter what
I have been told about their altruistic motives.
We, as a race,
have never been free to discover our own true identity. Every social
advance we attempt is thwarted by some maniac who springs up with
almost divine grace to lead us into madness. Saint Paul, for instance,
seems to have taken the real message of Jesus and his earliest followers
and distorted it into something that we kill, lie and cheat for.
And, in spite of all that, we still aspire for redemption of our
souls. The followers of that doctrine - Christians, they call themselves
- are not the only ones who behave in such a manner. Every major
religion has managed to find an excuse in its teachings to destroy
non-believing fellow human beings. A part of me shudders every time
I hear of yet another killing based on 2000-year-old hatreds.
What law allows
us to continue with such atrocities? What influence keeps such hatred
and fears alive? Why are we abductees so afraid to ask for real
help from our own society?
We have been
INVADED - but I do not yet believe that the battle is over. Invasion
with sticks, knives or guns is a human reality, not necessarily
a universal one. There are very sophisticated mechanisms being used
in the invasion of our world. Why should our invaders use pointed
sticks against us when they can get us to sharpen sticks and use
them against each other? We provide them with everything they want
from us, and they take none of the blame for our misery. They just
zip around in their wonderful flying machines, dazzling us with
their magical abilities and filling us with awe at their insight.
Can there be
a more successful military campaign than one in which no shot is
(apparently) fired and in which the conquered populace gladly and
openly welcomes their enslavers? We are being programmed mentally
and socially to accept our invaders as saviors, not a conquering
force. I truly believe we are being deceived by smoke, mirrors and
sleight-of-three-fingered-hand movements. Are we going to sell our
birthright to some sneaky beings who appear on our shores in marvelous
ships and offer us a few glitzy baubles?
The researcher
asked if I personally knew of harm that has come to anyone at the
hands of, or because of, the aliens. Yes, harm has come. My early
youth was damaged severely by the unconscious knowledge that I was
being used by some non-human agency. It took me 40 years to recognize
that the fears which guided me daily were not of my own making and
that the rebellion I constantly felt was engendered by my contempt
for the powerful invisible agents that forced me to do things that
I knew were wrong, even as I was doing them.
For example,
I did not want to marry the person who became my first wife, yet
I had no control over the decision. Before we were married, we were
jointly abducted and subjected to severe programming. The results
brought no happiness to either of us. We both starved for love and
companionship, even though we tried with all our might to find them.
My son (now 25) was also one of their subjects, and is miserable
and lost. He is an artistic person with so many unknowable fears
that he is paralyzed. I know of abductees MURDERED by mutilations
(reports of which are suppressed immediately and completely), by
cancers that no physician has ever seen before, and by madness that
has led to suicide. In my opinion, these acts were not caused by
"brothers" of any sort.
I do not believe
that all is lost, however. I have felt a guiding hand that helped
me to discover happiness and inner peace amid all this chaos and
misery. What I have come to understand is that that hand is only
there when I take responsibility for my own happiness and do something
about whatever is bothering me.
Reality left
in the hands of the invaders is neither what we need nor what we
want. It is time that we think hard about ourselves and what we
have on this gem of the universe, our home - our planet. There are
laws governing the actions of our invaders, rules guiding their
actions and patterns of behavior we can discover if we will make
a concerted effort to discern them. We humans have something valuable
that is desirable to, and usable by the alien forces acting on us.
I feel it is time we take back that which is ours, that we use all
our resources to discover the laws that govern reality and become
the beings that we intrinsically know we are.
