More Oregon UFOs...
Well I've barely been on the web at all this week and I have a lot to catch up on and it would also seem that perhaps the UFO wave may still be happening. Indeed one the first things that caught my eye was a post over at the Oregon MUFON page about a boomerang shaped UFO seen over highway 26 by North Plains. Annoyingly North Plains is just right up the road from me and I didn't see anything that night.Now always keeping a clear mind on these subjects, I have to theorize that this boomerang shaped cr

Oregon UFO October Roundup
Well it seems that the jump in UFO activity here in Oregon subsided a bit during October. The search of the MUFON Sigthting Database reveals less the half of what was seen in September. Also I received zero reports personally this month. Yet while the activity seems to have died down, that doesn't mean there were not any interesting reports out there.The first one of the month, which I posted about, apparently involved multiple eyewitnesses at a night club in Portland, Oregon. The object itself can pro

A brief thought: Regarded as insects...
I can not recall how many times I've heard a scientist or skeptic on TV say something along the line of "A highly advanced alien race would probably regard humans as nothing, but insects. (sometimes cattle)" Likewise I can not tell you how much I disagree with that. Wait, I can!Human history is riddled with "civilized" humans encountering other humans that we often consider "savage" or uncultured. For the most part we also disrespected many of these cultures by forcing our beliefs on them or enslaving them. And while today there are some groups and individuals who would still prefer to do the above, we have more regard for cultures that aren't part of the "modern world". In fact

Is there an evolutionary advantage to telepathy?
While reading UFO Magazine today, one of the articles was talking about a book about this new agey guy who thinks that "star beings" are going to help us develop telepathy in order for us to move to a new spiritual level. In one sense, it's a cool idea, but then I tried to think about what the advantage would be to telepathy.We humans prefer to think of ourselves as individuals, albeit social individuals and for the most part it works. Sure we can be selfish, but we value our privacy from time to time, and for the creative types that can be crucial. If we suddenly found ourselves with telep

Common Sense: UFOs and God
The above title is probably a bit misleading, this isn't about UFOs and their connection to God...which who knows they might, but as I said, that's not what this post is about. It's really about two stupid things that no one seems to use common sense with. The first is that UFOs are "space aliens" and the second is that God can only exist with faith and would fail to exist if he was proven real...Let's study the word UFO, which really isn't a word, but an abbreviation of the words "unidentified flying objects" which has absolutely nothing to do with aliens, unless of course a UFO can be identified as being an alien spaceship. The fact that they are unidentified makes them UFOs,
