After watching several programs, sci fi, documentaries and movies, I believe we are being conditioned to accept aliens. And I don't think they want to move in next door to us if you get my meaning. ------------------ | ||

I think there has to be something out there. I don't believe Area 51 has aliens at it, but the universe is too large for this to be the only planet with life. | ||

Chesty, I totally agree, the've been "conditioning" us for years, especially to accept the "greys"....... I think it all started with X files. But I dont think the Government is going to go public, at least not anytime soon (this decade). Crazythug, I dont know if area 51 has aliens in it NOW, but I am 100% sure it did at some point in time. ------------------ | ||

I don't believe any of that Roswell stuff, I think there is intelligent life out there, as Thug says it is a big universe, but I don't believe that they are here. I think intelligent life in the universe is rare but it's a big universe, unless we or some advanced civilisation get around the limits of lightspeed, we may never know, at least in our lifetime, whats out there. | ||

You guys need to do some reading on the Bilderburg's, Skull & Bones, Committe of 300 and the New World Order.. I posted a link to a site here the other day that has all the info on it.. It will blow your minds !! Its nice to see that others out there believe more than whats written in the "news papers".. You wouldnt believe all the crazy shit that went on / is going on out at the Denver International airport.. Here is the link one more time.http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Shadowlands/6583/secret ... After you read it, I would like to hear what you guys think about it.. In my opinion, I would say that I believe in a life form outside our own.. I dont know if you guys are familiar with the bible at all, but in the Old Testament, there is referance to a people called the "Neflam".. ( I think the spelling is right ).. Some biblical scholars believe this race to have been extraterestial.. There is far to much info to write about it all here.. If you want to know more about it, leave your e-mail addy. , and I will write you all about it.. I suppose you all already know about the book of Revalations phrophecy of taking the number of the Beast ?? "Section 656 of the new law states that "after October 01, 2000, Federal agencies may only accept as proof of identity driver's licenses that conform to standards developed by the Secretary of the Treasury", (Digitized Fingerprints, Holograms, Bar Codes, etc). It will have a complete and total database containing every human in the US. This database will network between State, local and Federal governments. and the Feds. It will include all information on an individual, social security, credit cards, date of birth, eye and hair color, distinguishing characteristics, attitude, addresses, licenses, organizations, titled property, taxes, income etc. You name it, they will have it.

IF aliens are watching us then they already know all about us, they have superior technology and the power to travel across galaxies. So if they are really there WTF can we do about it. Nothing. Why people spend all of their lives in anoracs wearing thick glasses and never having a wash worrying about all of this shit is beyond me. OK some of it is interesting but you could study this all your life and you might be right. They may all come down and destroy us all. Would you be able to help with all your theories? ...no. Hopefully they'd wipe out all of the geeks first for having too much knowledge on them. Us bodybuilders will be left to last as we will be seen as stupid from the way we are stereotyped on TV and good meat to the flesh eating aliens. Then we can kick their arses, steal their information on the futuristic anabolics and take over the world ourselves. | ||

Steelplate, I have to get ready for school now, but I am a fellow conspiracy theory buff, because there surely is A LOT of shit that goes on without our knowing. I suggest you read "Mind Control, World Control" by Jim Keith, which alleges some NWO connections w/ Tavistock, Skull and Bones, Illuminati, etc... On a side note, Jim Keith died this year in a rather suspicious manner... | ||

I wonder there was a odd loooking guy in the gym while I was there. I bet he was an alien!!!!!!!!! HOLY CHRIST THEY ARE ALLL AROUND ME!!!!!! I know for a fact aliens dont exist. Why you ask? Every image i have seen they are small as hell. If they were that smart they would get on some green man cycle!!!and grow... | ||

I got mind control over Dee-bo. When he around he be like "shut the fuck up". i be quiet, but when he leave, I be talkin again. | ||
Elite Bodybuilder Posts: 673 |
On a side note, Jim Keith died this year in a rather suspicious manner... Hmm, weird - on another side note - he actually died September 7th, 1999, and instead of "suspicious" - I think you mean he died from a cardiac thrombosis, those usually aren't so suspicious. ------------------ | ||
Elite Bodybuilder Posts: 673 |
I always find it so strange when these things are backed up by actual "fact" that they get a whole lot less suspicious and there are less things that point towards conspiracy. you can find conspiracy everywhere if you are looking, but if you are going to do that - why not go whole hog and get scientific... hell - try reading some "scientific journals" - I know they use big words and you have to go to the library - but you might learn something cool. this post is yet another that I can fully rectify in my mind by saying that you should read "A Demon Haunted World" by Carl Sagan. ------------------ [This message has been edited by HappyScrappy (edited February 20, 2001).] | ||

Elite Bodybuilder Posts: 874 |
Chesty, please bear with me and I will give you my theory. Yes you are right, the entire world is being conditioned to accept extraterrestrials as fact. Why you might ask? Well, since the beginning of Christianity all TRUE Christians have believed that Jesus will come back one day to take his people with him. This will happen in a miraculous way, one minute some guy will be driving, the next minute guy disappears and the car smashes against a pole. Since it's been estimated that about 10% of the population are true believers, this means aprox. 10% of the population will dissapear. What will everyone believe then? UFO's haven taken them for who knows what, this gives the Government a chance to bring a New World Order, as well as the mark, 666 (most likely a chip in your right arm or forehead) I'm not being preachy here, and I'm not trying to convince you otherwise. I'm just telling you what I believe, and why to me it makes sense... ------------------ | ||

Ok, smartass, what's your theory then?? You know, I hate it when almost all possible evidence points to the Bible, and then everyone's going EVERYTHING IS TRUE EXCEPT THAT BOOK, and then scurry on to find another explanation, one to fit THEIR beliefs (or lack thereof) Man, there are no aliens!! If aliens could come here, either they would have made first contact, or would have pulverized us, like in Independence Day. I don't see the point of them abducting people and doing rectal probes on them. What's the point of this? You know, when people talk to you about God and things related, it's because they care, but yeah you guys keep shunning it and you'll see what happens... | ||

I love these alien conspiracy stories. Especially one that claims that Gerald Ford had a meeting with some Alien group and he gave them permission to abduct a certain amount of humans each year. ------------------ | ||

I seriously am like holding my sides laughing so hard. Okay, so the two sides arguing here are 1) that aliens are amongst us and there is a conspiracy by the government and even possibly a groups that is so large that it is a secret society OR 2) that alien shit is full of crap and obviously that the bible is what is right. does anyone else here see the humor in this? am I the only one? ------------------ | ||

After reading this web site it seems that Gay-Eurocentric-Elitest-House_of_Windsor types are funnelling all of their secret alien funds and activities in a huge underground complex located under DIA through the use of the CIA and FEMA. I geuss the hired the Masons to build the place. Oh and the Chinese are making boots for the U.S. military.

Well, very interesting posts! I do believe we are being conditioned. I do believe that someday we will all be "tagged" with a chip of some sort. They already do it for animals (the avid chip) and they are also experimenting with a chip that is powered by the host from his/her own bioelectric energy. Would be able to kick et's ass? Sure, just because you can travel huge distances and are technically smart, does not mean you are tactically smart or stronger. Never underestimate the human will to survive. As for the bible, it does have interesting stuff in it. It can be taken two ways:
Or as an historical document outlining a plan laid down years past, in the only manner understandable at the time. Me personally I do not believe, but that does not mean that it does not contain relevant information. For example, I believe the way an invasion would go down would be similar to the sci-fi show First Wave. Why? You ask. First you come upon a race that has rather quickly evolved up the food chain to where we now have weapons of nuclear capability, we are harnessing light for weapons, have travelled to space and so on... The first thing any invading or defending group needs to do or should do is gather intelligence. The more the better. Second we be prepping the group for invasion Finally, would be the invasion and fairly easy conquest if steps 1 and 2 were completed properly. Why bother? One of the main goals of any war/invasion is to obtain real estate. Now, if this real estate is unusable then the confict is of no use to you. Or to those who may survive. So, if you can minimize the destruction to the land you seek (planet) then you have attained your goal of expansion. Especially if you need the resources. If that is the case why not have done it 10 or 20 thousand years ago (first reported sightings) at the time we may have appeared as inconsequential. Then they saw how fast we progressed and now they be interested. ------------------ | ||

They already do it for animals (the avid chip) and they are also experimenting with a chip that is powered by the host from his/her own bioelectric energy. My dog has one of those chips - right between the shoulder blades. although it needs no power, it is really more like a coil and resonates at a given frequency. So, just for the sake of argument, let's say we all get these chips. obviously this doesn't help us none - hot damn! but how is it exactly that it helps THE MAN again? and since we are talking about a god, and we also are talking about aliens - why is that they are always seen ass being similar to humans? god is supposed to look like man - why? why not like rats? there are far more of them. ------------------ | ||

interesting point ThickDog. when I was little and first learning about chemistry and electrons and such (my dad at the time was an analytical chemistry prof - so I learned early), I used to think that our entire universe was actually just one molecule in something else - and then there were millions of others. I've since learned enough particle physics and such that I no longer think that, but it was a fun thing to ponder. ------------------ | ||

quote: Ok sure, The Bible talks about Israel getting their land back, which did happen in 1949. The book of Job mentions the Earth as being round, and suspended by nothing, a pretty accurate description considering that book is 4000 years old. There is quite a lot of imagery in the book of Revelation about things that are happening now, a 3rd of the driking water being contaminated. Take the 4 horsemen, which have the power to kill by war, famine, and pestilence. Take a look at the world today, hunger will only get worse, war will only get worse, pestilence, don't even ask about that, we're supposed to have become very advanced, yet millions of diseases, mutations, superbugs are winning the war. Even if you don't believe in the Bible you can't just dississ it either... | ||

Chesty, a few questions for you. If we are being conditioned to accept aliens, then obviously somebody thinks/knows they exist. If they are technologically advanced enough to reach Earth, then my assumption would be that they could destroy us just as easily as they got here. How would conditioning the public help our relations with aliens? I don't think any species of alien would be interested in coming here just to chat or be friends. Their goals would be to take over, or use the Earth's natural resources, including humans. If they are both technologically advanced enough to reach Earth, have the power to destroy all life that exists on Earth, and have no reason to be here other than to take what is ours, then how would conditioning the public help to defend the planet? You can give every person on Earth an AK-47, but it is my belief that if the aliens can get here, then AK-47's won't really impede their progress to any great degree. Secondly, who would be interested in conditioning the public to accept this? You will no doubt answer that it will prevent panic and worldwide chaos. Doubtful. No matter how much conditioning we have, if some giant discs flew out of the sky and started blasting everything, I doubt people would sit around and say, "well, this was to be expected." No, they will be screaming, panicking, and the morons will be looting. So, who's interested in conditioning us? The government? If certain people in government actually had communication with aliens, then they could either a)benefit from newfound knowledge, or b)compromise their existence. In other words, we could learn from them or beg them to allow us to live. Either way, if you knew that our alien friends were going to basically one day take everything from us, would you want to let the secret out? Especially if you had negotiated with the aliens to keep them a secret until their work was done? I don't think so. You're going to keep your mouth shut knowing that you'll come out alive when everyone else is being blasted. On the other side of the coin, would you want to share knowledge that wasn't of this earth? What if they told you how they travelled through time. Would you really want to tell everybody, "hey, aliens are here and they are going to teach us how to travel through time!" I don't think so. Can you imagine what this information would be worth? Nobody would be interested in sharing it if they knew it. Just some thoughts Chesty. Although I don't agree with you, I think you make some valid points. -TG | ||
Elite Bodybuilder Posts: 673 |
Ok sure, The Bible talks about Israel getting their land back, which did happen in 1949. Well, I have to give the same argument to that as I would to Nostrodomus' (sp?) predictions - if you make general ones and especially not bound by time constraints, they are bound to come true eventually - a mere 4000 years for this one? not too bad.
obviously you are set in believing one thing, and I'm obviously set in another and we aren't going to sway each other. but I'd like to point out that I'm looking at the points you are raising and giving reasoned answers back - whereas you are making statements based on a book that has been passed down through years and years, translated over and over again - so there is so much room for error that even if it does "predict" something, is that what the original writing meant? ------------------ | ||

I believe the Bible, book of Revelations, and aliens can all be worked into a believable scenario that does not involve invasions. The Bible describes the Anti-Christ as a benevolent being that brings peace and answers to world troubles. He is given power over the European government in return for the benevolent answers he has given the world. Wouldn't that dovetail nicely with a space alien that lands bringing us advanced technology that solves our problems. Especially if the alien looked a lot like us? If an alien could solve war, hunger, pestilance, disease....we'd most likely elect him president, and then king. But of course there would also be those humans in the resistance movement that would try to kill him. The Bible says the Anti-Christ will recover from a fatal wound. Wouldn't that fit with an alien race possessing advanced medical technology. And once the alian/President/King/Anti-Christ recovered from the dead, he would be ready to pronounce himself God. | ||
Elite Bodybuilder Posts: 1018 |
John, have you been reading that book "Left Behind"? Just wondering. -TG | ||
Cyborg Posts: 4729 |
First lets start with the 'ol bible. Ezekial gives a perfect description of an alien encounter. If you read it with an open mind you will see what I am talking about. Now imagine you are an early human, the most unusual thing you have seen is lightning. Given your technical knowledge and skills of the time, if an advanced race either humans from the future or aliens in general decided to land and you witnessed it how would you descrbe it? Certainly based on you level of knowledge and known references. Suppose now that I decide to talk to you. I would have to find a way to describe what I know in terms you can understand. Try to exlain helicopter or tv to someone of that era. Now, I describe to you how the earth is round, in space,and suspended by nothing. I explain to you how the earth was made and so on. But I do it in terms that you can understand. All of those events could be taken as being divine. Why do alien descriptions look like us. Now given that life can be carbon based, silicon based, methane based and so on, what sets us apart from other creatures besides our ability to reason? It is our thumbs, (sounds silly) try to hold a pencil, pick up a glass, turn a screwdriver. All but impossible or at the very least extremely difficult. If we look at how we evolved over time, we did so for specific reasons. We adapted to our environment, we excelled at survivability and so on till we at the modern man. Given this, it is quite possible that other races would evolve similarily. They may not be as tall or strong (maybe stronger) The gravitational fields if any they developed in can account for certain traits (short and stocky or tall and lanky) Most likely, a race that travls into space would be similar to us in many ways. Why condition us? Suppose my ultimate goal is to enslave the race. As I stated earlier an undamaged earth is worth more than a damaged one. Again, I reiterate that just because you can go from one side of the galaxy to the other does not mean that you can fight. Even if you could we can put up a hell of a resistance and win. To condition you makes you more susceptible to the lies they would be bring. Hence, congquer you without killing you. On the other hand they may be doing this to help us with the reality that others exist. They may mean no harm and want to be friends. But then again.... ------------------ | ||

One thing that amazes me is that those who believe in god, (not all, but most) refuse to believe that alien life exists. Why? If they are going to get mad at those of us for not believing the bible even so called proof and evidence of it is presented, then they cannot get mad at us for the opposite belief. ------------------ | ||

If they are going to get mad at those of us for not believing the bible even so called proof and evidence of it is presented, then they cannot get mad at us for the opposite belief." This strikes me as strange too. If there is a God as described in the Bible, then is it all that unreasonable to believe that we aren't the only species that he has created in the ENTIRE universe? C'mon now. Or, do creatures billions of light years away have another God, different from ours? For us to expect that there isn't anything else in the hundreds of billions of galaxies out there, well, is naive. Chesty, I totally agree with what you say. I can ask questions that just turn Bible-boys faces deep red. They are logical questions and questions of reason, but they hate me for asking them. I am supposed to blindly accept whatever is spoonfed to me, just like they did. -TG | ||
Elite Bodybuilder Posts: 845 |
Although I believe in the bible I do not hate you nor do I turn red faced at questions...ALot of questions reguarding the bible I do not have answers to since I haven't read all of the bible or necessarily live the way it talks about, but saying that people who believe in the bible do not like you for asking logical questions that is crazy...I would be glad to try and answer any questions that the bible might be associated with...It's not that I was spoonfed and haven't learned anything else, my faimly stopped going to church when I was young, but I still choose to believe the bible based on experiences in my life, not what church has taught me what logical questions do you have perhaps I can answer a few | ||

This is true from what I know and feel, the government is trying to condition us. Brain washing, I would not go so far on this subject. But the evidence is enough and the statement by Carl Sagan, is to paraphrase what he said in his book "Contact". What a waste of space to only have us" or something like it. I cannot reason this feeling away. I know there is something going on but it is only a Don't try believe the media as they are part of this. They don't want to rock the boat either. | ||

TxCollegeguy : Alright then.. If you dont believe we exist before we are concieved, then why would you not believe the same is true when we die.. I mean to say, that we just simply no longer exist.. Is it because the thought of "just not being anywhere anymore, with absolutely no type of conscienceness" is very scary and uncomfortable to belive in ?? Like I said earlier, most people seek religon out to comfort them.. Comfort does not necessarily equate to truth... Personally, I do believe in God, I would just like to see what you or others think about this.. One more question.. Anyone answering this : Do you have science or do you have faith ?? | ||
Amateur Bodybuilder Posts: 78 |
Chesty's got it right once again. We ARE being conditioned as a society to accept aliens-be they an actual or 'perceived' threat to humanity. As far as all of these sightings and abductions by aliens, there is still not ONE shred of credible evidence that they exist or have visited Earth. While I do accept that possibility that life might be out there, there is NO tangible proof that they do. UFO's definitely exist. "Flying discs" were developed by the Nazis during WWII and the technology taken by the US and Soviet Union afterwards. Isn't it coincidental that the first 'flying saucer' sighting occured in 1947 by Kenneth Arnold and have really been unabated ever since? This percieved alien threat is being used to unite the world against a common enemy- i.e. create a world socialist, totalitarian, goverment where the elite control everybody else. Just look at the US-our rights are being taken away on a daily basis-private ownership of handguns WILL be prohibited-it's just a matter of time. Kids today are being ingrained with the thought that guns are evil and after a certain number of school shootings, most of society will say enough is enough. Our Constitutional rights have been eroding away for years;it's just a matter of time when they too will be gone-in fact they are already gone. Ever read any of the Executive Orders that have been passed? It basically throws the Constitution into the toilet and the president can be an almighty dictator. Anyways, Chesty is again right on the mark. Chesty, research it some more and you'll find how all this stuff ties together. You might even decide that we didn't go to the moon! B.T.W., I have an aerospace engineering degree also. | ||

There are some people who study the Bible who if you ask them they can quote lines and it's amazing...If you ever get the chance to meet one of these people they can really open your eyes...I remember when Jesus said "There won't be rock upon rock here" (or something like that) i think he was refering to Jerusalem...and after he got crucified the Romans took over the region and the whole Jerusalem was destroyed...nothing was left. Here on this board we have more questions that answers..but if we could get somebody who studied the Bible we would see that some of the answers are right into it. To those who don't want to believe, don't believe... | ||
Freak Posts: 2372 |
MDGUY: I see you are a student of the New World Order theories. This is quite plausible and is happening no doubt as the conspirators themselves suprisingly are pretty open about it. I believe that alien life-forms are visiting the earth however, but your side has quite a strong argument as well. | ||
Elite Bodybuilder Posts: 845 |
Steelplate:I believe a person will go to heaven or hell after they die because in living life you have a spirit, its something you were born with and had from the moment of being conceived...That spirit will thus move on into the afterlife...As for not having an existance after you die, I would not like that to happen, but if it does then so be it, I guess it's only a matter of time before we all find out the answer to that question I am spiritual person, and wouldn't call myself a religous person...I believe that God gave us the ability to find the answers to the questions we seek. I also believe you can believe in science and religion. Ever notice how some of the early scientists were men of the Clergy? As for my theory how we are here today I tend to take the clock maker theory and believe God started the chain of events that has led us to where we are today. No I'm not saying it was predestined fate, because I think everyman and woman has the ability to affect his/her future by making their own decessions. Also I think God would want us to evolve and to learn more about what we are or whats around us. Everytime I mention this to someone when discussing things like this (on both sides of the arguement) I hear you can't believe in science and you can't believe in Religion...I ask them why not?Just because the bible doesn't give the step by step scientific instructions to Adam and Eve, and science hasn't got all the answers either. I think the bible is just a guide to us to the big picture, and we have to find and search out the answers to everything else. | ||
Cyborg Posts: 4729 |
Interesting to see someone else make the discovery that god did not give the recipe for making man. I for one don't believe in god because according to the bible I have only two choices. Either follow and believe (go to heaven) or don't believe or not follow (go to hell) To me that is fate as a two-edged sword. Since I do not believe in fate, I do not believe in god. Try this one on for size. Suppose you were an advanced race (I mean very advanced) You clone a couple of people like you except that you put them on a distant planet and let them learn on their own. You give them enough knowledge to survive except with a nudge here and there. You then explain to them in a primitive concept their creation. This continues off and on over time. Could end up with modern christianity. Or, as in 2001 space odyssey you influence evolution with a slight nudge in one direction and then let it go on its own. Religion/faith ever since recorded history and before, man has been trying to answer the one question that cannot be answered, What happens when we die? Since man instinctively hates not having an answer he invents god and heaven. The greeks/Romans and such did so to explain the seasons, thunder, lightening, rain, wind and so on with numerous other gods. So to me, god is an answer that trys to comfort man in his quest for the answer to the only unanswerable question: What happens when we die. Science is alot like religion. It requires a certain amount of faith. Just as in the movie Contact, when Jodi Foster was being grilled by the senate, she was asked why they should believe her, and she wanted so desparately to say you have to have faith and when they asked her why she believed it even though she had no evidence, again she could not say what she knew to be the truth. It was her faith and belief that she did make the trip. The movie, Carl Sagaan was trying to convey this concept I believe. That as a scientist, science is not enough. Science without faith is cold and empty. So, yes, I believe in science and I have faith, just not for a god. PS, I have been to the new Denver airport and crawled over every square inch and my friend took about 10 rolls of film. We could not find anything unusual about it, except for some strange wall paintings in the tram tunnels and the very strange modern architecture. ------------------ | ||

It would be interesting if it were true that there is no afterlife. No one on this would have to worry about heaven or hell anymore. But since nobody actually knows, I can't dismiss the posibility that there is. As for extraterrestrial life, I wouldn't say that I don't believe it could exist somewhere else. I do find it highly improbable though because of the highly complex conditions in which life would have to form(which is also a reason I don't believe in evolution) | ||

Hmm... Jesus abductions. Interesting theory. I'm interested if you think that he'll be doing the anal probes or not... ------------------ | ||

quote: Yes, I actually hope that there are aliens and I tend to believe a few of the close encounter sightings are credible but having science background, I must rationally say to myself that there is no proof as of yet even though my gut feeling says and hopes they exist. Some of the credible UFO sightings only have the crafts measuring 4 ft high, which would mean that it was remotely operated, flown by an army of midgets, or aliens-these and all of the cattle mutilation shit gives credible ammunition to your opinion. BTW to the person that mentioned William Cooper: He is an interesting person to listen to, albeit controversial to say the least. He has a program on shortwave radio anybody can pick up.
