JW> Remember We'r Only been into Space for less then 40 years other
JW> Aliens Races have been doing this for 100000s of Years..
PA> How do you know? Told you, did they? Do you have it in writing?
JW> No! but tell me the chances or Odds. that i am wrong!
JW> there are billions of Stars and The same must apply to Planets
JW> and if the Universe is Over 100000s of Years old. then dont you think
JW> one race or another is visiting this planet.
Your argument:
There are billions of stars.
Therefore, there are billions of planets.
The universe is over hundreds of thousands of years old.
Therefore, alien races have been into space for hundreds of
thousands of years.
Therefore, at least one alien race is visiting this planet.
There's so many holes in that argument that I'm not even going to
try to answer it.
JW> if the Reports of 1000s of people been Abducted by aliens are
JW> True and i do think they are, as they all can not be Crackpots!
Your argument:
Either abduction reports are true, or all abductees are crackpots.
Abductees can not all be crackpots.
Therefore, abduction reports are true.
My response:
The fault in that argument is that this is not an either/or
situation. Some of the stories could be true, and the rest false. Of
those that are false, some people could be crazy, some could be lying
outright, and some could just have been honestly mistaken.
JW> Granted they are some out there the BullDust about seeing aliens
JW> but if just 1 out of 9999% is it real. then you must be among whole
JW> lot of Crazy people and you better move to a uncharted island as your
JW> among Millions that think aliens are real now be real here!
I didn't understand a word of that. No, tell a lie, I understood
most of the words (except 9999%, whatever that is), it's just the
order they're in that I'm having trouble with.
Try to state your position more clearly, please.
JW> There is something going on inside close doors at the pentagon and at
JW> Area-51. or even closer to home at Pine gape..
Quite likely. But why should it have anything to do with aliens?
JW> why the Coverups! and Lies...
Just so we know what we're talking about, which particular coverups
and lies are you referring to?
JW> the lies about roswell, by the US Millatry and lets face it they
JW> lied for 50 years about what realy happen there. Dummies my
JW> Butt!. the wittnesses saw Aliens not Dummies.
How do you know?
Unless you were there as well, you have no way of knowing that they
haven't lied about seeing aliens.
Even if they're telling what they believe to be the truth, none of
them wrote down what they saw or made a statement at the time. All
first told their stories decades later, when their memories were - to
be honest - not as reliable as could be hoped.
JW> dont you think if you or I where there. would we not know what a
JW> Dummies looked like Even in 1947.
Yes.
But if we didn't see dummies, would we keep quiet for twenty years
before telling someone?
And if we did see dummies, would we still remember clearly that
they were dummies twenty years later?
