What if?

Even though I thoroughly enjoy both Hoagland and Sitchin, we must keep in mind that neither of these people are from the academic world. Therefore, academics will bash them, and probably in their minds, rightly so, because both of these people are going against orthodoxy, and perhaps that's what is so attractive about them. In these modern times, with computers, it's pretty hard not to know of these two guys, especially if one is interested in this sort of thing.

Personally, I find it much more logical - in fact, downright more probable - that earth has been visited in the past than to accept that we all once started out as pond scum!! Come on!! The question for evolution is not HOW did evolution take place and where is the missing link, the question is WHY would pond scum do that in the first place? It had to be that it wasn't the pond scum itself, but what was "seeded" in the pond. It grew the way it was meant to do. Pond scum is still pond scum. Scientists think they can show a line backwards to depict the evolution of certain species. Perhaps that's true to a point. But MY point is that it was not the pond scum that we all hark back to, it was an original seed. You can plant a pea a thousand times and it will still bear peas, not beans. UNLESS it is genetically altered, and who or what has the knowledge to do this?

The question is - what difference does it make if there are hidden agendas or not? On the one hand, supposedly the governments are hiding the fact that there ARE et's out there, that we HAVE been visited before, that civilization DID come from off planet, etc. etc. Then we have the other side, where people like Gene Roddenberry and other producers put out all these films about aliens, until we're so flooded with it, children now are growing up accepting it as fact. So what's the point? It used to be said that these things were hidden in case of mass panic. Bullcrap. If anything, curiosity would run rampant and we'd all want to see what these folks look like and how they live on their planet. So how DOES Gene Roddenberry and a couple of other sci fi producers come up with ALL these ideas? From real life of course. The government's other side is working at letting the world know there's aliens out there in a fashion more "suitable" to the easily panicked.

What will be, will be. There have always been those who seek power - taught to them obviously in the beginnings - by their "gods" - to rule over their fellow beings. There has always been a head honcho, there has always been underlings. Where's the surprise in that? What difference is it going to make if the president is president of the United States or if he's president of the whole world? The only reason there would be a president of the world, is if there are other worlds he has to deal with. Right now, the president deals with leaders of other countries. Even in that, no one person can satisfy the demands of every one else, so how does anyone think one person can represent a whole planet?
