Ignore the evidence why don't you? Oh, I see you did, T' being a higher life form, (though we don't really know where from), has spoken, I for one would rather follow his guide than you and your stupid theories.
O.K. Tealeaf, I've said enough to make it you're round next time we meet.

Evidence?
I have never asked anyone to follow me, All I ask is people make there own mind up and not be a sheep.

O.K. so you don't want followers and yet anyone the doesn't believe your version of the truth is labelled a sheep in your mind, if they dare to dismiss your ideas, could it not be that I and many like me, that do not agree with you are also refusing to act like sheep?
Perhaps, we have given your ideas lots of thought long ago and not just dismissed them out of hand?
We may have come to the conclusion that such prattlings aren't worth giving any credence to?
I have no problem with you having these views so long as if there are any sheep on here they don't have to fooled into believing all the ravings from you and your ilk.

Maybe YOU have concluded that -as is your right
...but your very use of the word 'prattlings' is your attempt to influence others to reach the same conclusions you have.
Such denigration of the opinions of others is adversarial and leads to the mud slinging contests that have caused some to cease using this forum.

Re: UFOS over Preston
Yes, but he does have a point.
Just because I disagree with your outlook and have provided evidence against theory's
on here, I have been dismissed, ignored and considered as sheep.

I have never described you so.
Your opinion is a valuable as anyones,
and you never belittle others when expressing it.
I dismiss the opinions of those that do.
Civilised debate is what we are here for.
Anyone's viewpoint is influenced by their experience.

Why would I want followers? my version of the truth? if you read my posts I only show what information is out there, and always say people should make up there own mind.
Many people dismiss what I like to discuss that is there right, I welcome constructive debate and a bit of fun, its what its all about (Notice the after the sentance in my prevous post).

Re: UFOS over Preston
I don't find UFO info on the web to be doom filled or scary.
A person's perception is influenced by mainstream media who programme the public mind to regard this news as a threat.
When you read more about it, you get a more balanced view.
ETs are 'goodies' and 'baddies' just as we are
......and the good news is
there are more goodies than baddies
Jaysay - you will find it tame compared to King and Koontz

Indeed we are. So why ruin it by posting all this codswallop about UFO's on here? There are more than enough websites catering just for the cranks, the crazies and the conspiracy theories so please, please, please take this infantile vacuity somewhere else.

Re: UFOS over Preston
How can you be so absolutely certain that aliens don't exist?
I'm still open minded enough to accept that there is a possibility that we might not be alone, that doesn't mean I believe that they do, just that it's a possibility. I would love to have proof that aliens exist, it'd be cool.

Many years ago, lots of people in this country and elsewhere in Western civilisation believed in the existance of unicorns, griffins, dragons, mermaids, firedrakes, hydras and a whole plethora of exotic and wonderful beasts. Despite centuries of the best efforts of science, no evidence of their ever or current presence on this planet has been found. I doubt that even the likes of Margaret or Mr D would now believe in such creatures, although had they been around a millenia ago they would probably have been in Accy town centre every sunday morning making speeches on such supposed entelechy.
The simple point is that, like the strange creatures of the past, there is no verifiable scientific evidence of of 'saucers' and little green men and so the only logical conclusion is that they do not exist.
