IMO, the only opinion that is wrong is when people believe their opinions to be fact and then force it on others.
Some opinions are easy to debunk...but as always their is a grey area.
I say people can believe whatever they want to believe, as long as it doesn't go so far as to infringe on others beliefs (like the Nazi, the "retard" haters, the "drugs-are-the-root-of-the-problem" people, the Homophobes, etc).
IMO, every opinion should be allowed to exsist as long as it hurts no one...and what does the belief in aliens hurt?
Evolving, I think this is great...I think we will understand each other and our views better because of it. Love to you!

Well thanks for staying on topic! HA
I was trying to get people not to discuss our opinions or any beliefs.. but about all this junk information being spread over the internet. This is the information age and there is alot of bs out there.
In anyway was i saying that i do or do not believe in aliens.
Websites like zetatalk.com and stuff about the greys and reptillian races... Personally i think its all made up, just like the bible. See my bible alien connection?
Today i was told that i was closed minded because i said that the bible is fiction.
I also tried to explain logic to this fellow but nothing but a no response to all my ideas. I guess i can throw that approach at trying to turn people who believe the bible as writing by god. Oh well!
Did i clear up anything?
ChubbSubb and Autonomous thanks for ur input.
So now can we discuss what im trying to get at? Do you think that all this information about aliens is being used to cloud the minds of the alien believers even more?
Everyone else thank you too.
Peace, Droz

Yes, but the idea that this or that is bs is an opinion. So opinions are exactly what you are talking about friend.

IMO, yes their is a lot of "counter information" if you will being put out their to clog a clear perception...however what the info is that is "crap" and what the info is that is "real" or "reputabe" is a matter of debate.

I am only as blinded by "mysticism" as you are by "skepticism" I say people can believe whatever they want to believe, as long as it doesn't go so far as to infringe on others beliefs every opinion should be allowed to exsist as long as it hurts no one...and what does the belief in aliens hurt?
Thankyou.

Another clip from a book!
We have divided the world into uncountable divisions of individulas and groups that we like or dislike, approve of or condemn. We do violence every time we attempt to sway someone to our point of view, or dissuade someone from a course of action that we, in our arrogance, feel is wrong. Violence is the attempt to impress our will or beliefs onto others, or to prevent others from infringing on our own ideals and principles.
The first step in understanding our violent nature might be the observation that violence is stimulated whenever our security is threatened. We have built complex walls of relationships, ideals, financial arrangements and religious beliefs, behind which we hide from change and uncertainty. We arrange our days to minimize threats to the structure we have so painstakingly constructed. We keep the fear of hunger at bay by storing up wealth. We comfort ourselves in the face of death with religious beliefs that promise the perpetuation of our individuality.

Oh, I'm sorry. I should of known when you responded to my post with ".....you have no fucking clue..." that you were being friendly and civil. Excuse me for the misunderstanding. You must read my first post on this thread over agian then man......where i say i have no fucking clue to what reality is either.......and a smiling winking face at the end of it.......
Do you want to turn this into a flame war? After reading your posts and seeing the shallowness of your thought patterns, it comes as no surprise when looking at your profile that you are only 19.
you where the first one to flame me man remeber this incoherent rant...
Listen Chubby, there's no reason to get testy with me unless you're one of the cognitively challenged who happens to let his little mind fill up with mush just because it sounds pretty. Stand in the subway tracks and try to stop a train with beautiful thoughts of sunshine and peppermint and we'll see how the principle of inertia puts your sorry ass into the realm of non-existence. That would be a fatal lesson in reality for you.
After reading your posts and seeing the shallowness of your thought patterns, it comes as no surprise when looking at your profile that you are only 19.
I have not seen you post any deep thought here yet........i feel i have.... I may only be 19, but how about you try dealing with a pontentialy terminal illness, such as cancer and see how that can change your thoughts on life. I may be young but i have a value for this life that you probably do not have, dealing with cancer is the biggest trip i have ever had.......
You my friend, are shallow....
Cool out, i never meant to offend you at all.....i guess i put the word 'fucking' in the wrong spot of my post, relax.... Peace, Trev

ChubbSubb, if you're trying to bring peace to this exchange you're going about it the wrong way by sending mixed messages... "you where the first one to flame me man remeber this incoherent rant..."
Let's recap, my so called "incoherent rant" was in response to this prior statement, "What is reality?.....you have no fucking clue...
You then proceed to attempt to whip me with the olive branch by stating the the following, "...I have not seen you post any deep thought here yet..." "...i have a value for this life that you probably do not have..." "...You my friend, are shallow...."
But finally, a token effort at diplomacy... "Cool out, i never meant to offend you at all.....i guess i put the word 'fucking' in the wrong spot of my post, relax.... Peace, Trev"
Do you want to incite a negative response or don't you? If not, I suggest you do a little proof reading before final submission of your statements. Otherwise, continue this in the OTD forum where it belongs.
