My question is........
WHY ??
They can't REALLY believe we'd all run into the sea raving and shrieking in an attempt at mass suicide, were it to ever come to light that, yes,
contrary to everything we've been told before, aliens are REAL......can they?
Actually, from what I have read... and heard on UFO shows... YES, the governments of the world actually do believe that Mankind could NOT handle the revelation that E.T.s do exist... Apparently several reports have been written that have concluded that our society would "collapse" if that knowledge was revealed... And recommended covering it all up.
However, that's the belief in the early 1900s, when UFO incidents like the Roswell Crash happened...
I heard a great explanation that makes perfect sense to support that... Basically...
Just two years after the worst war the world have ever seen... The world was not ready to accept... That their belief concerning how GOD "Made Us In His Image", meaning there were No Aliens, was all a LIE... And Aliens were flying their UFOs all over the world and there was nothing that we could do to stop them...
Even today, I don't think we could win an interstellar war against Aliens... but back in 1947? We did NOT have a space program or lasers, and Jet Planes were still in their infancy... Certainly NOT then.
Hell, people were too scared about humans issues, like the Russians, and thus the Cold War Began, and things like the Hollywood Blacklist came about because of it...
The Russians? They were nothing compared to:
the Martians and their Flying Saucers who wanted to come to Earth and Eat Us.The fear of Aliens was real... and still IS!
While some of the individuals here may be ready for "First Contact"... I happen to side with the government, and believe that many people STILL are not ready to handle to truth...
In Fact,
SOME, people even seem to refuse to accept even the possibility, that they are "OUT THERE"... I really don't think anyone wants to know how they will react when Aliens start landing across the planet!
But, now, the big problem, is really more about the fact that IF the Governments and Scientists have known about Aliens for decades, and have been covering it all up for so long... I don't think Aliens will be the main focus, but people will be asking, What else have they been lying to us about, and keeping from us... At that point no one would ever trust or governments ever again... Not that many people do now. LOL!
I'm not sure if Aliens have ever visited our planet in the Ancient Past, or even in recent times... But, I do believe they are out there...
But, thankfully, since the 1950s (and even before that)... Science Fiction media has been preparing the world for the eventual day, when the Existence of Alien Life is finally proven to us...
Even the Church, has now stated that believing in Aliens, does not go against religion.
Most of us, have gotten used to the idea now.
Scientists keep making incredible discoveries every day, and sooner rather than later... what they end up finding won't be able to be brushed off or ignored anymore...
What once was viewed as nonsense and misinterpreted sightings, no longer seems to be the how the world views the phenomenon...
Many government officials, Industry Experts, Trained Professionals, and Numerous Reliable Eyewitnesses, have now stated that UFOs ARE real...
Hell, we even have RADAR evidence of their existence...
I don't think it will be too much longer before all is revealed, and it will become a regular part of our lives...
But the question is: What are these UFOs?
Aliens?
Inter-Dimensional Craft?
Living Beings from "Atlantis"?
Time Travelers?
or
Super Super Top Secret Craft that many in our own Governments don't even know about?
