Here is an exercise for which I will provide the answer by the end here - but, you should 'Google Search' it first before consulting the answer below (which in any case I might simply provide in the comments section later):
From where, does the phrase 'a horse by any other name' come?
Google Search, please.
Most casual observers regularly say, when it comes to ET's - where are the official sources claiming they exist?

Try the following -
Jack Parsons - problematic, but still (Jet Propulsion Labs CALTECH - aka NASA)
Russell Targ (the world's historically leading primary researcher into lasers and masers)
Dr David Hawkins (the Manhattan Project)
Christopher Mellon (DIA)
Michael Collins (NASA astronaut)
Edwin Aldrin (NASA astronaut)
...really, you can go on for pages, and categorize those listings into those who say they know for certain, and those scientists who say they believe on account of the statistical probability and so on.
What you will very soon encounter, however, when you look into any or all of these people, is that they spend just as much time and energy talking about 'god' and 'religious beliefs' and meditation and 'mind matters,' you might say - as they do actual hard metal shiny disc-shaped objects with little green people inside them.
And I'm going to tell you why that is.
Early August 1945, the United States government, led by President Harry S. Truman, dropped the nuclear bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The Hiroshima bomb was dropped August 6, and the Nagasaki bomb on August 9.
Nagasaki |
Beforehand, all of the chief scientists, chief technicians and chief engineers began compiling a letter to Truman, indicating that they were not in favor of dropping the bomb on civilian populated areas first, but recommended a detonation high overhead as a warning.
Edward Teller, the man most responsible of all for the successful manufacture and functioning of the nuclear weapon, refrained from adding his name to the letter, having been encouraged by J. Robert Oppenheimer to leave the decision in the hands of the better-informed political leaders in Washington...
Afterwards, Teller said his decision not to sign was a mistake.
Dr David Hawkins' role in the Manhattan Project, was as a highest level communications liaison officer between all of the scientists, many of whom were notoriously difficult to relate to when it came to 'normal' other people, and exhibited some irascibility even at the best of times anyway. Hawkins was a mathematician of some regard among the top-line serious professional mathematicians but his main game was psychology.
Later on, Dr David Hawkins owned one of the most successful and lucrative commercial psychology practices coast-to-coast in the United States, and that was even after he went into virtual retirement from that to concentrate on 'meditation.'
Much later on still, during the Cuban Missile Crisis, there were a set of incidents, which dovetailed into vague concerns that had been being voiced by a number of high-placed scientists and some military people as well, that they had been contacted by ET Aliens and told outright that there were to be exactly no future actual using of any nuclear weapons whatsoever and that if it were ever attempted again, there would be the most dire consequences - literally carried out by ET's against whoever was trying to use nuclear weapons.

The series of incidents, consisted of warnings that nuclear secured facilities would lose all electrical power, even from the localized backup sources, at a specific time - and that is what eventuated. It is from that that sprung quiet inquiries as to how real such warnings were and whether or not they really had come from Extraterrestrial (IE Alien Intelligent Being) sources.
The moral dimension regarding the uses of nuclear weapons was already a driving force behind the widespread interest that so many of those who had worked on the Manhattan Project, as well as other top secret mainly weapons research programs - had begun to show in things like Eastern moral philosophy and Buddhism and all things 'Good versus Evil/God versus 'not God.'
Dr David Hawkins has interesting available work out there, which goes into this subject of 'I versus other I,' but his work also shows a lot of his own pre-commitment to Buddhist philosophy and ideology, really.
Dr Steven Greer, prominent ufologist. |
Dr Steven Greer, who is not specifically from an actual CIA or military project or program (although he also has had some 'near-to-fully-official' involvement in related official research, at least, since his projects at moments received CIA and Military funding), has a very strong interest also, in meditation and the moral dimension of ET Alien encountering.
Now, here's my point - if you are unable to find out where the statement I outlined in the first paragraph above came from, and let's submit that neither will the whole entire information resources of the CIA itself either be able to say, and the whole panoply of US academia, then - what is the point of any of you pretending you are even close at all to being able to engage with ET Aliens because you are smart enough to?
You are not, smart enough to. Yet.
So, what's the answer? (And why is it important, of course...).
