• THE COMING GREAT DELUSION—PART 2: The Religion of UFO Phenomena
  by Tom Horn, https://www.skywatchtv.com/
  If you doubt that the UFO phenomenon is a religion, check out one of the major UFO festivals sometime. People travel great distances to Roswell, New Mexico; McMinnville, Oregon; Kecksburg, Pennsylvania; the Burning Man festival and other places hosting conferences to celebrate the possibility of ETI contact.

If the point of these conferences is to explore whether we’ve been contacted, what the ETIs want, and ways to visit Zeta Reticuli, shouldn’t the how of all this be part of the discussion?

Because then we’ll finally know.
