Otherworldly visitors at the Roswell museum.

A recent poll indicated that up to half of Americans believe that some UFOs are alien in origin.

The poll, which was conducted as a collaboration between YouGov and the Huffington Post, asked members of the public whether they believed that at least some UFO sightings can be attributed to visitors from space. The results indicated that 48% believed that some UFOs were indeed extraterrestrial in origin while 35% rejected the idea entirely. The remaining voters were not sure one way or the other.

Former nuclear physicist and long time UFO researcher Stanton Friedman was particularly interested in the results. "It's always been intriguing to me how we act as though only kooks and quacks and little old ladies in tennis shoes believe in flying saucers. And it's never been true, at least for 30 or 40 years," he told the Huffington Post.

Polling director Emily Swanson also weighed in on the results of the vote. "A UFO, in theory could be an unmanned spacecraft, just some kind of contact with alien technology, and not necessarily actual aliens being on Earth physically," she said. "It's very interesting that the people who are on the fence actually seem to be somewhat inclined to say that they do believe."

It's also worthy of note that about 50% of Americans believe the bible to be the actual word of Jesus though......

What this does show is the pointlessness in discluser at this stage. I honestly think a planned and executed process of disclosure would just be opportunistic leverage for a phoney backstory.

Thanks for sharing Skywizard.

They are showing themselves much more often though so maybe they'll be here sooner than we think.

Perhaps we could do a poll to see whether the forum majority believes they come from outside in or inside out Earth, and/or whether they are in linear time, inter-dimensional or both.

On the other hand Lind, can we answer any of those questions with accuracy given that there are so many different races and the individuality and skillsets of each being within that race would be highly subjective surely? A fun one to ponder....

Agreed. I'm currently reviewing all the interviews at Camelot again - they're really cracking good, I really can't express how fab they are if anyone hasn't looked yet- and have taken a left at Phil Schneider, who wasn't directly interviewed by Camelot. What he has to say about Dulce is extraordinary. But to put this against the other information that we have just doesn't gel . . . . . would love to thrash all this out on the forum. . . .

I'll take your advice and head on over there when I get chance Linda and then you've got yourself a sparring partner!

Like you, I've watch just about every interview on Project Camelot. For many years Camelot fueled the fire that's within me on the subject I search for, our ancient past, UFOs, conspiracy, etc. You are right... “they're really cracking good”.

I wrote to Stanton Friedman about my own sighting of a UFO a couple of years ago and I was impressed when he took the trouble to write back and told me a little about his work (and no, he wasn't pushing his latest book :)). A very genuine and decent person . . .
