Dr.Michael Salla's Skeptic Illusionism.

Dr. Michael Salla Skepticism and his Hypothetical World.

Dr. Michael Salla is not afraid of critics because this ex-academic lives in a perfectly organized hypothetical world called EXOPOLITICS.

Now this means also that Dr. Salla, one of the best organized UFO-ET experts, is in fact a skeptic.

For example: Salla writes something about comet Ison and its presumed escort of UFOs. And since he is intelligent enough, he uses question marks, so we get something like: IS COMET ISON ACCOMPANIED BY UFOS?. This is a very frequent practice for the Exopolitician who writes also what follows:

AREA 51 IS NOW OFFICIAL: WHERE ARE THE ALIEN SPACESHIPS?

Again the question marks preserve Salla’s “objectivity “and keeps distance. Same happens when our expert in extraterrestrial diplomacy writes: ALIEN INTERVIEW VIDEO: HOAX OR REAL THING?

You see, the question marks protection is always there, but these are not Michael Salla’s only resource.

Years ago,  Salla tried his hand with the idea that Irak’s Invasion was in fact an operation to close a Stargate(sic.) existent in that middle eastern country. Dr. Salla writes:

“If there is a Stargate existing in Southern Iraq that will play a role in such a 'prophesied return of the gods', then it is most likely that clandestine government organizations that greatly influence or control the Bush administration, are aware of the existence and the role of this Stargate. Iraq's President Hussein is most likely also aware of such a Stargate's existence as might be inferred by his architectural projects intent on reviving the grandeur of early Mesopotamian civilizations, and cementing his place as the restorer of Iraq's past glory. (37) More significantly, his permission for a German team of archaeologists to resume excavations in the Sumerian city of Uruk after detailed underground mapping, suggests that this may be the location of the Sumerian Stargate. This knowledge of a buried Stargate, may also be part of the reason why the German government has been publically opposed to a US preemptive war against Iraq. If in fact both the Hussein regime and the Bush administration believe that a Stargate lies buried in the sands of Southern Iraq, then there most likely exists a race to gain access to it and to control it. William Henry's thesis is that this is indeed the political underpinning of the continuing military conflict in Iraq. (38)”

http://www.exopolitics.org/Study-Paper-2.htm

My bold and underlined words show clearly the Dr. Salla’s style. He never says what he says. He suggests and his “sources” only suggest and consider the possibility of any event.

By the way in his new book: Kennedy’s Last Stand: Eisenhower, UFOs, MJ-12 & JFK’s Assassination.

http://exonews.org/must-read-dr-michael-e-salla-kennedys-last-stand-eisenhower-ufos-mj-12-jfks-assassination/

Dr. Michael Salla gives us the usual lot of hypothetical factoids and pseudo-events.

Probably the book will sell, since there are always clients that love to go into the twilight zone of half truths, insinuations, crude nonsense and fiction sold as fact. 

Dr. Michael Salla created a hypothetical world based on EXOPOLITICS where people learn to practice diplomacy with non-existent extraterrestrial entities.

I am convinced that Dr. Michael Salla not only knows this perfectly well, but he is a skeptic on the closet.  In other words he is a good illusionist, the best, because he doesn't believe in his own tricks.

Ed Komarek, Exofantasists and FREEDOM OF SPEACH

Included here is my exchange of messages with the self proclaimed Exopolitician Ed Komarek. I thought that these messages teach us a lot about the UFO=ET myth and the mythologists methods.

"Exopolitician" Ed Komarek's message

"Hi James that UFO culture guy Tomas started stalking me on my wall spamming and insulting people. He started trashing me and others on my wall and so I blocked him. Then he created an alias to get back on my wall to cause more problems. I then blocked the alias and he tried another. I assume you are the same James Black I knew from years ago who got into it with Jack Sarfatti."

My answer.

"Hi Ed. Sorry but I don't know what are you talking about. If possible send me the messages which insult people. Of course I don't know who is Jack Sarfatti.

By the way, in Facebook as in any other site in the USA there is FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION. Different opinions and polemics. Again let me see those "insults" and of course check if Tomas Scolarici was insulted previously. As you know well, UFO and Exofantasists just hate anyone who demands proofs. They seem to believe that they have the right to insult the "infidels" . After all they are fundamentalists and have the right to call us names. 

After all this is the price to pay when you are an adult playing childish games.

Friendly yours

James Black"

EXO-FANTASISTS and the death of the Extraterrestrial Myth.

Their biggest problem confronted by ET fantasists is to keep the extraterrestrial myth credible, and this is so simply because discredited ideas don’t sell.

It’s not easy to keep people believing that there is a cover up, and that the disclosure of the extraterrestrial presence in our planet will happen soon.

It’s not easy to convince the believers once again that there are one hundred and fifty different ET civilizations visiting our world, as the exopolitician Alfred Webre says. (YES…150 different alien species..!)

Now, the game of credibility has certain rules: some exofantasists believe that the only way of keeping the big cover-up conspiracy credible is to make it bigger and bigger. On the contrary, other “experts” think that to keep people’s faith, the best thing to do is to renew the promise of the imminent disclosure day after day.

In the early years of the ETH, (extraterrestrial hypothesis,) the imaginary ETs were ready for an open contact in days or weeks. Since this contact never happened, some ufologist got the big idea: ETs were secretly in contact with the government..! The cover-up fiction was born.

However, it was also necessary to reproduce the idea of the imminent disclosure, so the UFO fans’  faith remained strong enough to make them buy UFO books and related paraphernalia.

But as we wrote before in this blog, time is the worst enemy, and the unfulfilled promise of a fast disclosure was not a solution.

Richard Dolan was bold enough to write a book about the world after disclosure as if he knew something about such imaginary post-disclosure world, and Dr. Michael Salla kept things going on through the use of question marks and a writing style that gives some impression of personal detachment from the massive nonsense.

The ufologists also seem to believe that the ET presence on our world can be kept alive if they associate it with the paranormal and the occult. This is why some of these self-proclaimed experts define themselves as UFO and Paranormal Researchers.

This alternative definition keeps an exit door open if time and the total absence of evidence kill the ET mythology.  

If this is so, our experts in Extraterrestrial Visitors will become occultists or conspiracy theorists or cosmic alchemists (you name it).

Remember the supreme rule of the nonsense industry: The show must go on…

The horrendous and imaginary world of Richard Dolan

My comments in ITALIC & UNDERLINE

Richard Dolan, now into “dark journalism”, doesn’t recognize limits. In an interview conceded to the Dark journalist …

“…part two of Dark Journalist's interview with historian Richard Dolan they discuss cultural infiltration, mind control and the UFO phenomena. DJ & Dolan also probe(sic) the Manchurian Candidate pattern of strange figures in history and various programs by the Breakaway Civilization that are meant to create false illusions of real events. “

Looks like they are watching old political fiction movies…!

“They also probe (sic) the curious connection between high-level UFO contactee cases and covert intelligence agencies. They also probe deeply into controversial cases such as the Rendlesham Forest Incident, Allagash Encounter, Travis Walton case, MILAB and more.”

“The conclusions they reach will leave you shocked and dismayed at the implications of an ever-expanding worldwide plan.”

I hope these “conclusions” that are anything but conclusive, will leave you laughing and having lots of fun. Also it’s possible that the last thing you will do is to buy Dolan’s books. It’s a bad idea to buy fiction presented as fact, don’t you think?

Richard Dolan and the same preposterous fantasies

Richard Dolan, a well known UFO-Paranormal researcher and fantasist, is into “dark Journalism “. Basically, dark journalists give us a blend of conspiracy theories, misinformation, unreliable anonymous sorces, and imagination.

About this professor of Ufology in the Metaphysical Universe (ONLINE, ) UFOwatchdog says:

So what is the problem? The problem is that Dolan appears to take all evidence at face value. He will quote Morris K. Jessup on an equal basis with Jacques Vallee. He will talk of Gray Barker on the same level as J. Allen Hynek. He puts Philip Corso at the same level as Jerome Clark. In other words, he does not seem to discriminate between sources. He considers them all valid. Rather than sifting through vast amounts of disinformation for the Truth, it’s more like he’s amassing a mound of evidence without regard to its veracity or corroboration. He doesn’t even allude to the possibility that there might be some problems with some of this evidence. The clowns are thrown in with the professors.

Dolan also comes to some dubious conclusions. It’s quite clear he believes James Forrestal was killed for his knowledge that he might spill the beans. And what about Ruppelt’s early death? No one dies of a heart attack at age 37. Hmmm. And James McDonald. Did he commit suicide, really, or was he murdered because he was getting too close to the secrets? This stuff is not corroborated at all. His standards of proof are way too low. This would not be allowed in academia. You wouldn’t be able to get away with this and be considered seriously.

The third problem is that Dolan is now a star. There is no doubt that his various speaking engagements are contributing to his reputation and, by extension, to the monetary rewards of being in the spotlight. His next volume might not make him a millionaire, but it will not be insignificant. For those of you who always jump at monetary involvement, you absolutely must consider this for Dolan as well as Greer.

The fourth problem is that Dolan appears to hang out with discredited people in the field. He shares the stage with people like Greer and Bassett. His theories dovetail nicely with the Exopolitics movement, a cargo cult if there ever was one. If you are known by the company you keep, this is bad news for Dolan. You may say, as he does, that to get the word out he must take advantage of opportunities to do so, but for many, this leaves a sour taste.

Dolan writes well and deserves much of the attention he has received. It's a cut above most Ufological literature. The bottom line is that Dolan’s work appeals to a certain segment of our culture. We all love a conspiracy, and when the government is at fault, we nod our heads sagely in agreement that we knew it all along. Dolan feeds into this world view with detailed facts that suffer from credulity. His focus is very narrow and his work is not nearly as academic and scholarly as it looks. Detail does not substitute for scrutiny and discrimination. –Schuyler

In the interview, Dolan talks about the UFO phenomenon that happens, he says, again and again. Of course what he doesn’t say is that 95 % of UFO sightings are nothing but natural phenomena or man made artifacts. This clarification of course, doesn’t sell books. Truth is a bad business for professional mythologists. The “dark journalist” announces a book about UFO in the 21 century. This that in Dolan’s words, includes a complete analysis of historical Ufology, and this of course means that Richard is writing the same old book…again..! Proof of this is that Dolan tells us that his new volume will be a great source of information for those who meet the UFO phenomenon for the first time. (Call it copy & Paste.)

The interview goes on, and you will find nothing original. Listening and watching Richard Dolan, we learn something important: Not even the imagination of these “self-proclaimed experts” can produce something original.

Professor (online) Richard Dolan informs us that the cover-up will crash when the imaginary ET visitors stop playing hide and seek and show themselves openly. This, in fact is meaningless. A pathetic science-fiction scenario. (What else could be after all?)

Primitive extraterrestrials crashing and playing stupid games.

I think we have the solution for the UFO-ET mystery. An alien civilization is coming here, to our planet because they have a lot to learn from us.

Think about this: UFO, that is alien spacecrafts for the UFO fans, crash constantly. This show how silly and primitive ETs are, and there is more. Instead of learn from us, humans, they play hide and seek in a perfectly stupid game that not only is not funny but keep them ignorant.

These childish entities, (with all due respect to kids that are always more intelligent,) practice abductions and show that their medical technology is primitive and inefficient.

Presumably they are here from the beginning of historical times losing their time with their stupid games.

If these aliens are in contact with the authorities, it is evident that humans learned nothing from the “visitors” and vice versa, the unwanted guests learned nothing from us.  

The mystery here, the amazing miracle is that the UFO industry can keep the myth relatively alive. As the priests do, they profit with some people’s need to believe.

Recommended : This 3 hours documental that debunks the legend of the ancient aliens.

Ancient Aliens Debunked  is essentially a point by point critique of the "ancient astronaut theory" which has been proposed by people like Erich von Däniken and Zecharia Sitchin as well as many others.

The film covers topics like ancient building sites: Puma Punku, The Pyramids, Baalbek, Incan sites, And Easter Island. Ancient artifacts: Pacal's rocket, the Nazca lines, the Tolima "fighter jets", the Egyptian "light bulb", Ufo's in ancient art, and the crystal skulls. Ancient text issues: Ezekiel's wheel, Ancient nuclear warfare, Vimana's, the Anunnaki, and the Nephilim.

Peru’s air force has said it is reviving a department to research anomalous aerial phenomena

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/10/20/perus-air-force-reviving-team-to-investigate-ufos/

Peru’s air force has said it is reviving a department to research anomalous aerial phenomena — in other words, UFO sightings.

For people “who observe seemingly unconventional phenomena, which cause surprise or concern, know that there is an institution that will study and research your information,” Colonel Julio Vucetich said in remarks published Saturday.

The Department of Investigation of Anomalous Aerial Phenomena, or DIFAA, will bring together sociologists, archaeologists and astronomers, as well as air force personnel, to analyze how often these events occur, where and what times, Vucetich said, according to the official Andina news agency.

DIFAA was first created in 2001, but it had been closed down five years ago due to administrative problems. Similar agencies exist in regional neighbors, including Brazil, Argentina and Chile.

A funny exchange with Alfred Webre in Facebook

Alfred Lambremont Webre III       4:47pm Oct 17

"Hey - just like in the old days - Then you got a federal salary to write disinfo about Cuba; now you get a federal pension to write disinfo about the multidimensional world."

You forgot the video interview BTW

http://www.facebook.com/l/4AQGnY-m6AQG5H-BTACZ50tq77-KKRnsju8BEa2Cr4L35Hg/www.youtube.com/watch?v=MToni1LCwRA

As they say, you are only building karma you will have to work off in future lives, Tomas. In Light

My answer to Alfred

Yes dear Alfred...you know, truth is that the government is so worried about multidimensional world..! There is a cover-up about this, and obviously about the inter-dimensional predatory species. 

Let me tell you what we can do: let's show EVIDENCES about these predatory inter-dimensional species and by the way, I am not at all worried about future lives because there is no such thing. We live once as everybody else. 

Perhaps you have some EVIDENCE about multiple lives? Oh I see, just faith... after all, some individuals are afraid of death. I thought you were not one of such individuals, particularly after your "death of god". 

Please dear Alfred, give my regards to your lovely and intelligent wife. 

 In Twilight James Black AKA Tomas Scolarici

Will the EXO-FANTASISTS give us something bigger than this?

This huge and well written galaxy of memes about the threat of the “inter-dimensional” predators to our planet is important for a couple of reasons: The truculent narrative forces the exo-fantasists to produce new and bigger fictions that, of course, must have some minimal degree of credibility for UFO fans.

However, this is a growing problem, particularly for those who pretend to be “serious “researchers.

That is why rational individuals should share these mythological horrors. In that way we invite the “serious researchers “to create something bigger that this…! Take a look at this funny monstrosity.

Richard Boylan: The show must go on..!

http://galacticconnection.com/dr-richard-boylans-message-regarding-october-24-27-2013-star-nations-coming-out-party/

Richard Boylan, self proclaimed Councilor of Earth (sic) is making one of his announces. All of these have one thing in common: he is always WRONG.
This man who lost his therapeutic license for abuses against female patients ( see the full document here) writes what follows:

"On Oct. 24, UN Day, a Multi-Nations Mothership WILL Hover Below 2000′ Over Cleveland for four days. On the 27th, Star Nations Envoys will come down and walk in Cleveland’s Public Square and greet Humans, before returning home.

Starting this United Nations Day (Oct. 24) and for three more days, a Star Nations Mothership will hover low over Cleveland, OH’s Public Square.
That mothership will be quite large: about 2 miles long (3.2 km) and 8/10 mile wide (1.3 km).
On Sunday Oct. 27, Estican Councillor Xleria and her sister, Variant Altimarian Councillor Isis and her cousin, and Procyon-B Envoy Eve and her husband will get out of the mothership to walk in Cleveland’s Public Square and meet and greet Humans,
As Star Nations Ambassador (Councillor) on Earth, I will be there to receive and officially welcome to Earth the honorable Star Nations envoys."

"Skeleton of Giant" Is a HOAX

http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2007/12/071214-giant-skeleton.html

The National Geographic Society has not discovered ancient giant humans, despite rampant reports and pictures.

The hoax began with a doctored photo and later found a receptive online audience—thanks perhaps to the image's unintended religious connotations.

By 2004 the "discovery" was being blogged and emailed all over the world—"Giant Skeleton Unearthed!"—and it's been enjoying a revival in 2007.

The photo fakery might be obvious to most people. But the tall tale refuses to lie down even five years later, if a continuing flow of emails to National Geographic News are any indication. (The National Geographic Society owns National Geographic News.)

The messages come from around the globe—Portugal, India, El Salvador, Malaysia, Africa, the Dominican Republic, Greece, Egypt, South Africa, Kenya. But they all ask the same question: Is it true?

Perpetuating the Myth

Helping to fuel the story's recent resurgence are a smattering of media outlets that have reported the find as fact.

An often cited March 2007 article in India's Hindu Voice monthly, for example, claimed that a National Geographic Society team, in collaboration with the Indian Army, had dug up a giant human skeleton in India.

"Recent exploration activity in the northern region of India uncovered a skeletal remains of a human of phenomenal size," the report read.

The story went on to say the discovery was made by a "National Geographic Team (India Division) with support from the Indian Army since the area comes under jurisdiction of the Army."

UFO-ET mythology and nervous breakdowns.

In the rarefied ufological subculture, insiders talk about certain nervous breakdowns suffered by self proclaimed experts in extraterrestrial live, cosmic civilizations, cover ups, disclosures and similar fantasies.

In a previous post we described what is called cognitive dissonance.

The internal conflict and eventual breakdown happens when the individual perceives logical contradictions between what he truly believes and what he says. His public discourse becomes self-denial.

Imagine what happens inside the mind of an intelligent, perhaps academic individual who makes a living selling nonsense and fantasies as facts. The big problem here is that he KNOWS this.

Picture the permanent ethical and intellectual crisis of a man or woman who knows that he/she is living in a fantastic world which has little to do with reality. This cruel contradiction isolates the victim not only from society, but sometimes from his own family.

Paradoxically, the insane believes in his fantasies while the dissonant doesn’t. His personal, private convictions are denied when he writes, talks or debate with those who are right, those who confidentially think like him.

 

Our hypothetic dissonant asks for disclosure knowing that there is nothing to disclose. He describes the extraterrestrial visitors knowing that there are no ET visitors, or talks about alien bases in Mars or the Moon, knowing that there are not such bases. His life becomes a conscious, professional lie.

When the cognitive dissonance situation becomes unbearable, our “ET-Paranormal researcher” can go into insanity or into a total cynicism. The positive outcome would be a courageous give up and consequent recognition of what he already knows is the real world.

UFO Industry and Cognitive dissonance.

Is important to recognize the problem of cognitive dissonance, because in the UFO industry we find intelligent individuals whose life must be a permanent contradiction between their convictions and what they write for the public.

Cognitive dissonance is an uncomfortable feeling caused by holding two contradictory ideas simultaneously.

The "ideas" or "cognitions" in question may include attitudes and beliefs, and also the awareness of one's behavior. The theory of cognitive dissonance proposes that people have a motivational drive to reduce dissonance by changing their attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors, or by justifying or rationalizing their attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors.

Dissonance normally occurs when a person perceives a logical inconsistency among his or her cognitions.

Let’s imagine that someone is forced to do or say publicly something they privately really don't want to do, dissonance is created between their cognition (I didn't want to do this) and their behavior (I did it).  Forced compliance occurs when an individual performs an action that is inconsistent with his or her beliefs.

Now, this cognitive dissonance will have also a great impact on the social life of the individual affected.

Most probably she or he will became growingly isolated and loose self-esteem.

If the differences between real and proclaimed convictions grow, the situation will eventually become critical.

It is probable that individuals forced to remain in such a cognitive dissonance will “lose their minds.”

Even Insanity is possible for some border line personalities.

Richard Dolan and "Dark Journalism."

As we all know, the dark cloud of the total crisis is over our heads, and there is nothing mysterious about the character of this situation.  In the post-industrial society, speculative, unproductive capitalism cannot survive. Change or chaos are the two possibilities.

In this toxic social atmosphere, time comes for the mythologists and prophets of doom. The old superstitions and the religious fundamentalism are brought back and gods, devils, archons, angels and similarly nonexistent entities become fashionable in the subcultures.

In the present times, the ufological fantasies blend with the biblical horrors and can be sold in a limited market.

Richard Dolan becomes a “dark journalist”. (This is a very important new definition and should be followed.)

The two thousand years old apocalyptic narrative combines with the imaginary technology of the nonexistent alien spacecrafts.

In the same website where President Obama is called a “terrorist”, Richard Dolan talks about the destruction of civilization. 

Also, these “dark journalists” inform us that churches are vandalized by Satanists, but the big feature is the usual nonsense which as religion, doesn’t require any kind of proof.

Remember dear brain-users that the show must go on.

Comedy and Drama in the UFO Subculture.

One of the impossible dreams of the UFO-ET fantasists is to have some relevance in the big media world, but this is not possible and never will be.

For conspiracy theorists, self proclaimed experts in extraterrestrial civilizations, contactees, professors of Ufology in “online universities” and cosmic alchemists (Sic.), the small world of the so called UFO subculture is their natural element.

This is so, because in this subculture, rational dissidence is not authorized. Exofantasists hate the competence in their own imaginary micro universe, but this is tolerated since each one them must present himself/herself as the only true prophet of the extraterrestrial legend.

However this “friendly fighting” is only possible inside the UFO fans world, but never in the mass media, where any UFO mythologist is easily silenced in minutes for a true scientist, or a rational journalist asking for evidences of the supposed ET presence in our planet and massive cover-up.

That is why fantasists that make a living selling fiction as fact must look for alternative options.

Mythological ufologists know that nothing new will never come from the UFO=ET legend. After some experience they learn that the same old book with new fantasies added cannot be sold again and again, and consequently, they organize carefully their business with lots of pictures and full nonsense.

Some others instead, try to find alternative nonsense for sell, and they go into New Age, Ghost hunting or pseudo-sciences.

Those with fewer scruples even go into hoaxes or into mellifluous pseudo-mystic channeled messages.

Readers should not believe that the professionals of the UFO subculture live in a comfortable world. Hate, envy and denial are the consequences of selling the UFO=ET legend as fact.
