British X-Files Released

Nick Pope worked for the British Ministry of Defense (MoD) for over two decades, three of which were spent directing the UFO program. With the recent release of Britain's classified files on UFO investigations, Pope's X-Files address key misconceptions about the release as well as highlights a few interesting UFO sightings, including those which were reported by police officers, those tracked by radar, and one which nearly resulted in a collision with a commercial aircraft.
Spurred by the French government's disclosure of it's UFO files in 2007, as well as by the need to move away from individual requests for information on UFO reports, the British MoD began in May of 2008 to release their complete UFO caseload to the public. Since the beginning of the publication, thousands of reports spanning from 1978 to 1992 can now be publically accessed via the internet. For the UFO enthusiast, Pope provides specific websites and search words to streamline the hunt for information. New files will be released every six months and there's no doubt that Nick Pope will continue to share his insights.

I want to believe. M'kay?
In no way diminishing the value of hobbies like stampcollecting, trying to exchange one belief-system with another or drooling every time Pamela Anderson is mentioned, I can highly recommend 'conspiracy theory' as an interesting alternative.
Not only do we have an enormous amount of potential suspects: Religion, politicians, masons, Lucifer, the very rich, aliens of all kinds and possibly even those with red hair (I belong to that group, so don't trust me).
We also have conspiracy theories about conspiracy theories, and conspiracy theories about c.t.s about c.t.s.....(you get my meaning), where everybody is accusing everybody else of inaccuracy, based on methodologies such as channelling, regressive hypnosis, lucid dreaming, fringe logic and science, getting carried away in abstractions, half-baked 'research' in history, archeology and mythology or just plain individual overactive imagination.
As I have had app. 150 hours of encounter with some variety of aliens (or whatever), in which I was exposed to heavy mind-control efforts, I can't even say, if I can believe in myself. Without my conscious knowledge the mindcontrol may have succeeded, so I'm now a sleeping agent, just waiting for the signal to kill the local greengrocer, who in reality is from Orion.
I apologize for this eruption, my only excuse is, that I'm european, and thus can't help it. We believe most things can be met by trying to be funny.
On the serious side I find some of the information/disinformation activities suspicious. Some nations have 20-30-000 thousand people spying on the rest of their society, extra-parlamentary semi-military units killing right and left to manipulate and keep secrets, authorities lie to our faces and consider constitutions as very loose recommendations.
The sudden, present 'open-ness' is sometimes explained either as the legendary conspiracy-researcher, disguised as an emptier-of-ashtrays, who sneaks through the enemy lines and gets hold of incriminating evidence, forcing the hands of our masters. Or it could be a sudden moral: "We've seen the error of our ways" catharsis.
It's all confusing, scary and morbidly fascinating. But as it's fashionable not to be gloomy, but present some 'creative' ideas, I believe, that the whole situation best is met at an individual level; as follows:
Some degree of paranoia will eventually emerge in the average conspiracy theorist. Instead of trying to find truth or objective answers, just accept paranoia as a healthy reaction. It's just a psychological mechanism, however unpleasant, and with RAW I'll say: Go through it, not around it, and once you're out on the other side, things will be clearer.
Those who can't go through this 'chapel perilous': Get another hobby.
Thank you for this peek at
Thank you for this peek at your mental and emotional ruminations!
Are we genuinely open without extreme gulibility? If so, I suspect we have much to learn about ourselves as consciousness units.
Rephrasing your suggestion somewhat, I'd offer LOVE your own Paranoia and by not resisting it, find the value in it, yet another experience upon the plane!
Namaste!
