Have you ever been abducted by aliens?

I delivered ice cream to the secret UFO and Alien Abduction Conference held at MIT in 1992. No joke.
 
There's nothing aliens could possibly gain by abducting us that they couldn't get by observing us from afar. If they can even get here at all, surely they could scan the entire planet without touching anything on it.

Or they could get all the medical and scientific data they need by tapping into the internet.

If they want data on our chemical makeup? Internet.

They want data on our psychology or our culture? Internet.

Want to experiment with our genetics? Wait for us to finish mapping it, grab the data and synthesize some.

The point is: yes, most anything that an advanced intelligent civilization wants from us, they can get at a distance. There's no need for them to park a spaceship outside someone's house or car and pluck them up. They just need patience and the ability to tap our satellites.
 
If aliens are intelligent enough to master space travel the same way we have mastered car travel, then why would they come to earth, the universe is a big place, why would they not find a more advanced alien race to help them, they got space travel that allows them to pop from solar system to solar system, or even galaxy to galaxy, so why are they coming to earth only at night to probe people for a few hours then pop off again before morning.

No i personally think these are all simply dreams and delusions that some people feel are true, then throw into the mix those who make money from it all......quite a big business this UFO and ghost stuff.

But let me just add that these are my own views on the matter, if you believe then more power to you.;)

We humans were intelligent enough to build ships that conquered the seas. And what did we do? Visit primitive natives.

That is a very good point. And not only did we visit them, we interfered in their affairs, tried to make their cultures more similar to our own, and even interbreed with them.

This sounds familiar with some of the allegations made towards extra-terrestrials. Like I said, we could be caught up in the middle of a cold war, with at least two factions fighting for the fate of Earth, it's resources, and us. Hopefully, at least one side is a lot more civilized than the European colonists of the past, otherwise our civilization might not have very long. The fact that we have been able to maintain our governments so far, as opposed to being conquered or wiped out (which they most certainly could do) tells me that at least one side is fighting for our sake, or they just aren't ready to do us in, because they need us for some reason.

It's out there stuff and the kind of thing that can't be disproved (well, alright, nothing can be disproved I suppose) and I'm often a little more skeptical when it comes to lengthy details like this given by abductees; it makes me think that, whatever the truth of their encounter, they've filled in the blanks themselves, whether consciously or not.

One thing that is definitely interesting though is actual physical implants and stuff, because that's pretty much physical proof. If one reads around a bit, you hear of things like this being studied and having some unusual make-up that can't be explained. You'd think they'd be treated with more interest than they are. Assuming it's not all lies of course.
Nope... can't say that I have.

I have definitely experienced sleep paralysis, which is scary when it happens, but I knew what it was straight away and just drifted off back to sleep.

I did have something odd happen to me one night that I've never been able to explain. It involved a bed with another person in it. Said person got up to use the washroom, closed the door and left me in the dark. My blanket was pulled off me. Saw a black shadowy figure floating above me, and heard what sounded like a... err... some sort of vibrating device, very loud and in my face. Couldn't move for about 10 seconds. Lights came back on and it disappeared. I looked it up and others have experienced the weird vibrating noise, etc... ah. It was just creepy. I wasn't asleep so I'm hoping it was real and I'm not insane.xD This was several years ago now... it never happened again.
That's interesting. Any more details about what the black shadowy figure looked like?

I am starting to suspect that this evidence is being ignored on purpose by those who could give it the validity it needs, either because their training involves ignoring such things that seem too unbelievable to be true, or someone is telling them not to get involved.

As for the shadowy figure, I suspect is might have been a ghost. There isn't anything to suggest extra-terrestrial involvement, such as missing time.

That said, this experience sounds like it was terrifying! I don't think I could have gone back asleep, or even stayed in the house if that happened to me. I'm certain that having someone else's company at the same time must have brought some comfort to the situation, because otherwise, if it were me, I might find a little glitch in the brain a little more preferable, to possibly living in a haunted house!

It is quite possible that they want to solve this problem of theirs as soon as possible. And there are allegations and theories that they have been visiting us for thousands of years, long before we started to map out our genetics, and they could have had the same problem even back then. So, because we weren't competent enough to provide any cooperation, they began a program, one that apparently is generations old.

This brings us to the Sumerian legend that human beings were created by higher beings in their image, to mine gold that they apparently needed, but the workers grew weary of the work themselves. Some of you probably already know of the legend of the Annunaki. It appears after our early ancestors mined enough gold for them, whoever allegedly created us were kind enough to let us go free to create a society of our own. But then there are hypothesis that they have stuck around to control the development of us as a race. This could be why they are abducting people, and why they are using them to create hybrids.

And it is impossible to influence our genetic make-up, or for them to create hybrids from a distance. I think that in their view, they are creating a new generation of beings, one that they feel is an improvement over the current Homo Sapien.

The Blackout over SOPA and PIPA sent them into a panic.

Drunken late-night booty-call. :techman:
 
Since my wife is from Australia, she is an alien. Does it count when as being abducted by aliens if she drags me somewhere I don't want to go? And when we're in Australia, can she say that she abducts aliens when she wants to take me somewhere?

More seriously, I haven't been abducted and don't know anyone who has. Most of the people I've seen on TV who've made the claim seem to me to be slightly less than entirely trustworthy. But while I discount the possibility that aliens would travel light-years to dissect cows and redneck lower intestines, I'm not totally convinced that its impossible for aliens to be here and observing us. While I would find it to unlikely in the extreme, I could see aliens acting like those scientists in TNG who observe aliens like modern day wildlife studying scientists.

Is there a proper term for someone who goes out into the prairie and studies the critters there?
