Disclosure

 

 

"Truthfully, I don't know what they are. I just know they are something."

This is going to be a tough one to write this morning. I have been wrestling with doing this since last fall. However, today is the day. Before you call the "funny farm", or think I might have taken a long walk off a short pier, please hear me out.

Many countries around the world are beginning the process of disclosure. In other words, they are opening up, and declassifying records and files that have to do with UFOs. Many think that the United States might soon join the disclosure. I am not so sure they will.

Most people in this country have seen "something", know someone who has, or heard of someone who has. My son-in-law and I saw "something" about five years ago; my sister, her husband and neighbors saw a "something' glide over their lake in Brainerd, chased by two helicopters, about 20 years ago; I have talked to two or three other credible people who have had "something" type experiences.

For two weeks in July of 1952, our nation's capital was inundated with numerous UFO sightings. Not seen by a few, but by thousands in the DC area. They were tracked on radar, visible from the ground, and seen by some of the Air Force jets who chased them. They flew at unheard of speeds and made impossible maneuvers. There is still film of them (in formation) over the nation's capital building. It is available on Google or You Tube. The event is fully documented. To this day, this still remains a mystery.

In March of 1997, we had the famous "Phoenix Lights" event. It was witnessed by thousands across the state of Arizona, including Governor Fife Symington. The government said the lights were just flares dropped in a training exercise by A-10 Warthogs. People on the ground however, tell a different story. "Something", as big as an aircraft carrier, glided over part of the city of Phoenix. It made no sound, and when it passed overhead, it blocked out the stars. What was it? Still a mystery.

It seems like more and more credible people are coming forward with stories of "something". Radar operators from civilian life and the service have tracked things on functioning radars going at speeds up to Mach 20. Airline pilots have reported being followed or have had to dodge a "something". Some say that over 15 million American's have seen "something" unexplainable. Others say the number is much higher than that - worldwide it is estimated to be over 100 million.

Some think the reason our government is not disclosing the truth about UFOs is it will turn our society upside down. Others think it will destroy the world's religions. When I worked at Control Data, I worked with a lady who was a Nuclear Physicist. She was a highly educated woman as well as a person of deep faith. She knew in her heart we were not alone in the universe. She also knew that God was in control. In her mind, there was no dissonance with us sharing the cosmos and still knowing that God created everything. None what-so-ever. I happen to share that viewpoint.

So what are these things that more and more people keep seeing? I don't have the answer. I don't believe they are all mass hallucinations, swamp gas, weather balloons, or Venus - although I do believe many are totally explainable. I do know this much - many are "something" unexplained. I believe our government knows much more than they are letting on to. All I want is the truth. I, along with most of us, can handle the truth. Is the truth out there? I believe it is. I also believe it is in Washington, just waiting to be disclosed.
