Maybe. Multiple things can be true and false at same time. Too many people forget that. You can lie, exaggerate, even stretch it but still be telling the truth and profit. Lazar isn't at the top of my credibility list. There are far better examples. Karl Nell is one.Follow the money. He's one of a group that collects income from paid interviews, paid TV/media programs, books, and UFO enthusiasts lecture tours.
I know coffee cups are real because I have one sitting in front of me right now. I can pick it up. I can handle it. I can break it. Not a fuzzy picture of something that someone is telling me is a coffee cup. Not someone claiming coffee cups exist while not actually handing me a coffee cup. I can actually grasp it.
I seen it! I seen it! doesn't work.

Everything presented by the it's aliens folks are not substantiated with solid evidence. Just fuzzy pictures, fuzzy video, and people swear it's true.
LOL true. It's just interesting to me. Don't care one way or the other. I get tired of talking about the same dismal topics. Do we know yet if capitalism is the best economic system?These theorists get so down in their rabbit holes of theory that they lose sight that they are ignoring that I am experiencing something. I exist. Math explains things, but Math is not what I am.
Uh oh! That could lead to politics and we can't do that here.LOL true. It's just interesting to me. Don't care one way or the other. I get tired of talking about the same dismal topics. Do we know yet if capitalism is the best economic system?
So, what if you had someone who had also promoted to O-6, had led broader change across their service than Colonel Nell, a person who managed projects totaling hundreds of millions, who, unlike Colonel Nell, had multiple command tours, and a degree in Astrophysics, not just EE.Maybe.

Is he telling me what I want to hear?So, what if you had someone who had also promoted to O-6, had led broader change across their service than Colonel Nell, a person who managed projects totaling hundreds of millions, who, unlike Colonel Nell, had multiple command tours, and a degree in Astrophysics, not just EE.
Would that person have equal credibility in your eyes?
Even if that person wasn’t the attention-seeking braggart that Karl Nell appears to be on his LinkedIn page?
I base my judgement on several things not one thing per se. In general, I would hold physicists/scientists in the highest regard, or pilots like yourself, Cujet and Commander David Fravor (famous Tic Tac incident). It really depends on the overall quality of the person.So, what if you had someone who had also promoted to O-6, had led broader change across their service than Colonel Nell, a person who managed projects totaling hundreds of millions, who, unlike Colonel Nell, had multiple command tours, and a degree in Astrophysics, not just EE.

I find the whole Reality vs Illusion topic to be an exercise in silliness.LOL true. It's just interesting to me. Don't care one way or the other. I get tired of talking about the same dismal topics. Do we know yet if capitalism is the best economic system?
Well, noMaybe. Multiple things can be true and false at same time...
A person can lie but also be telling the truth. One can embellish or exaggerate, while also be telling the truth. Ever know someone that exaggerated a lot, but ultimately was telling the truth?Well, no
In Logic, according to the Law of the Excluded Middle, something is either True or False and there is no middle maybe.
I agree! I also enjoy these discussions, a lot of bright minds here, but not bright enough to prove anything to me, no insult intended. As I said earlier, I have never read or heard logical or otherwise how we got here. Lots of scientific data and theories, but to me there seems to be voids leaving a lot to the imagination. The Big Bang created the earth from what, and what created the what? Inquiring minds want to know."I'm smart enough to know that I'm dumb" - Richard Feynman.
The skeptics/physicists are technically correct. Distances are just too far. I'm aware of that. I'm still of the mindset thought that there is something more to this but until then.....
So, you're saying scientists should stop studying the nature of reality? Of course it's a scientific and philosophical topic. What else would it be?I find the whole Reality vs Illusion topic to be an exercise in silliness.
It is certainly not a scientific topic and not even a philosophical topic.
If you don't believe in a reality when the evidence of reality is right in front of you, then don't drive, don't go to a doctor, don't use currency to purchase items, etc., etc., because none of these things are real.
Illusionists should stay in their little box of nonreality and pontificate to their cultist followers.
I don't exist until you see me.
