5.24.5
As a child I had a shoe box in which I kept secret
things that I wasn’t really suppose to have. I don’t
remember what all was in there now, but I remember
some things like lipstick, matches and a pocket knife.
During the time I kept this secret box I never
mentioned it to anyone for fear it could get me into
trouble. Now that I am older and have no secret box
it doesn’t mean I don’t still have some secrets. I
think everyone has some secrets that they probably
only share with close friends or family or maybe
secrets they won’t share with anyone at all. There is
no reason the government wouldn’t be the exact same
way.
Why do we keep secrets? Depending on the type of
secret there could be different reasons. It could be
something people feel embarrassed by, something they
have done that they feel makes them look dumb even
though it might have been no big deal or even anything
that could be prevented. It could be something they
are ashamed of like something they did when they were
younger that they would never do now and can’t imagine
why they did it then. It could even just be something
too painful to them personally and they don’t like
talking about it. There are secrets that if revealed
would unwind a long series of lies created to protect
the secret and the secret may not even be as big or
bad as the lies created to protect it. Then there is
the kind of secret people keep to save themselves from
being punished for it. Maybe some little thing like
cheating on taxes or some big thing like murder.
So if aliens and UFO’s exist why does the government
keep this secret? I believe some of the reasons above
apply. There is also a lot of talk that the reason is
that the government feels that letting out this
information would destroy people’s religious beliefs
and basically cause them to go mad in the street. I
don’t buy this because I believe in a God and the fact
that I also believe in aliens does not give me any
conflicts. Where does it say that God only created
one planet with life on it? If we are to believe the
bible then God created beings that live in other
realms such as angels. If you are a scientist or a
artist who creates things do you just stop with just a
couple creations? I don’t believe so. So while
religion could be a small percentage of the reason
they don’t disclose this information I believe it is
only a small one.
The fact that they can’t protect us
from these beings I think would be a bigger one, but
even that I don’t believe is all of it. For the most
part our government works on a “need to know” basis
and this includes everything even small things that
would make no difference to anyone. They let out
information only when they think the publicity would
benefit them in some way. Other than that they are
completely happy with us not knowing what they are
doing. Admitting to a alien presence would not
benefit them in any way I can think of. It would only
unravel a long series of lies that they would have to
explain, it would cause some panic if they admitted
they can’t protect us and it would also expose the
fact that they have technologies that would destroy
their oil based economy if they were to divulge the
secrets of these technologies.
I do not believe the Disclosure Project will ever
accomplish what it has set out to do and if the
Government does ever decide to let out this type of
information it will be based purely on the Government
deciding that there is some advantage in doing so.
That being said I do not consider the Disclosure
Project to be a completely useless organization. Any
organization whether it is concerned with aliens, gulf
war disease, global warming or anything else that lets
the government know that we do not blindly believe
everything we are told is in it’s essence is a good
thing especially in this time of extreme patriotism
and nationalism. My belief is that extremes of
patriotism to the point of not questioning anything is
at it’s core anti-American. The duty of the people
since the founding of this country has always been to
keep watch of the Government so that it does not
become totally corrupt. Some may say it is already
totally corrupt, but this does not negate the duty of
keeping watch and trying to change things for the
better.
One final thought. Do we really want full
disclosure? If the Government came out tomorrow and
admitted everything and put all relevant documents on
the internet for all to see would we feel better?
Wouldn’t it take away the mystery that makes
discussions on this topic fun? We would all have to
find new mysteries and conspiracies to entertain us
and I am sure we would, but lets face it we really
don’t want all the mysteries solved they are one of
the things that make us think and keep us entertained
- especially those of us who listen to Coast to Coast.
