I have no problem with the term UFO. I've seen them. But I very serious doubt they flying saucers but rather simply an object moving in the sky that I cannot identify.

I think it's a very fitting term - they are objects that are flying, and we don't know what they are! I guess they're dealing with the stigma, and the fact that, in the past, military pilots would be reprimanded for saying anything about them over the radio, or they would suddenly get changes in assignments.

I remember one conversation back in the Project Blue Book days where the recording has the pilot radioing in an unidentified object pacing him, and flight control asked "are you declaring you are seeing a UFO".... there was a pause, then the pilot said "negative". A number of recordings like that.

well at first people were talking about flying saucers and discs, then the military wanted to make it sound more obscure and official so they came up with "unidentified flying objects/UFO"

I guess now that UFO has become the popular term they want to use something different again.


I don't think the term "bogey" has been adopted by the UFO crowd that much yet.

Hmm... if it looks and acts like a drone, maybe it's just a drone!

Considering how everybody and their brother has a camera in their cell phone one would think we'd seen some clear images or video of something by now. I mean images of tornadoes were relatively rare decades ago but now they're everywhere yet we still only get a handful of of "flying saucers" and the quality of them usually sucks.

I heard the original "ufos" were some secret military thingy.

Cell phone cameras (at least the ones I've experienced) aren't so good at taking clear images of small light objects in dark skies.

Some of them, no doubt, were.... and many of the "UFO" sightings have been un-unidentified as that.

I believe that any lights in the sky that are unidentifiable are simply angelic or demonic beings.

Perhaps waging warfare in the upper and lower atmospheres.

Daniel 10:13-20

Or angels merely going about the business of God.

Because I don't believe there is life anywhere else in the universe.

[Christianbookworm]

I thought those being were usually invisible?

uh no silly. Our computers and cell phones are all made with alien technology from the Roswell crash and they automagically filter out any images of UFOs or aliens. Duh.

I wasn't going to divulge that.
