(8,387 posts)You see, if a time machine is ever invented, we'd know about it since the future folks would be visiting and trying hard not to be seen or figured out.
Now, sure, there are people who will tell you that time travel is impossible, but they used to say the same thing about having a candy that melts in your mouth and not in your hands. So, you know those people are always wrong.
But, I have realized now that the UFO phenomenon is so big that the time travelers from the future probably would have figured out that they'd already screwed up and would have corrected for inadvertently being mistaken for UFO's. They could do that because they would have the historical record of all of the UFO sightings.
So, realizing that the time travel thing wasn't work, and because I am a skeptical person who uses critical thinking and observation-based reasoning, it is pretty fucking obvious that people are just seeing ghosts - just like people always have.
However, I did cheat a little bit because the confirmation came when I saw one and he told me he was a ghost.
So, case closed on UFO's.
