Another view of alien encounters - the numbers and the purpose of alien abduction

I just got done reading an article in the Seattle Exopolitics Examiner indicating that there were up to a billion abductees in our present-day population. The title of the article, Up to 1 billion humans are abducted by hyperdimensional ETs, and humans are in cognitive dissonance, says it all. The author of the article is Alfred Lambremont Webre, one of the wheels in the Exopolitics community - those concerned with human-Visitor political relations(?).

In the article, Webre cites a recent interview with Joe Montaldo, the head of ICAR (International Community for Alien Research), in which he talks about new research indicating many more extraordinary encounters than previously believed. This contrasts with the 2002 Roper poll of unexplained experiences, which states that about 1.4% of Americans (about 2.9 Million) have met all five of the experiential criteria to be considered an experiencer [my paraphrase, CL]. However, Joe Montaldo says his research indicates that about 14% of the population has had abduction experiences.

I am not yet familiar with his research methodology, so I can't make any claims about his results. In my view, we have to reserve judgement on his results until we know more. Still, he claims that the data comes from abductees, themselves. However, we do not yet know how this information was obtained, how it was compiled, what the sampling criteria were, etc. Thus, for the moment, I have to take his numbers with a grain of salt.

In my article, The Logistics of UFO Abduction, I apply some mathematical tests to the idea of nuts and bolts alien abduction. I plug in some numbers from various researchers and conclude that if a physical abduction phenomenon is going on, it must be on the scale of the Allied war effort during World War II. Thus, a Visitor civilization must put a very high priority on the success of such a program. However, it also means that the skies of our planet must be chock full of UFOs at any moment, more UFOs than we apparently see. Thus, I call this the "Air Traffic Cotrol Problem."

In my article, I state that several possible resolutions to this paradox exist:

1. Each abductee has far fewer experiences than Dr. Jacobs claims.
   
2. The number of abductees is far less than the assumed two percent.


3. UFOs are able escape detection except on very rare occasions. This would imply that they had some visual and radar evasion technology, not an unreasonable supposition given our present stealth technology.


4. A large fraction of abductions are nonphysical, thus not requiring a physical UFO visit. This would argue (at least in part) against a physical nuts-and-bolts nature of UFO abduction, and would imply that it is in some way less material.

Item 4 (and possibly 3) appear to be compatible with Joe Montaldo's findings. If his results are borne out, then the first two possibilities are negated and the air traffic control problem is far worse than I had earlier imagined. In this case, it would strongly favor a metaphysical (paranormal, hyperdimensional, etc.) model inherent in item 4.

The article goes on to state that the agents behind abduction are primarily Reptilian and Gray aliens. These, he says, are advancing a negative agenda. Indeed, he states that if there is not some sort of intervention, a holocaust-level catastrophe will occur, wiping out the majority of humanity. He states that this information is synthesized from about 20 to 50 recurring abductees, and was derived by directly asking the aliens what their purpose and intentions are.

Budd Hopkins has stated on more than one occasion that "aliens lie." In my own hypnotic work with abductees, I have also heard many things that the aliens have supposedly said. But rather than consistently describing a coherent agenda (positive or negative), the results are very inconsistent, and sometimes pure nonsense. They have made several predictions to me, which have not come true. Thus, I wonder - can we really believe what we hear by "asking the aliens?"

Again, I would need to learn much more about Joe Montaldo's methodology before I could concur or disagree with his results. His results and mine are quite different. Mine seem to suggest a considerably less coherent alien nature and agenda, though his sample size appears to be considerably larger.

Just as David Jacobs states in his book, The Threat, Joe Montaldo's research suggests a massive, negative alien agenda. Furthermore, he suggests that the human population (even UFO researchers) are in denial of the danger humanity faces. While Jacobs favors a nuts-and-bolts nature of alien presence, Montaldo says that they are more interdimensional or metaphysical in nature. For all I know, either or both could be right. However, given the agenda that both Jaobs and Montaldo describe, I truly hope they are both wrong.

Until I can examine his study findings more thoroughly, I will simply have to concur that Joe Montaldo has provided another important hypothesis of alien encounters. With it, he offers a different numbers and a different conclusion on the alien agenda from most researchers. He brings us a new and fascinating perspective, another piece in the ever-deepening mystery that is the UFO encounter phenomenon. And once again I state that I truly hope he's wrong...
