Well I know Norval and FieryIce are stuck in their ways with the whole alien thing anyway, so they are the sorts of comments I expect.
My explaination of "coining" doesn't mean that the words did not exist until someone claimed an abduction, I mearly meant that people tend to use those words in a particular way when they don't have a real answer.
Jocariah,
In your case you can continue to believe that you have "higher aliens" but look at it like this, if they are so much "higher" why would they need to do such experiments?
For thousands of years on this planet there have been racial clashes where one pronounces themselves superior over others, or another suggests that one has a superiority complex. For you to suggest that *your brand* of "alien" is a higher being, is like those racial clashes of old, and I can tell you it that alot of people would be upset at such a speculation.
I know it's suggested that we shouldn't put ourselves on a pedistal and make others below us, but the same goes for them too.
However in this particular case I still think that it's very real men, using very real techniques to manipulate people into believing them to be alien, with the purpose of "disinforming" people so the truth can't be known. It would tie in with the numbers of alien type.
In fact if you were to look into parapsychological fields you would find stories of old ghosts and sea monsters that are supposedly the same thing but the stories are distorted by how people perceive it in different regions and countries.
As for being understood Jocariah, perhaps I see you looking through a smoke and mirror screen telling people what you see in front of you, but I can see behind that screen, and see the stage, actors and puppeteers at work with their job being to create an illusion to you. It doesn't mean I've misunderstood what you see, I just percieve it from a different viewpoint.
