It wouldn't do squat. Belief is only faith.
This applies to everything in the world, not just religion. Politics is the major one, faith in the system, faith in the media to properly inform you, and faith in the leaders themselves. What happens when you find out they are lying to your face. Bush is the prime example, but he of course is just the front man. He pisses on our face and tells us it's raining. The more trusting people collect his piss for drinking water, and gobble it up. Truth is hard to come by these days, in the days of deception.
Bacca,I have done reasearch into this myself. Personaly it's does not affect my beliefs at all, I expect it. All of the beings cataloged by our government when retriving crashed UFO's have all been humanoid, meaning bi-pedal, with two eyes, and two arms. You would think if the theory of evolution was valid that life would evolve into different forms specific to the planet type, but that's not the case, at least yet. The more I search, the more I find out what I thought I knew before, is not even close. It's truly a strange world we live in. Here is a trascript from the press conference on UFO's back in 2001. You can watch the whole two hours here, other wise just read what I typed. (it's not in sentence form, as he was speaking, and I did my best in a short time)
http://www.netro.ca/disclosure/npccmenu.htmSgt Clifford Stone Army: "I had a secret clearance with nuclear assority I could get the clearance I needed to do whatever it was that was necessary for me to do at the time in special operations when I was called in on those, what I'm refereing to here is that I was involved in---
we actually did recoveries of crashed saucers for lack of better term degrees there of, there were bodies that were involved in these crashes also some were alive while we were doing all this, we were telling the American public there was nothing to it, and we were telling the world there was nothing to it. We have sat back and told the American public there are no such things as UFOs I've been involved where we have recovered these objects, we know of them to be of extraterrestrials, in 1969, I had an event that happened to me while I was stationed at Fort Lee Virgina, we went to Indian town Gap Pennsylvania, that would be my first exposure to anytime that we would be recovering an unidentified flying object, we were a back up team which was supposed to be MBC because there was supposed to be some nuclear materials on board this craft. Later on most people involved were to be told that there was nothing on board it, it was nothing more then just a crash of one of our aircraft, I know better, because I was one of the people that approached it with a geiger counter to get surface readings.
I was the first person to see that there was bodies on it. I know we are not alone in the universe. I know that the absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. It's evidence that has been denied to the American people."Q/A session afterwards:
"
When I got out in 1989, we had cataloged 57 different species. You have individuals that look much like you and myself that could walk among us and you wouldn't even notice the difference. Except for some of the things that uh, they might be able to go ahead in a dark room and touch and object and identify what color that object might be. They would have a heightened sense of smell, sight, hearing. The situation is that you have various types of what we normally call greys, we didn't call them greys in the military, but you had at least three types of the greys. You had some that were much taller then we were
the unique thing that I would like to point out is that for the most part is that the entities that we did catalog were in fact humanoid. Now this in fact created a situation with the scientific community was trying to figure out why that would be the case because you would expect that if life evolved on other planets that they would take on some type of other being so to speak not necessarily look humanoid or be bipedal such as we are but apparently we have quite a few of the species out there that are humanoid in appearance. And that creates a question that yet has to be answered by science."QUOTE
About Clifford Stone:
Clifford Stone is unique among those experiencing and investigating UFO and ET phenomenon. He spent 22 years in the US Army as a part of an extremely elite and secret group that was rapidly dispatched to crash sites in order to recover UFO or ET craft, bodies, and artifacts. Since his retirement from the Army, he has devoted his time to a diligent Freedom of Information Act search of government archives. He maintains that we have knowledge that intelligent life is visiting this planet in craft capable of traveling distances of many light years very quickly; effectively bypassing acceptably known physics. Further, he stresses that our recovery of these ET craft and artifacts have allowed our government to make staggering scientific gains of great potential benefit to the world. He maintains, as do many others, that this information is held in deeply secret programs beyond Constitutional controls and safeguards, and that despite the end of the cold war, those controlling these 'black projects' have continued to keep these important discoveries to themselves and for motives known only to them.
Sgt. Stone is coming forward with his story to encourage citizens and our elected officials to open investigations and end this Constitutional bypass by a powerful and covert organization operating under our noses and in our skies.
Clifford Stone was born in Portsmouth, Ohio. At an early age, he has memories of being contacted by ETs and that contact continues today. At age eight, he was befriended by an Air Force captain and that relationship continued through his early adult life. During the VietNam war, he felt an obligation to enlist in the Air Force but was rejected due to a skin affliction and classified 4F. He was advised by his friend, the captain, to try the Army and after a 'lenient' medical examination, he was allowed into the Army as a clerk typist, a job he never had to fulfill.
Within weeks, he found himself picked up in a staff car on the pretense of seeing a low ranking friend with a job at the Pentagon. On arrival, his friend's clearances allowed them into levels beneath the Pentagon, onto a tram, and soon he found himself thrust into a room and circumstances beyond imagination. His career was never normal, and for a newly minted soldier, he was suddenly thrust into the USA's deepest secrets: ETs are real and we are successfully recovering many of their craft intact as well as hundreds of ET artifacts worldwide. Further, we are familiar with much of their technologies and have in fact, back engineered some of the ET gear. After 22 years of being on the scene with ET craft and dead, wounded, and living ETs, Sgt. Stone is highly qualified as an expert in ET tech, black ops organizations/procedures, and the potentiality of ET contact to mankind.
Stone maintains that this secrecy is unconstitutional and beyond control and knowledge of our elected officials. Thereby, this represents a government hidden within our society with tremendous assets, funding, and knowledge.
This illegal government is operating without oversight, control, and the consent of the Executive, or Legislative branches.
Further, he feels this secrecy has split large parts of the citizenry into those that have seen UFO or ET craft/beings and those that place these observers in a category as something less than competent. Much of the malaise and mistrust of government can be attributed to a remarkable majority of its citizenry seeing or believing in these objects while the government and its officials and representatives deny or lack the courage to disclose what is now obvious. Also, the considerable scientific skills and assets of the world are for the most part, diverted by this bias from working on projects generations ahead of current understanding. This continues to allow important discoveries and advances within the control of the few.
Mr. Stone is bravely, and with resistance from covert quarters, coming forward with his story to do the following. He urges those in the know to admit that UFOs seen by millions worldwide are both ET and our own 'back engineered' ET-style craft. Release the abundant information and materials that show intelligent life is visiting our planet and has been monitored by numerous governments for decades. Provide the information that will allow our Constitutional government take back control of these deeply compartmented programs and restore confidence and trust in our system of government and military organizations. And at last, urge our government to finally entrust its citizens and the world with the truth about ET existence and technologies. With this information we can begin to formulate our place and relationship to other intelligent life in the cosmos. Sgt. Stone is a person that can provide the extraordinary evidence required for such extraordinary claims and provoke others to demand that the inheritance of mankind be reported to the all.
