Keep this thread running and post a "June [ ], no UFOs :rolleyes:" every day until the 15th.

But I want there to be UFOs!

A site against him..

To take that a step further, they aren't even transliterations. Ancient Hebrew had no vowels and there has been no oral passage of the God's name because it was against the laws of ancient Israel to speak the name of God (as mentioned in the Torah). Infact, only the high priest could say his name, and only once per year on The Day of Atonement.

Since Ancient Hebrew had no vowels (the letters, phonetically, in the actual Torah spell "YHWH" or "JHWH") scholars/rabbis have pretty much merely taken shots at what his name could really be.

June 4th. No UFOs.

Well it WAS supposed to be somewhere between June 1st and July 15th.

...Honestly, I'd welcome an alien race, provided they were peaceful. His prophecy was good up till the "eternal kingdom on earth"...which of course could just mean a slap in the face so we stop blowing each other to big-****-bits. Or it could be more like a slave thing, which would really ****ing suck. However any alien race that has been observing us for this long (lets assume the theory of close inspection of the race, studying, gradually increasing UFO contact, etc is true) would know about our destructive nature. There's of course the possibility that they have fancy Asgard weapons ala Stargate SG-1, but statistically it's not too likely, especially since they probably wouldn't be interested much in us if they were so advanced and us so primitive (unless of course we are the first race they have met, and the galaxy is on the empty side)

....Anyways, the point I'm trying to make is, that any race studying us would know our destructive nature, and trying to enslave us would be suicide unless they were so advanced that all our weapons and tactics, combined, could not put up a fight. While this is possible, it's probably more likely they are peacful. If they wanted to enslave us, they would have done it already. The theory of slowly increasing UFO sightings, contact, etc, is to make first contact LESS of a suprise so we don't irrationally blow them out of the sky out of fear.

That said, the eternal kingdom bit I, hopefully, interpret as putting an end to war. Which wouldn't be hard to do...once you realize you're not alone, wars become so insignificant. Sounding an awful lot like Star Trek? Yeah, well it's probably true.

I've always been skeptic of UFOs and alien stuff, but it does intrigue me, and I do hope it's real. I hope that within my lifetime we make contact with intelligent extraterrestrial life...perhaps next month it'll be true. Perhaps not. Perhaps just another nutjob. But honestly, if you're refusing the idea of an intelligent, peaceful alien race that could help expose us to the universe, meet other life and civilizations (if there is any), share a whole nother world of culture and technology...if you can refuse that...uh, in the words of Lewis Black...kill yourself.

After reading the anti-Yahweh web page, I have to say, it's probably another nutball. Damn. But I have to say...how the hell does he plan to have a UFO above Las Vegas for two days? That's not easy to pull off with weather balloons. Most likely another greedy hoaxing ******, but I'm always hopeful...

Though it does make sense for aliens to visit Las Vegas. For one, it's just so cool! It's a huge glowing beacon from space! That, and Nellis Airforce Base is nearby...

...

...the Nellis part is mostly why it makes sense.

That site isn't very well presented. They did very little research. What the site doesn't mention is that the BBB was done "working with staff and volunteer mentors (professionals and students from Harvard, MIT, and Wellesley)" in 97'. I don't think he was ever apart of any of those schools. I have e-mailed the owner of the BBB site and have asked for the name of the Instructor in the photos. I'll post her reply when I get it.

I think the biggest thing against the site that's against him is the misquoted press release statement. Kind of hard to take a site seriously that can't even give the true facts...

Perhaps, but I just finished watching some of the videos I downloaded overnight (56k for the summer)...the guy is full of crap, it's so obvious. "Oh Yahweh show us you're the creator of all things" blah blah. Then a weather balloon appears. Sometimes TWO weather balloons coupled together!

It would be a little more convincing if they weren't the exact size and color of weather balloons, and didn't just dissapear (READ: THEY POP AS THEY RISE INTO THE ATMOSPHERE) when going back into space.

I am interested, though, how he plans to have a UFO be above Las Vegas for two days. A weather balloon on a teather? Bahaha...I will laugh so hard if a kid with a BB gun shoots it down.

I don't know what's more sad. Him, or the people who take him seriously?

He's an instrument of the United States government designed to conceal the existence of extraterrestrial life by making anyone who may have any evidence of alien existence appear foolish and be disregarded.

OMQ! CONSPIRACY!

CALL MEL GIBSON!

I believe.

The Passion of the YHWH ^

If you had this wierd hoax-skill for supposedly twenty years, why would you kill any chance of having people believe you by claiming something impossible was going to happen?

If something was floating over the city for two days people would zoom in on it, and maybe fly out to it or shoot it down or something...

The thing about the eternal kingdom is mentioned in the book of Revelation, but in absolutely no way like this guy claims.

It'd be no suprise that aliens would come to Vegas. The Luxor (Big pyramid casino) has a super huge beacon light thing on it that shoots a giant beam of light straight into the sky. I've always thought that would cause aliens to come here, and I guess I was right.

I'll post pics when they show up...

If you look into the real scientific research by skeptic but open minded scientists, you'll find some really interesting stuff. Especially goverment coverups...there are ridiculous numbers of coincidences. Hey, a UFO crashed, and the Army came and took all the evidence away! Whoops, now all the witnesses are missing...um...WEATHER BALLON, SWAMP GAS! A scientist about to release a major UFO breakthrough suddenly dies of emphysyma. Bull-f*****g-s**t.

UFO's maybe have come to earth before, but this guy is obviously a scammer. As for what he is going to do with the UFO floatin over vegas, peopple are going to realize he is a hoax by then but he will be laughin all the way to the bank.

OR... He could be right, and it happens.

No he could not be "right". It's quite plainly a hoax, and anyone who doesnt see that is completely daft.

Raoul Duke, I agree. I was just saying.

Oh, and Temperamental, I'm somehow hoping he's right. It's obvious he's got more crap spewing from his mouth than what's in his toilet after eating a case of prunes, but there are cases when jackasses turn out to be right at the same time.

Perhaps we'll just have a lucky coincidence.

I've not read this thread... but the whole situation reminds me of a song by the Pixies.

I believe until PROVEN not-true.

Do you believe that the universe is actually in a playtoy for a gaint, invisible baby named Fred, who rules the galaxies with his third eye and uses his telepathic powers to make us think we are alone and unwatched?

June 5th. No UFOs.

Of course not, that's just ridiculous! The baby's name is Jesus!

Anything's possible.

except impossible things...
like nerds pro-creating with supermodels

I think the probability of visitation by aliens is remote, as the nearest star is 4.3 light years away. Assuming that there are even any hospitable planets revolving around it and the creatures are traveling at the speed of light (unlikely), it would take them at 4.3 years to get here.

So...yeah.

Stop calling alien spaceships "UFOs"! That's worse than saying "could care less"!

UFO = unidentified flying object. If a flying object is unidentified, it is a UFO. This doesn't mean it's a space ship. It just means you don't know what it is.
If you're assuming, even hypothetically, that it's an alien spaceship, you don't call it a UFO.

From this moment on, alien spaceships are to be called "flirbnics"

Um...well... I guess that's acceptable.

"One must not be so open minded as to let ones brain fall out"

I think you are far, far past that point. But hey, if anti-logic is your thing then be my guest.

A closed mind is like a closed book; just a block of wood.

Thank god there is a happy medium.

So, if I (or anyone else) asked you that question on the street, you would just say, "Yes. I believe."

No, I wouldn't jump to conclusions and believe and go "OMFG YEAH THATS TRUE ALIENS EXIST!!!". I'd say "Hm, that's interesting. Let's get the full story, and even wait until the day goes by where he says they are going to show up, and they don't, before we call him a moron. Yes, his claims are far fetched and most likely aren't true, but that is never 100% certain, as is with most things on any subject. So let's wait and see."

Still no aliens. Still June 5th.

Actually...

The day has already gone by. He said they were supposed to START on june 1st and end july 15th (not happen between those dates) so I think it's safe to say this guy is just a hoaxer.

Then i misheard it, I heard he said it would appear ON the 15th.

You're ignoring warp propulsion, wormholes, alternate dimensions and the myriad of other newfangled physics theories on interstellar travel. Warp and wormholes have been around a long time and are quite possible.
