We Are Not Alone: Mom, Dad, ET and Me: or, How I Grew Up To Be a Person Who Thinks Extraterrestrial Contact Matters

One of the personal peculiarities that drew my parents together was a shared love for chasing UFOs. This was the early Sixties, before the New Age had twisted the sport into an expensive tourist attraction. In their day, it took guts. There was no cruise director holding your hand, no air-conditioned tour bus to protect you from the blistering desert sun, no security guard to warn you when you were getting too close…

A squeal of tires as the open convertible veers from the pavement. A grinding moan as the engine adjusts to the floored accelerator. The steady clatter of rocks pelting the undercarriage, zinging up into the air as the car rockets across the open sand.

“Get a picture! Quick! Before it moves!”…

Let’s see how one web-sites reader’s respond:

Abolish government schools. Let parents decide whether their kids are subjected to this tripe.

Christians, look at what a couple of the pornography apologists in this thread have said already. Not only is there no acknowledgement whatsoever that parents may have legitimate complaints here, they’re *advocating* the disputed material. What would compromise look like to these people?

the time has come for serious Christians to mount a full bore effort to do away with American public schools, which by any standard, including the appropriateness of literature, has become a bureaucratic albatross with a lack of rigorous curriculum and at best mediocre students.

Let the gay advocates fund their own private schools, and the Christians theirs. Basically, as it now is the American schools are infested with teachers like Scroop Moth who are consciously involved in polluting young minds with hard-edged liberal secularism.

this is akin to sexual exploitation of CHILDREN, yes, CHILDREN (even in High School). I’ve had it with the overstimulation and sexualization of kids. This is not “cultural enlightenment” but, rather, cultural debasement of our young people at a time when they need anything BUT.

This is more of the same: disturbing and disgusting indoctrination.

And, Harrison, while I agree with the net-thrust of your point, I still believe it is important NEVER to concede ground on of safe and normal heterosexual behavior. Yes, it is unpopular. Yes, it makes me (to the popular culture)a “bigot” but, really, we cannot forget the design in human kind which is wholesale being discarded with steamroller efficiency. No matter how many times they attempt to brainwash the next generation of public school children, it isn’t right behavior…it is sinful, it is unsafe, it is shame-producing and death-resulting. Lust is not love and every inclination of the heart and whim of the will should NOT NOT NOT be followed, no matter how intoxicating.

The gayness is an issue.

What’s wrong with “innocence”? I’m 40 years old, and I still strive for innocence of evil. I’d never read this book. (I’d skim if it I were on the school board or otherwise had a reason to need to read it. As a regular citizen, I don’t need to read it, and shan’t.) Years ago I picked up The Color Purple. I knew little about it except that it was considered quality literature about the black experience. Somewhere into it, I thought, Is this going where I think it’s going? (Hints of lesbian sex.) I read a little more, and it clearly was. Now, I rarely, rarely start a book and don’t finish it, even if I don’t like it. That book didn’t get finished. Why? I’m an adult, but I value my innocence.

I don’t believe that parents who take a strong stand against OR love their kids can stand by and watch . . corrupt literature, sexual training within schools, be it homosexual, bisexual, transsexual, or training kids ‘how’ to have sex can keep their kids in public school.

Even in High School there is no need for this explicit education into various forms of sex, or choices, etc.

The liberal ideas of nonsensical teachers and administrators have gone so far, most can’t remember (back when I was a kid) when parents were the controlling factor in their child’s education. . . when parents wouldn’t stand for anything even remotely resembling this sort of pornographic so called ‘literature’- I’m sure there are the mindless, who claim “how can you judge literature”, well it sure doesn’t take a great mind to see that what has been posted as a TOPIC is trash.

Are the teachers in our public schools so undereducated, and deluded by their own sexual perversion that they have to foist it on the rest of us? Is this world so lacking in ‘REAL LITERATURE’ or do we need to fill in the gaps with trash.

My question is “WHY would any thinking, educated person call this ‘literature’? How obtuse can one be?

Falling

at the heart of my heart, im a writer. this book took me 3 years to write and i loved every minute of the process.

“Falling” is an urban fiction novel set during a Montreal winter. The book deals with the complete destruction an introverted photographer named Severen experiences when hes left by his drug-addicted girlfriend. “Falling” is first and foremost a novel about the wasteland of emotion that broken love can wreak upon an individual. It’s also a novel about the delusions, mental chaos, denial, and drug abuse that can happen when a person chooses to avoid pain by losing themselves in another person.
Written from an emotional male point of view, the elements of sex and drugs aren’t only gratuitous; you follow Severen as he grasps for anything to avoid fully dealing with having to feel the pain of ended love.

A Call to Arms:

As the next ruler of Leldyna, Rae must continue to learn all she can about her homeland. Time flies by as she tours the land to meet the inhabitants. Upon her return a shock greets her in the form of an old law, marriage or disownment. Wary of the choices selected by the Council, Rae agrees. Another surprise awaits her then in the form of an old friend. Can Rae do what she needs without losing herself to her obligations or will she have to leave it all? Just when she thinks it’s over another worse situation develops: pirates!

Not everyone agrees, of course. Of the (presently) 377 Amazon.com customer reviews of the book, 271 give The Demon-Haunted World the maximum five-star rating while 14 give it just one. Here are a few telling excerpts from the one-star review crowd:

He has always been very superficial when criticizing the so called “pseudosciences”, a term that, by the very way he uses it, only shows how his outlook on Science and on human Knowledge is short-sighted. Sagan sees Science as the supreme method for looking at and for understanding the Universe we live in, looking with despise on other ways of understanding reality (presently, I prefer to see Science as just one out of many different ways of grasping Nature’s mysteries).

I myself like to look at the Universe with my head tilted 45 degrees to the left.

It amazes me that this book is so extravagantly over praised. It really is a dull, creaky, moldy hymn to the belief that science can substitute for religion. Wrong. In a materialist universe, nihilism is the only point of view justified by the facts and the only objection to even crimes against humanity such as genocide is that you don’t personally like it (as Bertrand Russell admitted).

In other words, “Without my unquestioned faith, there would be nothing to keep me from going on a mass murder spree.” In that case, what can I say but “YAY, DOGMATIC ZEALOTRY” (and check to see if Kevlar vests qualify for super saver shipping rates).

I find myself perplexed at Sagan’s utter lack of consideration for the area thru which matter-science and spirit are interoperative. One example is his comment regarding abduction scenarios and why aliens never are “caught” by house alarms hooked to cameras and the like. I mean, I thought we were talking about alien phenomena, not the babysitter or neighborhood crook.

Unless your babysitter or neighborhood crook happens to be Gorthan from Rigel-Prime, trying to pick up some extra solar credits in between his usual gig of dispensing 50′s sci-fi movie clichés and anal probes…

To paraphrase Epicurus: I spit on science and all those who worship it if it does not make us happier. Sagan and all the members of the Church of the Scientific Inquisition need to justify every scientific discovery with an affirmative answer to the following: Will knowing this increase human happiness? If the answer is negative (as it clearly is for such things as the ability to manufacture bio-terrorist weapons) then let us bury that scientific discovery and be done with it. Sagan and his other scientism buddies worship science for its own sake. We need to judge everything according to whether it makes us happier or not. Once you make something other than human happiness be the criterion for what is good or bad, you have disengaged yourself from the species and are an enemy of mankind. If science helps-great! If it unleashes tools and weapons that no one can control-to the trash heap it must go!!

Using internet technology to pass vulgar utilitarian rants off as book reviews? Not increasing human happiness, I’m afraid. The trash heap is that way, compadre.

He must take us all to be dumb, inbred, crud breeders. To him we must be too dumb to tell a UFO from swamp gas or bigfoot from a guy in a costume.

Just a little defensive, eh?

What can I say,
The Devil is preety good at covering stuff up. He uses even the best Scientist and astronomers to crush anything spiritual.

Of coarse this book is garbage and I suggest that everyone who likes this book to please take yourself and your scientific thinking out of the box.

In the next coming years people you are gonna see some serious evil spirtual activity and because you have polluted yourselves with closing your mind of to it, you won’t know or be ready for the things that are going to occur.

Get thee behind me, rudimentary syntax and grammar skills — I WILL NOT BE PUT IN A BOX AND POLLUTED!
