Be it ghosts, deities, UFOs, auras, crystals, or vast conspiracies centered on pizza restaurants... underlying all of this is a desire for the fantastic. We want our emotions stirred. Most folks find that in music, art, books, movies etc... But for some reason, many humans are not content with story and imagination. They want it to be "real".
I do too. It would be a blast if people could swing between buildings after being bitten by a radioactive spider. How amazing would it be if aliens landed in Central Park and wanted to introduce us to the wonders of the universe. Wouldn't it be great if a deity or two could secure peace and let us know that everything will be alright?
I just don't think that is the world we inhabit.
But I understand the draw.

I haven't been paying too much attention about Congress and UFO's. I have just figured they are unidentified flying objects of the military kind and not of alien origin. I trust in scientists more than politicians. Scientists would have reported aliens by now if they had been found. Politicians aren't bright enough to find any aliens.
