Was it a Dream?
Imagine you have experienced something so mind blowing, that you must share it with the world. Overwhelmed with excitement, you assume your awesome revelation will be greeted as a miracle. Certain you are about to further the world's knowledge base, you begin to feel quite humble.
'I can't believe I was chosen,' you say, after recalling every last detail.
There is a long silence before you notice the first raised eye brow. Far from of a barrage of scientific questions, they ask, 'do you have a friend who can drive you home?'
Your priceless first hand account is considered nonsensical gibberish, by so called experts, who accept no recognition beyond their own.
Despairingly, the patronizing does not end there. 'Of course I believe you,' or 'Would you like a cup of tea?' become popular questions from friends and family. 'While work colleagues remark, 'You should take a few days off, rest a little.'
Frustrating? Incredibly so, yet this reaction is familiar to thousands worldwide, who claim to have experienced an Extra Terrestrial encounter. Annoyingly, false claims contribute hugely to discredit any account worthy of consideration.
However, does every claimant need someone to drive them home and give them a cup of tea? Is it possible that such testimony can be accurate? Future generations may well find our attitude amusing. 'Our ancestors had no clue that aliens existed, they thought galaxies were devoid of all intelligent life form'.
History may well make us appear rather silly. So, let us hope they don't probe further. If they discover that our ancestors thought the earth was flat, our humiliation would be complete.
