"The Dave Emmons and Tom Althouse Show" with Thomas Ferrario -a personal opinion: Messengers of Deception

It appears that we have a new UFO cult. Unless you are a complete conspiracy nut then this video is going to leave you asking what the **** is going on?

If you seriously study UFO reports you can define what you are doing with; natural (but not yet scientifically studied), misidentification and seemingly genuine unknown craft. That's it. But it seems that many "names" in Ufology are NOT doing that research. For this reason they mix up all three and see "totally unknown, impossible phenomenon -it can't be aliens!" Basing any opinions on the poor research of Vallee etc only adds to confusion.

I have been in and working outside Ufology since 1974 and befrore that I was reading UFO books and publications. In the 1950s cults were established via infiltration of Ufology by intelligence agencies and the contactees were the ones everyone were led to believe were the ones telling the truth and Borderland Frontiers was a right wing, racist organisation behind a lot of this -again with "someone" pulling the strings. The contactees became discredited so we then were told, in the 1960s, "flying saucers are hostile -trust the USAF to look into this!" followed by "Oh, its all BS. Don't panic. The USAF ain't even going to bother with them any more!" 

Then, in the 1970s the whole UFO and cults came back again. This time the secret force behind UFOs were the Rosicrucians.  We found out that the Men In Black were operated by the Risicrucians. Add a smatter of fake stories and sensationalist tales in popular books and there you have it.

Richard Doty

At the same time Richard Doty working for the Office of Special Investigation (OSI) carried out a disinformation campaign and paid some top Ufolohgists such as William Moore and paid them to spread lies. In the case of Mr Bennewitz it was Doty and his pals that drove him to insanity and he ended his years in a mental facility. Doty then became a Ufologist and for having destroyed US Ufology for decades -became a star speaker and is definitely 'not' continuing his deception.

Incidentally, mail gets torn, lost, a postal worker looks inside for various reasons but this ALWAYS falls down to the "secret influences".

The Illuminati became popular in books and movies and TV and...the Illuminati are behind UFOs...or the Vatican.

This video is basically pushing religion, conspiracy theories that fall apart on scrutiny and are nothing new -this was going on in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s and continues as we see here. Either these people are schmucks and are being deceived and led into what they are spouting; for one thing Stanton T. Friedman was an interplanetary nuts and bolts man right up to his death and some of the others mentioned in lead booted name-dropping to add credibility to these ridiculous claims were not all shouting out "inter-dimensional!"  

Jacques Vallee

Those that did start leaning that way were influenced by the Messenger of Deception Jacques Vallee and whether that was because of his poor research or deliberately I have no idea. He still says (paraphrasing) "Aliens are boring I think they are interdimensional".

Budd Hopkins

For goodness sake when will Ufology, a fringe group at best, wake up?  Budd Hopkins destroyed one major aspect of Ufology and Jacobs (a "reliable source" we are told in this video) has put and is still putting Ufology through a blender and people are falling for it.

Elizondo and all of those other counter intelligence guys that lied to Ufology and everyone else about UFOs for decades tell a story and suddenly we have no more UFOs it's all "UAP" and everyone is using that tag. Ufology has people attacking those who for decades have tried to dig for the truth but now they are pointing out all the problems in the Elizondo and AATIP story they become "the enemy". What is currently going on is not new and it was tried in different ways from the 1950s into 1990s and what we see now (increased secrecy on UFOs seems to counter the open-ness promised by Elizondo et all) will be repeated again in another 10 years.

David Jacobs

Ufology is being played and it seems only a few have any idea this is happening but they are, of course, "the enemy" of Disclosure (which has been coming every year since 1999). And now we have this video.

Sit back with a cup of coffee or tea and watch and LISTEN to this again. There is a religious narrative plus so many mentions of how "sources" have passed this information along but these people have NEVER seen the evidence -why would someone feed them a line?

Ferrario has successfully destroyed his scientific credibility and that is sad as I had hoped that he might come up with some of the Ted Phillips files with trace evidence and test results that no one has apparently ever seen. I now have to be suspicious of his Marley Woods claims and, again, nothing has changed since Phillips' day -the same "its just a light" photos/video and some strands of hair the test results of which we are told and not shown.

This is the point; if you have collected and tested "UFO" evidence you do not keep it in the collection. You publish the results so that it can all be peer reviewed by other scientists and confirmed.  To me Marley Woods is just another Skinwalker Ranch and US Ufology itself has been corrupted from within by counter intelligence and weakened even more by claims such as we hear in this video. John Keel would be rubbing his hands and loving this.
