Shadow Government?

The concept of a "Shadow Government" I think was more useful from about 1945 to 1950 or 1960 than
it is now. If there really was a shadow government regarding the whole UFO issue there wouldn't be so many UFO stories on channels like the "History Channel" and others, for example. Of course you can get really worked up by the whole "Us" versus "Them" kind of idea if you want to but I just don't find that to be either realistic or plausible since about the time that "Operation Blue Book" was completed.

No. The way I see it after all the research of my life since I was born in 1948 is something like this. At the very first after Roswell, the government tried to hide anything about Roswell because of the people who had died during Orson Wells' "War of the Worlds" reading live on radio on the east coast around 1940. However, by the late 1950s and early 1960s most intelligent people in the U.S. knew Roswell actually happened, they just also knew that being openly verbal about it was dangerous to their careers here in the U.S.

At this point here in 2011 it is more like this. I gave the example to my wife of how parents try to protect their younger children from concepts like pornography and electrical devices and prostitution. So parents will often go to extreme lengths to try to preserve younger children's innocence. Likewise, since many people in the U.S. and around the world are like children in that they emotionally or mentally or both couldn't handle it if the U.S. suddenly said something like, "Roswell was real and we know there are interdimensional travelers from other worlds with technology about 10,000 years or more in advance of ours. We have no control of this technology or those people at all and we are completely vulnerable to anything they want to do to us past, present or future." Now, are you happy?
You might be intelligent and emotionally secure in yourself and life to handle this but at the very least about 20 to 50% of the world population might not be able to handle this and just go catatonic, stop working, stop believing in their religions and all civilization on earth would come to a standstill.

Yes. You are right many people who believe something is going to happen in 2012 already are not working, freaking out or praying a lot already. But imagine if the Government said, "WE have no control of anything and we are all victims of these extraterrestrial or inter dimensional beings."

So, this is why the government doesn't come out and say anything. It is to avoid panic and mayhem and the end of human civilization on earth. I think they are right.

It is sort of like the Statement made by Jack Nicholson in one of his movies, "You can't handle the truth!"


Well. The truth actually is "Some of us can handle the truth and others couldn't"


So, is there a shadow government? Not really anymore than there are parents who don't want their kids to learn about things that would cause them to lose their innocence.(innocense in this sense meaning religions, forms of earth governments, education, business, corporations etc.)

So, does this mean that most people on earth are presently living in a fantasy? Probably yes. 
However, it would depend upon how one defines "Fantasy". Some fantasies are useful and some are destructive and some are both depending upon when one lives in them. So, are religions fantasies? Depends upon who you talk to. Are governments fantasies? Once again it depends upon who you talk to. Are educational systems, businesses, corporations fantasies? (depends upon who you talk to and what you believe). 


So, in the end it all boils down to "How adaptable are you?" If you are adaptable enough you might be able to handle the truth eventually. If not, then you won't be able to handle it until you are adaptable enough and pragmatic enough. This is true of everyone everywhere in any time and space.


And here's the kicker, "If a being doesn't believe what it needs to believe to survive, it doesn't."
This is natural selection in action and this is always very very hard to watch.
