Humanoidlord's job here is to undermine any promising avenue to understanding what we're dealing with, because his entire religious belief system about it mandates that it's incomprehensible by nature (the "cosmic trickster hypothesis"). That's why he posts 10,000 times per week - he has to beat down all of our efforts to get a better understanding of this phenomenon, and it's a lot of work because a lot of people are striving to make actual progress, and all of those efforts pose a direct threat to his cosmic trickster religion.

Indeed and a reflection of how these cosmic god theories about UFOs seem to be bringing humanity yet another new barbaric religion, as if this world needs that...

I don't want to derail this thread, but the most common complaint about any "trickster" explanation for weird things in general and UFO reports specifically, is that they tend to simply replace "God's will" with "trickster", getting us precisely nowhere.

The various trickster traditions and myths are very interesting to study, and they can tell us an awful lot about human nature, but as with any such cultural artifacts it is important to keep them in context. The internet has turned out to be an extremely effective tool for stripping away context and leaving a lot of wildly misleading debris scattered at random. It gets really deep in some places. :)
 
I find the religious aspects entering UFO conversation problematic, worst are usually coming from the "UFOs are demons" crowd. What a load of horseshit. We didnt survive the dark ages to go right back into them.

Excellent work, truly you have covered the topic of Ray Stanford quite well...I have to ask though, because this one question cannot escape me, what if the images are real images of alien craft of some sort?...In other words, what if he's not making it up about the images?...Granted we may never know for sure, there may lay some proof in those images of something extraordinary and quite alien to us, its also hard to understand the rational of people sometimes...

You'll get no argument from me about that - I'm a passionate advocate of transparency and the public sharing of all scientifically significant knowledge. And I also think that the survival of global civilization depends upon the kind of breakthrough technology that these devices represent, so there's a profound moral imperative to put his data out in the public domain so scientists can analyze it and if possible make use of it.
i doubt it would be anything better than what we already have, but it still would be interesting
We have to take a lot on faith without more supporting evidence, granted. But this "selective skepticism" of yours is incredibly hypocritical, and obviously a debating tactic rather than a sincere argument. You seem to believe every cock-eyed fish tale about private lunch dates with aliens and other wild fantasies that sound more like folklore than reality - but you stand by them with zero supporting evidence because the crazier a story is, the more it seems to support your "magical quasidimensional trickster god" hypothesis. And here we have what appears to be credible empirical evidence of genuine scientific value, and suddenly you're playing the skeptic. Pick one: either be a skeptic, or be a dewy-eyed true believer. Because what you're doing now is pure hypocrisy, and flagrantly duplicitous.
here's the golden rule: if various stories made by various people of all social categories contain similar elements wich they shouldn't know or contains reference to obscure mithology or occult symbolism, you know something is up
also obviously, an image is much more easier to analysis than a story
In any case, the potential importance of this data is far too significant to brush off without a closer look. That's one of the many reasons that I find Ray Stanford's covetous decision to keep his larger data set private so frustrating - we need to be able to vet and analyze this film footage, and he's not letting anyone do that.
the fact that he only wants selected people to see it is a HUGE red flag IMO, and i have no idea how a veteran ufologist like you can't see this obvious element of the story

now you are making fun of my posting quantity? have you ever heard of something called free speech?

nivek, i never mentioned anything related to the cosmic trickster here, why are you and thomas derailing the thread? i have already talked about all this, but its pretty clear that its a senseless battle, neither of us will change your belief

i don't belong to that crowd
in fact i think alleged manifestations of angels and demons are the same thing, the phenomena can make itself sound good or evil to whoever it wants, thats why its so confusing, it isn't meant to make sense

A very disappointing read.

Now, that is just the type of thoughtful, detailed critique that I have come to expect from you. But, thanks for the bump.

By the way, as I promised in my reply to you on February 12, 2019, I did delve somewhat deeper into the citation by Dr. Meessen of purported instrumented readings of a UFO event that he had received from Ray Stanford. Meessen was unable or unwilling to produce any evidence that he (Meessen) had any access whatever to the original instrumented data on the purported event. It appears that my initial impression was correct -- apparently Meessen just gullably regurgitated what Stanford sent him, probably images of a printout or such. As Meessen put it in his paper, in which you put so much stock, "We are grateful to Ray Stanford for providing extracts of these important recordings." In other words, another unsubstantiated claim by Stanford.

Despite Stanford's great number of claims to have obtained extraordinary UFO-related evidences, claims made over a period of more than 60 years, I am aware of only two instances in which Stanford submitted raw data to truly independent authorities. One example was an episode in 1959 during which Stanford obtained two movie films; he rather promptly submitted the undeveloped film to an independent photo processor. Stanford apparently later provided the original developed movie film to NICAP for analysis. NICAP said the films "do not substantiate the verbal report and do not constitute significant evidence of UFOs as the matter now stands." I wrote about this here.

The second example was Stanford's submission of small metallic scrapings, purportedly from the object that was witnessed by Lonnie Zamora at Socorro, New Mexico, in 1964, which Stanford submitted to Goddard scientists for analysis. When Stanford's sample was found to be unremarkable, he concocted an elaborate conspiracy theory, which he many years later he produced as a book, rejected as highly subjective and inaccurate by others who had been directly involved, including NICAP's Richard Hall. I wrote about this here.

The second episode was 55 years ago. Since then, Stanford has found, in each generation, persons such as yourself, who are willing to defend his extraordinary claims based on nothing more substantive than what Stanford himself says about this or that image or artifact. One fellow even wrote half a book interpreting images that he was not even allowed to reproduce in the book.

Although you found my posts "disappointing," feedback I've received tells me that many others have found the posts, and the documents and recordings uploaded with them, to be illuminating. Those who wish to submit additional feedback or questions in private may do so by sending me email.

has anyone ever had a look at the alleged photo of a craft over the dynamite shack near the Zamoia sighting site in Ray's possession?

Just to disambiguate. I was disappointed in Standford not you. You've done a phenomenal job.

But you should had published these citations much earlier.

I accept information in a good fate. How much time in a world would one need if he followed each rabbit hole?

That could easily be a timeless pursuit...

...

This forum served well the purpose of sharing information and coming up with new insights based on that. I would had never found by myself all the good information other people contributed. I hope that others learned something from info I brought in.

Well done AlienExpanse forum :)

Thank you for this clarification. Perhaps I may be forgiven for misunderstanding your comment above, since I think that the last comments that I had received from you regarding my posts on Ray Stanford, were your posts back in February, in which you said that I was engaged in criticizing Stanford for "youthful sins" (in fact, I had quoted mostly things Stanford said after age 35, and up into his 70s), and accused me of "character assassination" (to which I responded that if so, the character-damaging words and actions were those of Stanford himself -- I was merely presenting them to a wider audience).

But you should had published these citations much earlier.

Sorry, I was busy.

But, a lot of this information that I have posted was not that hard to find. Stanford apparently has a way with words, and it seems that some people find his stories and peep-shows too enjoyable to check.

(Some of it, however, took some work to find. At this point, I have a lot of material that I haven't written on, but may turn to again in the future, if circumstances justify the investment of time.)

Stanford has a pattern of surfacing with extraordinary UFO claims, getting a bunch of people excited about them, and then fading into obscurity without any of the extraordinary claims being validated (and often, they have been disproved), leaving behind disillusioned followers. He has repeated this pattern on multiple occasions since the mid-1950s (he is now 81 years old). On each re-appearance, he gains a new following who accept his representations regarding his history, his photos, his artifacts.

In 2011, Stanford proclaimed himself to be "the most seasoned researcher into these [UFO] phenomena alive today." If so, it shouldn't be hard to find UFO researchers who knew Stanford in the UFO context 30 or 40 years ago, who now hold Stanford in high regard as a source of credible UFO evidence, right? If you find one, let me know. My email address is my first name, followed by a single underscore, followed by my last name, at protonmail, dot, com.
