DARPA "Time Traveler" Show Me Some Proof

[jstrummer78]

Hey All, Don't misunderstand me, I love Art, and ditched CTCAM after he left. I think a lot of the criticisms leveled @ Noory have merit- he is too pushy about his religious beliefs. That BS w/ the Tumeric powder is something I don't feel Art would ever consent to. But the man who claimed to be @ The Gettysburgh Address, although amusing, I wonder if he actually believes this stuff, or is just getting a twisted kick out of scamming people. Isn't it so convenient that not one of these "time travelers" can ever bring back something in the way of verifiable proof? Say, a functioning watch from the 1860s, a freshly minted newspaper, anything that could be tested and proven to be from that time period. I am less skeptical of the entire UFO community, I do believe people have seen and photographed some very inexplicable aerial phenomena. But when you hear stories like the one Art had years ago about a USAF member, who had a steamer trunk full of Roswell alien spacecraft/bodies photos, documents, and other paraphenalia, hoardes this world changing information all of his life. Upon his deathbed, he orders his family to destroy it all. Come on man-- if you were part of his family, would you do it? Destroy evidence of the biggest discovery of all time? I think not, even if only for monetary gain. It is BS stories such as this that help deligitimize some of the honest evidence. I am ready to believe anything, just show me some proof. People like that make it harder for the true believers @ places like MUFON to be taken seriously. Thanks for reading my rant, I am a "Time Traveller" member of Art's M.I.T.D. program, it so great to have him back. A voice made for radio.       JS

I honestly think sometimes Art's excitement of the topic leads people to believe that he is 'buying it' even though he usually does not. Unlike Noory he doesn't automatically accept everything but at the same time he doesn't become a debunker or someone who will grill someone to the point where they can't talk about the subject without being under attack.

Its a fine line to walk with subjects like these and I think generally Art does a good job. Again I think his fascination is sometimes mistaken for belief.

hOs, I agree, Art can toe the line like no one else. I simply wonder if these guys like the "DARPA Time Traveler" really believe what they are saying. My immediate (and I think the majority of peoples) instinct is to believe what people are saying. That is a dangerous thing when discussing the paranormal, UFOs, etc... If they truly believe a lot of this stuff, then either they are in need of mental health services, or this Cosmos is indeed a lot stranger than I can imagine. If they are lying, there is no shame too harsh to heap upon them. The enjoyment is in Art's voice and listening to the discussions for their pure escapist value.     JS78
