The book is written by emminent UFO researchers Budd Hopkins and Carol Rainey and delves into the common psychology and effects of trauma that abduction experiencers seem to share with one another. Have you a possible experience you'd share here in this thread ? Think it's all rubbish ? What are your thoughts ? :)

I don't really believ ein any of that stuff. I think people who claim to have been abducted are only looking for attention.

It would seem that many people don't even realise they may have been abducted...such people having lived quiet unassuming lives until a trigger memory. To say they are after attention may be true for some - Bob Lazar springs to mind. However, those with a trauma they can't place, thoughts they can't rationalise, these are the people that could gain by reading such books as Sight Unseen. It really is all swept under the carpet and ridiculed...would it not be better to look at what may cause such thoughts in the first place ? People may be confused, may latch to attention, may not have a clue what to do to get some memories back from another trauma situation. My view is that many people suffer abuse or other situations and the alien abduction experience may conveniently further help to mask the actual experience. If it seems to fit and seems wacky enough, then they may not have to face the real memory.

I'm interested in UFO research, and although I've never had a sighting, I know credible people who have. I believe it's egotistical for us to assume that we're the only sentient beings in the whole universe. I've also read this book, "Sight Unseen" by Budd Hopkins and Carol Rainey and found it interesting when Rainey described the technologies humans are inventing that match proclaimed UFO experiences and skeptics are saying "couldn't possibly happen". My view is "never say never!"
