I really appreciate your articles. Thank you. I am a science fiction writer who enjoys the UAP mystery and researching it. The list of books and documentaries given by Joe Donovan below is excellent.

For me the essential issue always goes back to metaphysics. My books travel from AI and climate change, to ancient forms of technology and power sources, to asking the question do they know more than us about being, knowing, identity, time, and space?

It's been a wonderful eight year project. I published the first book through Double Dragon and it went out of print when the press was sold. I will publish with that imprint again sometime this year I hope, but am still working on revising and editing the series, especially the last book.

The problem for most people is that they don't really see the significance of this issue on their everyday lives. Most are struggling just to keep things together in the material world which our human bodies require us to live in. To move from that reality requires ascending up the Maslovian Hierarchy. Physiological Needs. Food, water, clothing, sleep, and shelter are the bare necessities for anyone's survival. ... Safety and Security. Once a person's basic needs are satisfied, the want for order and predictability sets in. ... Love and Belonging. ... Esteem. ... Self-Actualization. Once the process of self-actualization begins that's the point at which the question of other intelligent life forms sharing this planet/universe with us becomes important.

I do believe people within the real power structure which runs our world are in touch with, and being manipulated by a group/s of highly advanced, technologically competent material beings from other planets or parallel universes.

However for me the question is not what these extra-planetary/universe visitors know about advanced science and technology, but rather what they understand about the fundamental nature of reality; the first principles of being, identity and change, space and time, cause and effect, necessity and possibility.

The very simple and primitive religions/philosphies that currently provide guidance to huge segments of our population were created before our science and technology evolved..These religions and philosophies have provided control and a moral framework within which billions have lived since mankind began. I wonder how they will change if and when these others reveal themselves and their philosophies and beliefs.
