HIV vs UFO

I just did a Google image search and came up with a peculiar juxtaposition. There are 295 000 photo's of HIV and 504 000 of UFO's. In the society and level of sophistication that we are living, we are always asking for evidence, and do not want to believe without having seen with our own eyes, yet there are 1.7 times as many photo's of UFO's as the HIV virus.

There is more focus on the latter and the former is regarded as a harmless, but slightly strange pastime. There are billions being poured into AIDS research and the study of UFO's is conducted by a few privately sponsored individuals and societies. Should there not be more evidence?

We are accepting on blind faith and trust in the people who are telling us how it works and what is happening, without questioning anything ourselves. Is this really wise?I can give another qoute in support of the argument that we are not being totally objective and that we should look at things in an enlightened and educated manner.

"If ever there was in the world a warranted and proven history, it is that of vampires. Nothing is lacking; official reports, testimonials of persons of standing, of surgeons, of clergymen, of judges; the evidence is all embracing." - Jean Jacques Rousseau.

Who can fight against that kind of evidence?

We are agreeing with what we have been told and believe what has been said without questioning it. Are we really so enlightened? Why can we not look at all that is given as evidence and listen to all that is said and written, instead of trying to make others wrong who are prepared to look further and deeper? Are we not more close-minded by our belief and insistence not to listen? Are we not prepared to listen first instead of making an instant judgement?

There are people who are being labelled 'dissidents' because they do not agree with commonly known facts. Just like it was commonly known that the earth was flat. Would it not be wiser to listen than to ignore, or is our fear of being wrong that big and overpowering?
Thabo Mbeki was much ridiculed when he suggested we look further, have a look yourself and find out about the SMON fiasco, before you judge.

A question that has remained unanswered: Why is it that with all the thousands of so-called AIDS deaths, our mortaliy rate in SA is the same as the UK?
