| Just to put some more context on one of my earlier points. In the last 20 years we are seeing an inevitable transition of our personal identities being exaggerated online personas that distort the reality of our true personality/self to other people. This exaggeration also happens when we meet peopl... |

| Several problems ...hundreds of folks of equal creditials say he's full of it. . Because postulating the existence of aliens is calling for a paradigm shift that represent ontological shock for perhaps thousands of scientists who have been conditioned to believe that existence of aliens is forbidde... |

| So FINNALLY you find ONE mainstream member of the scientific community who has more credentials than Grahan Hancock or Eric Van Danikan, or Tsoukakis, so you latch on to him with a death grip. . I did post of about Professor John Mack who founded the School of Psychiatry at Harvard. Did you read wh... |

| What exactly was he "right about"? Nothing. He just pointed what everybody already knew. That both objects were intersteller in origin and both had anomalies. All he did was to tack on his own purely speculative explanations for the anomalies ... And what pray tell is wrong with postulati... |

| Soon Loeb's reputation will be on par with Tsoukalos'. Tsoukalos is a media personality not an academic. Academic reputation isn't based on the opinions of social media. It isn't subject to realtime popularity. Loeb's academic reputation has already been established based on his publication record,... |

| Loeb put his reputation on the line, and since he's consistently been wrong about pretty much everything he's claimed, it's costing him that reputation. What was he wrong about? both the objects entering our solar system in 2014 and 2017 were interstellar in origin (he was right about that) Both ob... |

| Rather than blindly copy/pasting responses attacking him from colleagues who (as he has said) are likely jealous of his achievements, why not evaluate yourselves what he is claiming (I am sure you are all capable of doing this if you want). In 2017 he was one of many astronomers studying the detecti... |

While Israel was truly divided prior to the war and Bibi is reviled it is important to note that the massive pre war protests featured a sea of Israeli flag wavi... |
