When people say they believe in astrology or homeopathy or natural healing or rave about mediums that proclaim, "I See Dead People," you should reply with, "I See Dumb People." When others say they talk to Jehovah or Allah or Jesus, you should ask them why these beings don't reply. For these silly beliefs and numerous others such as alien abductions, Bigfoot and healing crystals, we must learn to ask, 'Where is the evidence for this belief?'

We must apply critical thinking, reason, logic and science to the silly beliefs of the supernatural, the paranormal and pseudoscience. Blind faith in priests, natural therapists, New Age gurus or some smooth talking charlatan channelling aliens from another galaxy is foolhardy, making those who support these silly beliefs as superstitious, credulous and as ignorant as medieval peasants.
It's time to enter the 21st century and start thinking for yourself. Examine the evidence!

Should we consult UFO support group UFOCUS NZ for answers to these questions? Should we be worried about what aliens are up to or is it all a scam?
