The "scientific method" is what we are talking about vs. what exactly? The Internet, the method by which we are communicating, the myriad machines that make it up, was designed and is maintained through science and not through meditation, looking within, or revealed knowledge, nor could it ever be. The evidence that Crop Circles are created by human beings through the use of rather prosaic mechanical methods is there for all to see. Some of the makers are more than willing to tell and explain all about it, but you have to have an open mind and the willingness to examine the evidence without bias. The reluctance to let go of the paranormal explanation for something by people who claim to be on some sort of spiritual journey to the truth is incredibly disconcerting but not surprising to me for the simple reason I did the same thing for many years. I understand where you are coming from after a fashion. However, at some point the passion for the truth must overtake any pet theories or ideas that we might have or it isn't a pursuit of truth at all. This can very difficult, depending on the subject, or at least it was for me. As I've said before, believe what you will, but at least look at all of the evidence available and revise your conclusions as necessary. For your sake.

It seems you're extra passionate about this trainedobserver, but what exactly are you suggesting, are you simply refuting specifically the snow circles discussed here, or are you generalizing a conclusion that ALL crop circles are fake (man made)? I'm assuming the latter?

These snow circles are most likely man-made as well. They could have been manufactured any number of ways. In my opinion, and in my experience, these things are distractions and don't really provide any insight into the UFO phenomena, but rather cloud the study of it with disinformation and wasted energies. |

I think that having a sincere opinion on a topic - crop circles, in this case - is something completely different as spreading disinfo & utter BS. -- MOD EDIT -- INSULT REMOVED -- Last edited by GaiaLove; 12-22-2009 at 06:45 PM. |

Well it's nice to see everyone playing nice today....
DIs info or not.... I'm pretty sure members such as yourselves should be able to understand that you should never believe what any one person tells you... That is why we have our own discernment.... this is a forum with people who have certain views/opinions..... it's up to you to decide what you want to believe... |

Jonah, Im a very 'cheerful' person, but I get very aggitated when I smell trolls.
I'm always open for well documented statements opinions on a subject, but in this case I just notice 2 persons throwing in a lot of blunt statements. The 'Matthew' video has as much scientific value as the Nat. Geo. documentary. None. The crop formation discussion is not about what's obviously man made, it's about that which cannot be explained. I've often been to Wiltshire, saw very complex formation appear in broad daylight with only a one hour interval, no tracks to be seen & a pattern only vissible from the air. Both Soulcrafter & Trainedobserver make a mockery of the crop circle subject & that really pisses me off. The forum is not meant for (big time) BS posts. At least, that's my opinion. (I'm not hiding behind an anonymous avatar. Anybody who wants to know what TRANCOSO's real name is - who I am - can find me at www.ikgeloofalles.nl - as I've already posted before in a seperate thread.) |

Sorry, i just dont believe you. You are most probably part of the "lets lie to damn the ******* circlemakers" brigade. Sorry to be blunt but circles dont appear in broad daylight. Its just that simple. If so, please oh pretty please tell me which one you saw that formed infront of you. I really am all ears on this. Go ahead make my day. I cant wait to tell the circlemakers who created it that apparently they are all mentally ill and deluding themselves that they were out at night creating it! Seriously though dude. This isnt funny hearing people saying this stuff. Re: National geo and other documentaries. What you maybe dont realise is that journlists come along and they basically put their cards down on the table with researchers and tell them what they intend doing. This causes researchers to say "If your going to film or speak to circlemakers we wont give you an interview". Which is why now a lot of docu makers dont say who they are working with because researchers just pull tantrums and pull out. However journalists arent interested in b******t they want the inside story. So they speak to everyone, get the juicy angles and play one side off against the other for entertainment purposes. However they will usually come down more favourably on the side they know is telling the truth. So after speaing to both sides which side usually wins the truth argument??? Well circlemakers every time! The only time you see "circles cant be made by people" put forward in a docu is when the docu makers have a bias agenda or believers making those documentaries, orthey are codus made by crop circle lovers like Suzanne Taylor (grrr). National Geo arent in the business of siding with the loonies of the world... and the arguments given by researchers are easily washed away with demonstrations with circlemakers making circles. One journalist this year gave us a list of things the researchers said we couldnt create. So we ticked everything off on their list by creating those effects in front of the cameras. No lengthy set ups either, we were being challenged to do it - so we did it with no questions asked, bosh bosh... theres your circles with those effects present. You see the difference is that we as circlemakers have factual things we can do and show. Researchers make claims. thats the difference. We actually go out and show what we can do. Thats fact. Journalists can see the difference. Now we cant win against people who want to make up wild stories that cannot be disproved but it just goes to show how far the believer community will go. |

This is odd behaviour because most researchers will boldly claim they know which circles are man made and can clearly tell... so why not say then. This is always fishy. Try asking circles researchers this question and see how they squirm. Its quite an interesting reaction usually which may end up with them becoming very quickly paranoid and wanting to know why you want to know and who are you working with and do you know circlemakers and quite often gets the "I AM NOT BEING TESTED BY YOU" reaction. I dont make this stuff up by the way. Try it... see where it gets you. Perfectly reasonable and innocent question and it really does peel back the skin to reveal the researcher underneath. Note to others reading: I will ask people keep their emotions down as this is a very emotional subject and quickly gets out of hand. I have seen peoples reactions to me escelate into everything up to actual physical violence so I know how heated the debate can be but I am asking for some calm if we are to discuss these things. Please by all means try and pull down what I am saying but do it with rational points and facts rather than feelings and un-backed statements. If you feel I have not backed up what i am saying please feel fre and I will go into more detail. This is probably the only good way forward with this. |

Red Card, your pointing it the wrong way.
If it was so easy to prove dont you think it would be in the main stream media? and excepted science? All this prove it stuff reminds me or myself having a row with my sister.. " Prove it?" we would shout at each other... Im not 7 anymore.. Thanks very much. If you have no constuctive information to give PLEASE give none. Thanks kindly. |

There arent any I see that dont look like they couldnt be made by people. Theres nothing so complicated that it would be too hard.. so basically yes. However I can verify i know most of the UK circlemakers and do not know people from abroad... apart from a few who I have infrequent contact with. Seeing as I know every person doing them in the UK I know who does what. Its just part of being in the loop. I dont know who is doingh what overseas.

It doesn't work like that, you should have known that by now. The arrogance of some people shees! This is not what circlemakers do you know. They might as well put their names near the formations. It's art without the signature. The rest is up for the people who admire them and see symbolism in them. And IF we would say who made what are you gonna post the thousands of formations here and ask who, what and where? Think about it |

Wrong, MOST- but not all.
This guy says he knows everyone who has made every cropcircle in the UK. Okay, names is a stretch. Details then. My point is- this guy is talking out is a$$ and he knows it. Wants to feel important. ARMCHAIR EXPERT. |

We are here to answer your questions but if you are going to insist on taking the high ground on this when as far as I am aware you havent been on any TV or Radio shows or featured in books or magazines on this subject then why should we bow down to you telling us "fact" in this abusive manner?

OK- know what?
I'll take everything back, I said... just explain this to me: What do they MEAN, and what are they FOR? And don't give me the 'artistic expression' line... |
