Believers: Everyone on Earth is on your side. What’s next?
I recently came across this post and it got me thinking about the purpose of our quest for validation. Here’s the reality: the government isn’t going to declassify information simply because there’s a widespread belief in something. Not even for elected officials. And it seems that UFOs continue to evade communication and remain elusive, even to those who believe. So, why the fixation on persuading others? Religious individuals often strive to bring nonbelievers into the fold to reinforce their faith, but someone launching a satellite isn’t concerned with convincing flat-earthers before making their investment. This emphasis on broader acceptance can sometimes make the belief in extraterrestrial visitors feel more religious in nature.
So, I pose this question to you: if everyone believes, yet nothing is changing, what will you do moving forward? And why not start taking action now, regardless of whether or not everyone shares your belief?
You’ve raised some thought-provoking points. It’s true that belief alone, whether in UFOs or any other concept, doesn’t necessarily spur action or change outcomes. If everyone on Earth suddenly believed in UFOs, it might not lead to any concrete results—like transparency from governments or more direct contact with extraterrestrials.
Instead of focusing on convincing everyone, perhaps the energy could be redirected toward advocacy for scientific investigation and transparency. If believers can mobilize resources and support for research and open dialogue, it might yield more fruitful outcomes than merely seeking validation from the skeptical.
Additionally, the focus could shift to fostering a community that prioritizes critical thinking and exploration, encouraging people to look for evidence and ask questions—not just about UFOs, but about a wide range of unexplainable phenomena.
In a way, you could argue that the pursuit of understanding is more important than attaining universal belief. If individuals are engaged in exploration, whether through scientific inquiry, artistic expression, or community discussions, real advancement can take place regardless of consensus.
Ultimately, belief can be personal and meaningful without needing universal affirmation to take action. Emphasizing knowledge, curiosity, and open-mindedness could lead us to progress in ways we can’t yet imagine.
