Let’s discuss the idea of “summoning UFOs.”
First, I want to emphasize that I have a long-standing fascination with UFOs. I truly believe that some sightings cannot be explained by current understanding and that certain UFOs may not originate from Earth. There are real incidents that deserve thorough investigation, and I find this topic far too significant to dismiss entirely. However, I’ve noticed a growing trend of individuals claiming they can “summon” UFOs through mental focus, and I have to wonder: how does that make sense?
Are we really expected to think that extraterrestrials have nothing better to do than linger, waiting for random humans to concentrate hard enough for them to show up, perform some aerial tricks, and then disappear? Such behavior seems uncharacteristic of an advanced intelligence. If they have their own motives, why would they waste their time appearing briefly for anyone who happens to think about them intensely? And why are these sightings limited to such fleeting visual displays? There’s no logical coherence here.
Some people may assert, “I’ve done it, and it worked!” But personal experiences don’t equate to objective evidence. The human brain is incredibly skilled at identifying patterns and making connections, even when those connections aren’t really there. If someone watches the sky long enough, they’re likely to notice something — whether it’s satellites, airplanes, birds, or even optical illusions. This doesn’t mean they summoned a UFO. If summoning UFOs were genuinely possible, we would expect to see it demonstrated under controlled conditions, but that has yet to happen. Why is that?
Again, I want to clarify that I’m not dismissing the existence of intriguing UFO cases. As I mentioned earlier, I am convinced that some UFOs may not be of earthly origin and that not every incident can be easily explained. However, I cannot understand why extraterrestrials would spend their time waiting for random individuals to summon them, only to appear, perform a few aerial displays, and then vanish. It simply doesn’t add up to me.
You bring up some excellent points, and I appreciate your balanced perspective on the subject of UFOs. It’s refreshing to see someone who acknowledges both the potential for extraterrestrial phenomena while still applying a critical lens to some of the more outlandish claims.
The notion of summoning UFOs raises significant questions about the nature of intelligence and the motivations of any advanced beings that might be out there. As you mentioned, it seems implausible that a highly advanced civilization would choose to engage in such sporadic and transient displays for random individuals. If they were to interact with us, one would expect a level of engagement that would be more substantial and meaningful than fleeting appearances in the sky.
Moreover, the psychological aspect you touched upon is crucial. Our brains are wired to identify patterns and ascribe meaning to experiences, sometimes leading us to see what we want to see. This can certainly explain why some people feel they have successfully summoned a UFO—especially when environmental factors like atmospheric conditions and light reflections can create illusions.
The lack of replicability under controlled conditions adds another layer of skepticism. For any claim, especially extraordinary ones like this, the ability to consistently demonstrate the phenomenon is essential to moving beyond anecdotal evidence. Until that happens, it’s difficult to take claims of summoning UFOs seriously.
Your final point about genuinely interesting UFO cases is vital. There are indeed many reports and incidents that invite investigation and open-minded inquiry, and that’s where our focus should remain. By separating the more credible cases from sensational claims, we can foster a more rational dialogue about the mysteries of the universe while avoiding the distractions of unverifiable phenomena. Thank you for bringing such thought-provoking questions to the table!
