We don't want to eat you. We just want your eggs!
Surely, you don't plan to use them all do you? We just want a few of your eggs so we can create a slave race of Lyra's on our home planet. Oops! We mean master race, not slave race. Um. . er. . um just shut up and give us your eggs!
We need your eggs cause we spliced out our ovaries long ago. Boy, was that a big mistake! But it's all in the past now. What's important is that you have eggs, and we need them. Here read this book, it will answer all your questions. It will explain that we have a right to your eggs because you made a contract with us before you were born.
What you don't remember that? Gee that's too bad. No worries. We have remembered for you.
What's that? You want to see the contract? Um. . er. . um. . well it's in the archives somewhere and. . well see. . this is so embarassing. . our archive director is on vacation. . but he'll be back in 2012. We'll show you the contract then, ok sweetie?
Meanwhile. . . let's get those eggs!
That's awesome, thanks for the smile.

Well, it's not a court, but, it is a thread based on picking apart the disinformation "plot holes" that abound in the story we've been fed about the Grays over the past 30 years or so. That was the original goal of this thread, to present the other side of the story to counter balance the disinfo........to make people think.
Trust me, I know how fun it is to believe the official story. I used to, (when I was a kid and teen.). Why? Because in the time period where I was born and have been raised, I was fed the schpeel (sp) along with everybody else. We have been INUNDATED with the Grays over the past 30 years. Since I'm already into the weird topics, it was one more to soak up and roll around in and revel in. This was already talked about at the beginning of the thread though, so I won't retread over old ground and bore people.
I will recap though what some of these plot holes, as I call them, involve:
1. The fact that we've been pummeled with this info. for the past 30 years to the point where Grays are a media staple and mega $$ making marketing item. Gee, isn't this suspicious?
2. If they really were light beings who love us and who are here to save the day, where have they been all this time? hm. They've supposedly been here all along, but only now during the past 30 years are we being told that they're here to save us. hm.
3. The fact that we're told that they are "us in the future." Puhlease! Right! And we're supposed to BELIEVE this??
If you want to talk about intuition, let's talk intuition. And while we're at it, let's talk about common sense as well. I can excuse myself for buying into this....when I was like, 15. But not anymore. Now I have too much other information and life experience at my disposal to factor into the equation. When I was 15 I didn't have the other info., I was only getting the disinformation, (whether it was intentional disinfo. or inadvertant)
So I'm trying to reach people who have only focused on the fluff / disinformation.
See, in society we're given the TOTALLY typical two choice scenario to pick from when it comes to this subject. It's either:
1. Aliens don't exist. That's bunk and you're crazy. Now leave me alone so I can go back to studying my science textbook which knows everything.
or
2. Aliens exist! They're real! They're REAL and I BELIEVE! I BELIEEEEEEVE!! They're us in the future, they bred out their genetics, they're taking us for our sperm and eggs so they can fix themselvs, and they're going to usher us into a new age of enlightenment! And swap technology with us in the meantime! I BELIEEEEEEEEVE!"
But there's a third option, which is, Yes this phenomenon is real, yes, something exists which can be called a "Gray", but it's most likely not what we're being told it is. The truth, (if there is such a thing!!) may be a lot worse than we realize, I don't know.
But see, THERE'S a thought! And that's the one I never got growing up. I only heard the other two. So faced with such polar opposite choices, I of course picked the second.
This thread is about the third.
