Sorry Xenon, we can remove it from Imagine if you like.
No problem Chandre, but I think we will leave it as is, it is important that some viewers understand the need to open ones mind (and heart) to the actual events that are going on around us, and your strength may just help others overcome their own barriers (besides you can lay claim to be the first and maybe only double post at Alien Anomalies).

Chandre, thank you for your compliments (I like them ), you are a sincere writer too, it can be difficult focusing on our individualities when we are surrounded by daily materialistic distactions (Running a family is one too), the thing to remember is that although you have freed your spirit, others do not find it so easy to do so, and with this in mind we have to respect their views (no mater what age they are), it is only when we ask ourselves how we would feel if someone tried to change our viewpiont, that we learn how to free other peoples minds too.
PS...I have left both of your double posts (Sleeping with the Enemy & Re-Imagine) as they are related to each forum, but I may have to edit double posts in future

Xenon, you have a wonderful way with words, sincere, clear and emotive You question the very essence of mankinds greatest fears and hopes.
20 years ago I read a wonderful book by Heinlin called 'Stranger in a Strange Land' and I understood just how alone I was. I have questioned and challenged the 'norm' my entire life, always feeling like an outsider as people just do not perceive reality in the way I do. It's been a long and painful path, one I continue on every day. Having overcome my programming and controls that were forced on me by a repressive educational system, I am driven to try to free the people I care about from the 'matrix'. I have come to realise that this is not easy or perhaps even possible with people older than 30 as the controls are just too deeply embedded and they react with fear and anger to anything that threatens their realities.
I am exploring ways to by-pass the controls in a non-threatening manner - sort of a 'back door' approach to overcome the protective blocks. It's easier on younger people and there is so much evidence being leaked sub-consciously to the masses. A prime example is the recently released movie 'Watchmen', where not only do we see the Colossal Head in Skippers report come to life, but we are given an insight into the scale of this being and a direct link to Mars. You, and I and Papa and many others know we would not react in panic, terror or negatively to a general announcement by the powers-that-be about life in our Solar system. We have probably known the truth at some deep level for our entire lives.
The problem is Joe Wannabee, they did such a good job at brainwashing him into ignoring the obvious facts that I believe they may now be unable to reverse that conditioning even if they wanted to. The church can tell him/her there may be aliens, the government can release reports that UFO's exist, the President can hint at needing a 'Star Wars' protection, photos of faces and mermaids on Mars can be released via the media, movies and TV programmes can start to implant visuals of these facts and still Joe will not accept it ! He/she has been numbed into immediate disbelief when confronted with any of this.
Maybe they are watching us to see how we react and to try to learn from us how best to release this information as they really do not know how to undo what they have done. Maybe they should just ask us for help rather than threatening, intimidating or victimising us. Imagine having free access to images that have not been tampered with, or even better being able to use the technology to look at the targets we choose ! I am sure that all of us working together could come up with some pretty inventive and non-threatening ways to start to release this information to the general public, to bring the rest of our class up to speed !
Wishful thinking I know the reality is so far removed from this idealistic viewpoint that it makes me seem naive. I am not at all. I am always hopeful that I can be surprised by the very people that are trying to keep me repressed. The ones that are manipulating and controlling the images and information being released and hiding the truth from all of us.
Wow, long post. Didn't mean to blab- I just have a lot to say, but there is time enough for that later
