MUFON UPDATE Part 2

This is a follow up to my earlier blog updating my communications with MUFON and its executive director Jan Harzen. In my communications with Jan, I explained to him why I’ve bothered to go through all of the trouble, including making a lot of trouble, to get MUFON to participate in examining the Billy Meier UFO case. The reason is simple, the more people who can become aware of the Meier case and investigate it for themselves, the more it may still be possible to alter some of the otherwise unalterable situations and consequences of unwise actions set in motion by human beings for a very long time. In simple terms, as I told him, I’m trying to do my part to prove the prophecies wrong.

People like Jan and I aren’t the ones who will most likely face the worst of what may be on the horizon. It’s our children, grandchildren, etc. And as meaningless as these words may seem to many people now, it will be those who will long survive us who may ultimately know and judge whether they were accurate and, if so, why so many people didn’t take the time to just look through the proverbial telescope…should they indeed fail to do so. Hopefully, as a result of Jan and MUFON’s participation, many more people than may otherwise be reached will indeed participate and make moot such dramatically phrased concerns, as even greater numbers of people participate in the examination of Billy Meier’s evidence and information than have been …allowed to up until now. After all, should the assistance from the Plejaren, Meier and the prophets of old finally reach its broadest intended audience – the people of Earth – a great many questions and difficulties can be settled and a great many new positive directions and opportunities can thereby be taken and created.

As you can see from Jan’s request in his P.S. below, our correspondence is being shared with his knowledge and permission. I’ll start with the high points that resulted from our last conversation on Tuesday, June 24, 2014. Jan agreed to:

1. Promptly post information on the Billy Meier UFO case on the MUFON site as among the “Famous UFO Cases” with commonly posed objections, questions, etc. (No implied endorsements, etc.)
2. Let me, as the authorized representative for the Meier case, provide answers and information to MUFON in response to any of the issues MUFON lists in reference to the case, as opposed to MUFON’s using other opinions to address the online questions, challenges, etc. I will also do my best to answer any all and questions and challenges from MUFON members as well. MUFON will be welcome to post these exchanges as well.

I assume that the above will be posted by the beginning of the coming week (June 30).

In our three conversations, which totaled over two hours altogether, Jan also told me that he asked 10 people at MUFON about the Billy Meier case and all of them said that it was a “hoax”. He asked them why they thought so. None of them had an answer…or interest in finding one. I would imagine that these people were among the ones listed here:

Functional Directors

Board of Directors

Science Review Board

Therefore, all MUFON and UFOCI members, as well as skeptics, scientists, etc., are invited to submit any and all questions and challenges about the Billy Meier UFO contact case, its evidence, information, etc., to me. I will not only respond to the questions but also forward the correspondence to Jan Harzen so that MUFON’s 3,000 international members and its executives, listed above, can review and address the information.

Here’s our recent email exchange:

Michael,

Here is what we discussed. Sorry for the delay in getting this to you. We’ve been really busy getting ready for the 2014 Symposium.

“MUFON’s mission is the “Scientific Study of UFOs for the benefit of Humanity.” One of our primary goals is to collect first hand sighting reports from the public and investigate them to determine the true nature of the UFO phenomenon. In doing so we encourage our field investigators to keep an open mind while collecting and investigating all the facts surrounding a given case before making a final decision on the case disposition. MUFON does not render opinions on historical cases, or cases that were not originally filed with MUFON, but we encourage independent investigators and the public to use the same thoughtful approach in evaluating all the facts of a given case before forming an opinion one way or the other on its validity.”

P.S. Please let me know if you plan to send this anywhere as I’d like to get a note out to my State Director’s before you do. I will also do my best to curtail any negative comments on the case from MUFON, just understand that I am dealing with volunteers, not employees, and everyone has a right to their opinion. Also, I appreciate your promise to do the same in regard to MUFON. We are all here trying to solve the same mystery.

God Speed,

Jan C. Harzan

Jan,

Thanks for getting back to me.

I have a lot of trouble with a mission statement from the major UFO investigating organization that cites “Scientific Study of UFOs for the benefit of Humanity” but at the same time eliminates “historical cases” that are still ongoing for 72+ years, that eliminates cases that weren’t “originally filed with MUFON” and relies on “volunteers” in the decision making process. How are such unscientific protocols supposed to benefit humanity?

How is the truth supposed to come out if it must be subordinated to arbitrary, unscientific and unprofessional considerations? If MUFON relies on “volunteers” – with no requirements as to their scientific qualifications – to make historical scientific decisions and determinations then not only is there no scientific validity to such a process but it only helps to marginalize and relegate the entire field of study to an amateurish status at best and at worst to a very suspect, possibly intentionally disinforming one in the eyes of people who are used to the highest scientifically based research standards.

It’s inconsistencies like these that quite honestly give the perception that this isn’t at all credible.

Since my impression of you from our conversations is that you’re a sincere, highly principled person, I’m sure you can appreciate my concern that MUFON’s mission statement is drastically inconsistent with, and even in opposition to, those principles.

It was my understanding that, starting this week, the case would be opened for discussion on the MUFON website, with my participating in providing information and answering any and all challenges. Has that changed?

Please make sure to read my new blog and the responses to it:

Skeptics: “We were wrong, the Billy Meier UFO case is authentic”

As you can see, it isn’t negative comments that are the issue, it’s unsubstantiated, unqualified, irresponsible comments that have contributed to hiding the truth from humanity.

As you can also see, I indicated that I would update everyone regarding our process. So of course I’ll post this as part of that process. I think you and I both agree that the truth will set you free. So I for one will keep everyone updated on our conversation and I’ll also invite any and all MUFON members to join in the discussion on my blog as well. But certainly I hope that the discussion will proceed on the MUFON site.

Best,

Michael Horn

NOTE: Jan seems like a sincere person and I want keep a positive tone to the conversation and comments. It’s more important to me to find common values than to agree about beliefs.

Since we agree on the importance of finding the truth then let’s not settle for anything less than it and the best means of determining it. I’ve expressed my concerns in my email response to Jan and now I look forward to proceeding and hopefully finding that those concerns were unwarranted.
