TIME: Roswell Really Happened, Says Former CIA Agent 2012/07/11
A 35-year agency veteran says he knows what went down in the New Mexico desert 65 years ago — and coincidentally has a new book to promote.
What happened at Roswell 65 years ago? It may be a conspiracy theorist’s greatest mystery. Now, one former CIA agent says he has information that could solve it.
On July 8, 1947, most reports agree, something landed in Roswell, N.M. At first the government said the object was a “flying disk,” but it quickly changed its story the next day to a “weather balloon.” For a few years, people bought that answer, but eventually some started asking questions. Some people say it was Stalin sending a message to the U.S. as the Cold War kicked off in earnest. Others say Roswell was the first contact between human beings and extraterrestrials. Still others maintain that it really was just a weather balloon. Now ex–CIA agent Chase Brandon says he knows what really happened.
“It was not a damn weather balloon,” Brandon told the Huffington Post. “It was a craft that clearly did not come from this planet.” The 35-year agency veteran was a covert agent involved in international terrorism, counterinsurgency, global narcotics trafficking and weapons smuggling, and spent 10 years as the agency’s first entertainment and publication industries liaison.
Sometime near the end of his service, while he was the entertainment liaison, Brandon walked into the CIA headquarters in Langley, Va., and found something he did not expect in a restricted section of old documents called the Historical Intelligence Collection.
One of the boxes had a single word written on it: Roswell. “I took the box down, lifted the lid up, rummaged around inside it, put the box back on the shelf, and said, ‘My God, it really happened!’” Brandon recounted.
The former agent reported seeing some “written material and some photographs” but will not reveal what else he saw. “But it absolutely, for me, was the single validating moment that everything I had believed"...

I'll believe it when I see it on the front page of reddit.

LOL.
The thing I don't get about Roswell is that if there really was an alien, why would they keep it a secret? You can hide the technology to make sure other nations don't get a hold of it and there's no reason to keep news that another being from space came to the planet hidden from 99.99% of the population.

They probably put that box there to mess with the new guys. There's probably another one that says "JFK Assassination" and has a picture of Nixon and George HW Bush on the Grassy Knoll in it.

Religion would find a way to adapt.
It always does...
Hell, even my dad told me a couple of years ago that if an alien spaceship were to land in our backyard he would still believe in Christianity. :-\

If he's not even providing docs or anything what the fuck will be beyond the first chapter?

No it wouldn't. Any number of obvious facts should have "destroyed religion" but people still believe in the man in the clouds and the evil dude under the Earth's crust.

What if the aliens believe in some form of God?

i always just figured we'd be too boring for any beings capable of creating intergalactic spaceships to even bother coming here

Speak for yourself. Today I harpooned cantaloupe with a carrot. Aliens would adore me.

With all the shit our species gets into, we're really anything BUT boring.

More like we're perfect trolling material. Aliens are up there right now laughing at us freak out over crop cycles and flying discs in the sky.
