Abduction Guinea Pigs

Monday January 23, 2006
UFOYou all know who Budd Hopkins is, and if you don't , you should. To be direct, he is one of the highest regarded researchers of the alien abduction phenomena. I was really thrilled to see his reply to the recent outlandish claims by Dr. Susan Clancy, whose book made a lot of folks in Ufology more than a little upset.

In his articleThe Faith-Based Science Of Susan Clancy Hopkins really lets his hair down, and lips loose. This is a must read if you are interested in the least in the abduction mystery. Hopkins points out that the selection of subjects of the study was not based on any kind of scientific search. Clancy was taking anyone who even felt they may have been abducted with nothing more that a strange mark on their body, or who were hearing voices. Hopkins also makes the claim that very few true abductees will come forward for testing any. This is a theory that I whole heartedly agree with. Give this one a read, there's some good info here.
