William Gill: Steadfast to the End
Gill, who recently passed away at the age of 79, was the main witness of an extraordinary event in 1959, called the Papua, New Guinea Visitations . Gill was the priest at a mission in New Guinea when the territory was still a part of Australia. Gill, along with 37 other witnesses saw a flying saucer in the clouds, with landing gear deployed, and small beings atop the object, affecting some type of repair. This occurred on two different occasions, June 26, and 27. More than once, Gill waved at the aliens, who in turn, waved back at him. Several other acknowledgments were also made. Naturally, the status of these sightings became the target of debunkers, who tried to explain them away as some type of religious experience. Although Gill was a religious man, he strongly rejected this theory. In the 50 years after the famous sightings, he never once changed or altered his story. Kudos to a steadfast and reliable witness whom the debunkers could not touch.

I saw a silver ship twice. The first time it asked me in my head or thought other then my own. If I wanted to die. I thought no to it. It turn torwed’s the back and flow away and made no sound.
Then with acouple of day or a month that it came over the top of the house and it stoped in on the left side of the road. I went under itand looked up. It had a light in the middle of it. I thought it was just a little time and thought if your not going to take me up. Then i’m leaven. I left and went to work. When I thought about it on the way to work. I realized that I probley Stood uder it for 15min’s or so. That is along time for no car to drive by.
Well I no not if they did anything to me but if you have anything to say then please let me know.

Mr. Gill was right to say that this was not a religous experience..being a religous man he would know that the scripts speak of ‘those that are on the Earth, under the Earth, under the ocean and up in the heavens’….all under God. There are so many out there..some friendly, some not. If there were people living on the moon when we went there ,they would still be jumping up and down and talking about the ‘ufo’ that they saw years ago. Is it really that hard to believe when we’ve travelled to another place ourselves?

i never heard of this story before, but very interesting. My biggest concern for a wrongful interpretation would be mass hysteria. Mass hysteria is a strange phenomena. Another possiblity would be a hallucinations by William Gill and the others went along with him. Maybe he ate fish that had something in it. But anyway I like the story, very unusual and interesting. If he did see humans up there, close to the way we look, that opens up some very strange possiblities.
BOINK!
