Messengers of Deception

Know your Vacuum Cleaners from your Little Aunts. Have you got one of these?



“I believe there is a very real UFO problem. I have also come to suspect that it is being manipulated for political ends. And the data suggest that the manipulators may be human beings with a plan for social control.”
— Jacques Vallée, Messengers of Deception.

That book is warning to people not to follow anyone who claims to be able to communicate with UFOs, angels, or join UFO cults where leaders claim to have answers on UFOs.

"Hoaxes are very important. They can change the world. A well-fashioned fake is more convincing than messy reality. The world may well be changed by such a fabrication."
— Jacques Vallée

"Instead of looking at the movie screen, what I want to do is to turn around and look the other way. When we look the other way what we see is a little hole at the top of the wall with some light coming out. That’s where I want to go. I want to steal the key to the projectionist’s booth, and then, when everybody has gone home, I want to break in."
— Jacques Vallée

State of the U(fo)nion

With the appearance of Jacques Vallee amongst the panelists at Sol, I am left to wonder if he is reminded of his past work, specifically 1979’s Messengers of Deception. This book, more focused on the dynamics of UFO belief than the phenomena itself, sees Vallee reach uncomfortable conclusions about where the culture was being led when left to its own devices on the fringes. He writes:

"I don't think we should expect salvation from the sky. I believe there is a very real UFO problem. I have also come to suspect that it is being manipulated for political ends. And the data suggest that the manipulators may be human beings with a plan for social control. Such plans have been made before, and have succeeded. History shows that having a cosmic mythology as part of such a plan is not always necessary. But it certainly helps."

Vallee also is concerned about another development seen in the rise of UFO religions: "In the absence of serious, unbiased research on the subject, the belief in the imminence of UFO ‘contact’ undermines the image of Man as a master of his own destiny. Is this concern not at risk of coming to pass—albeit through Western military structures as opposed to extraterrestrial or foreign means? Are large swaths of people not allowing themselves to be subjugated by the authority of imperial powers—entities that have rarely had the greater public interest in mind?

Vallée's 4 books from 1969 to 1991 strongly argues the ET hypothesis does NOT account for all the strange & weird cases and reports within the UFO phenomena. Vallée donated all his papers & notes to Rice University in 2017 but stipulated that it cannot be opened til 2027. Tick-tock.

Note: Once you start to research the UFO characters from the 50s & 60s the UFO phenomena becomes less interesting and the spooks, authors, charlatans & religious cult leaders much more interesting. Most everything on the UFO phenomena & lore that has come out in the 21st century is garbage. But, that's just me. "UFO Disclosure" was started by Lawrence Rockefeller back in 1992 with his protege Steven Greer and several others. Back then things were still normal unlike the past 8 years.
