<p><strong> What is the Truth about Alien Abductions &#8211; UFO Abductions </strong><br />
 An entire book can be devoted to the phenomenon of alien abductions that have been recorded across many countries at different times. A study conducted by Dr. John Mack and published in the Harvard University Gazette concluded that the abduction from 800 cases were made by mentally stable persons across vast segments of the population with no signs of delusion or any chronic tendency to lie and fabricate stories, much less any sign of mental illness.</p>
<p>His conclusion is not unique as studies conducted by other respected psychologists and psychiatrists revealed no aberrant mental health conditions in the people claiming to have been abducted by aliens.</p>
<p>Could they be telling the truth? And what was the motivation? Coincidence over thousands of cases? It had to be more than that.</p>
<p>Abductors were aliens though of varying types described ay humanoid reptiles, greys, non-distinguishable human form and energy beings.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s no demographic concentration even as aliens prefer younger people below the age of 40 as most abduction have a reproductive focus that are considered healthier at a younger age. </p>
<p>There have been similar reports from children.</p>
<p>The abduction generally describe a sequence of events starting from being captured and forcibly taken into an alien space craft, intensive and often invasive medical and physical examination conducted by aliens, a conference with the abductors, a loss of time perceptive, return to the place where they were abducted and an aftermath consisting of a profound awareness of the universe and the supernatural coupled with some post traumatic coping with the experience from a social perspective as loved ones seldom believe their stories.</p>
<p>What makes the phenomenon arresting is that most alien abductees revealed fascinating details under hypnosis that would not be possible if the revelation were concocted or fabricated under a conscious state of mind.</p>
<p>The precise number of abductees may never be ascertained as many prefer to remain silent of their experience. </p>
<p>There have been about 1,700 abduction claims since it was documented in the 50s. The most famous was the Antonio Villas Boas case in 1957 and the Hill Abduction of 1961 which were the first &#8220;canonical&#8221; cases that established the template for later abduction cases that would rarely deviate from it. Since then, the phenomenon has gained widespread interest with a TV film Betty and Barney Hill Abduction in 1975.</p>
<p>For sure, as there are believers and people with an open mind about the phenomenon, there are skeptics who consider abductees as suffering from some temporary psychological disturbance like schizophrenia, parasomnia or epileptic seizure.</p>
<p>Others attribute the commonality of abducted cases with previous similar abductions from devils and demons common throughout history when spaceships never figured in the pop culture consciousness of their times. The central abduction elements are there with just the abductor personality changed. Abductions seem to see no end in sight prompting government agencies to start looking for intelligent life in the universe with giant antennas.</p>
<p>There is a website that describes Alien Abductions and numerous other topics of interest such as conspiracies, secret technology, ufos, secret weapons research, bible end times predictions and many other such subjects, this website is called: The Great Deception and it may be found at this url: http://www.great-deception.com</p>

<p><strong><i>Question by fg</i>: Do you believe in all these stories that circulate about &#8220;alien abduction&#8221;?</strong><br />
There are so many people throughout the world who claim to have been &#8220;abducted&#8221; and returned by aliens, could there be any truth to any of it. Of course some of them may be &#8220;out of it&#8221;, but is it possible that thousands of individuals could be making up these stories? On the other hand, why is there never any physical evidence of these encounters?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Prepare to have your opinion about bats changed forever.</p>
<p>Meet Lil&#8217; Drac, a <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=18271X761518&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fen.wikipedia.org%2Fwiki%2FCarollia&sref=rss" target="_hplink">short-tailed fruit bat</a> taken in by <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=18271X761518&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.batworld.org%2F&sref=rss" target="_hplink">Bat World Sanctuary</a>, an organization <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=18271X761518&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.batworld.org%2Four-mission%2F&sref=rss" target="_hplink">with a mission</a> that includes promoting the protection and conservation of wild bats.</p>
<p><strong>VIDEO BELOW</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=18271X761518&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.batworld.org%2Flil-drac%2F&sref=rss" target="_hplink">According to the organization</a>, this little guy was abandoned by his mother who was traumatized when a zoo she was living in closed and she had to be moved.</p>
<p>Because he&#8217;s not being raised by his mother, the volunteers stroke his stomach with a cotton swab to simulate the feeling of a mother&#8217;s tongue. And as you&#8217;ll see in the video below, he&#8217;s learned to suck milk through a small piece of foam.</p>
<p>There have been other notable rescues of orphaned bats this year.</p>
<p>Last month, <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=18271X761518&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.huffingtonpost.com%2F2011%2F11%2F26%2Faustralia-fruit-bat-orphans-saved_n_1100252.html&sref=rss" target="_hplink">nearly 100 orphaned baby fruit bats</a> (a different species than Lil&#8217; Drac) were rescued in Australia after their parents had died from February&#8217;s <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=18271X761518&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.huffingtonpost.com%2F2011%2F02%2F02%2Faustralia-cyclone-yasi-video_n_817693.html&sref=rss" target="_hplink">Cyclone Yasi</a>.</p>
<p>And in January, the Australian Bat Clinic and Wildlife Trauma Centre <a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=18271X761518&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.huffingtonpost.com%2F2011%2F01%2F17%2Fbaby-bats-rescued_n_806822.html&sref=rss" target="_hplink">rescued another 130 orphaned bats</a> whose parents had been killed in flooding on the country&#8217;s Gold Coast.</p>
<p><em>Note:<a href="http://redirectingat.com?id=18271X761518&xs=1&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cdc.gov%2Frabies%2Fexposure%2Fanimals%2Fbats.html&sref=rss" target="_hplink"> If you see a bat</a>, don&#8217;t touch it &#8212; contact animal control.</em></p>
