My thesis on the subject of UFOs

| An important text, but which interests only one French person out of ten thousand | - From a purely phenomenological point of view, the phenomenon, linked to biochemistry, which we call "Life" | tends to become more complex and beyond that to expand its relational field | . We move from the unicellular to the multicellular. Living beings become mobile, creating communication between extremely distant regions of the Earth. I will cite as an example the migratory bird that carries seeds in its intestines, which are protected by a shell, thus avoiding being digested by the bird. Thus, by defecating, a migratory bird can export a plant species thousands of kilometers away. We have extended this ability by creating our own migratory birds, namely, commercial airplanes. Today, the extension of the relational field on a planetary scale is a completed project, since with my mobile phone I can call a correspondent located on the opposite side of the world. | - Therefore, I have proposed the hypothesis that this extension of the relational field is "one of the main goals of Life," including in it the most misunderstood concept: that of consciousness. By saying this, I adopt a | finalist | position, which is heretical with respect to the chaotic thinking of contemporary science, which does not acknowledge that this extension of the relational field is one of the goals of Life. | - I go even further, by developing what is a simple belief (all thoughts are organized systems of beliefs, including mine). Therefore, I lay my cards on the table by stating my own beliefs, without hiding behind any kind of smoke screen. I say that I believe the universe is "dual," in the sense that it has a | physical | part and a | metaphysical | part, and that these two entities | co-evolve | . It is only a belief, and in my book I hasten to add that I have no model to propose and that I do not intend to play the role of a savior guru. I simply think, I believe that Life is "guided," which does not make me join the ranks of fundamentalist Christians or adhere literally to the biblical description of the creation. It does not make me reject in toto the Darwinian mechanisms either. I say, I think, I believe (and by doing so I adhere to an idea I found in the Ummo texts) that the metaphysical world sends "mutagenic orders" which trigger mutations within living species, | where a Darwinian selection process then takes place | . | - From this perspective, according to which the Living is guided, in order to allow the unlimited extension of the relational field of the living, the problem of interstellar communications immediately emerges. It is clear that the biological world will never produce a migratory bird with wings so large that they allow it to cross light-years. If such a journey is possible, it can only be accomplished through sophisticated technology. Let us note that man is not the only one with technology, with the use of non-biological materials. Many animals possess a rudimentary technology. I think, I believe that the appearance of technology, in the hands of a living species: man, is part of the "plan," of this project of extending the relational field of the world of life, and of the world of consciousness, which may also have a form of fragmentation, of | localization | . We find here the classic position "what is above is like what is below". Thus, and it is again a | belief | , stimulated by reading the Ummo texts. I think, | I believe, I hypothesize | that there would be local metaphysics, meta-spheres, or "noospheres" (in Greek, noos means mind) linked to planetary systems. The implementation of interstellar travel would not only allow biospheres to communicate, to | marry | , but also noospheres to do the same. | - I present another belief, mentioned by Anne Dambricourt, immediately condemned: I do not think that hominization was gradual. I believe that all those diagrams that can be seen in science museums, which suggest the gradualism of evolution, from primate to man, are false. This aligns with the idea of "guiding the living." There is no gradualism, the pillar of Darwinian thought, but rather significant qualitative jumps. Hence this general, abnormal, and significant abundance of missing links. | - The sudden mutation that transforms a pre-hominid into a human being, at the same time creates the being who can develop a | technology | , a non-biological mode of evolution. Remember the famous idea of Leroy-Gouran: "Standing upright frees the hands." Human evolution then becomes explosive. Man invades all ecological niches, is equipped with an artificial skin that allows him to reach the North Pole, an artificial respiration system that allows him to outdo fish, and artificial wings that allow him to do the same as birds. Even more, thanks to reaction propulsion systems, used for millions of years by other living beings such as octopuses, he ventures where no bird has ever been able to rise: into space, and sets foot on its satellite: the Moon. At the same time, the weapons he acquires allow him to dominate, crush, or even make all other competing living species disappear, except for microbes. Having become the king of the Earth, he also imposes himself as the absolute predator, consuming biomass in all its forms for his own benefit. | - Another observation: this technological explosion has negative consequences: the degradation of the habitat by pollution, and the risk, in absurd wars, using oversized weapons of mass destruction, of failing the plan, resulting in a tragic return to the starting point. The only mechanism that allows avoiding this tragic idea: moral consciousness, the awareness that the human species forms a whole, and not a patchwork of ethnies in constant, merciless competition with each other. This leads to a functional definition of consciousness: | It is the ability to question the consequences of one's actions. | - New step of belief: I think that this moral consciousness is a behavioral attribute "to prevent the plan from failing." Many evolution specialists are surprised that whenever a living species is endowed with a new morphological, functional attribute, it also acquires the corresponding behavioral attribute, which allows it to control it, more or less well, in an attempt to avoid hypertrophic deviations, the "excess of purposes" that put the species in danger. This is what these people will say when they write that "Nature, in its infinite wisdom, has endowed the species with the ability to...." I think that consciousness, this confused notion of good (doing) and evil (doing), is just an attribute, with an additional degree of freedom compared to animals, allowing choice, invention, beyond a blind following of pre-programmed instinctual rules. | - By gathering all these elements, I arrive at a vision of the planetary situation as follows. Since the emergence of nuclear energy, ...
