In a recent text exchange with a fellow contact experiencer, I was asked, “The looming question is: what’s the benefit of Disclosure? Thoughts on that?”
Joseph Burkes MD 2026
Benefits of Disclosure? Here are my thoughts. On an individual level, an end to the worldwide de facto policy of ridicule and denial will be a vindication for every witness who has been chastised for simply describing what happened to them personally. Disclosure would mean an end to the massive campaign of lies and half-truths coming out of the mouths of the so-called “authorities” who have maintained a UFO truth embargo for over three quarters of a century.
On the societal level, the potential benefits will be even more profound. My concern is that our civilization might be entering into a death spiral. Uncontrolled global warming from the burning of fossil fuels leading to climate change will likely cause a massive “die out” from crop failures. This instability could trigger more wars including possibly nuclear ones as nations compete for dwindling natural resources.
I suspect that only a spiritual transformation on a massive scale will allow a course correction. Only the realization that we are one people on one homeland, the planet Earth, will empower us to establish the level of cooperation necessary to deal with the crises that are coming our way.
With the publication of “Beyond UFOs,” the spiritual transformations as the result of contact have been documented. Associated with their contacts, experiencers describe themselves as being more altruistic, more spiritual, but less religious, (following the doctrines of organized religion) more concerned about the environment and less on acquisition of material wealth, etc.
Disclosure will set the stage for the creation of massive social movements that can mobilize the Earth’s population on the basis of global and cosmic unity. Without Disclosure and the end of our ruling elites’ de facto program of ridicule and denial, our contact networks will never have the human and financial resources required to break out of the UFO subculture. This is necessary to build the kind of peace movements and struggles for social and environmental justice that will allow our civilization not only to survive but to thrive.
UAP NON-HUMAN INTELLIGENCES’ IMPACT ON SOCIETY: Additional blogs on the psychosocial/political challenges in the UFO field:
You can’t control a person who wants “no thing.” I suspect that Flying Saucer Intelligences are feared by our planet’s elites because they can’t be controlled by the usual methods applied to the general population. If we start to identify, not with things and thought forms, but rather with universal consciousness, then ultimately, we cannot be controlled either.
Professional science uses the scientific method to study the natural world. This involves carrying out repeated experiments under controlled conditions. There is nothing controllable about the physically and psychically advanced intelligences responsible for Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena. Therefore, the scientific approach is not a good one. I suggest we follow the advice of UFO intelligence analyst Val Germann and employ a “counterintelligence” model to study UFOs.
Until 2017 the UFO subculture existed without broad popular support or well-organized groups calling for an end to the “UFO truth embargo.” This blog analyzes how the absence of leadership contributed to the subculture’s isolation. Fortunately, this situation is changing as organizations with experienced leaders are now emerging to create a broad social movement.
