Question by Robert Goerman: Decoding angel DNA…?
When I asked — “Is science impotent when it comes to human and animal encounters with mysterious lights, objects, and OtherWorld beings?” — several emotional replies defended the integrity and purity of “Science.”

Heaven help those innocent eyewitnesses who stumble across UFOs and “aliens” or “monsters” or “ghosts.” There will always be learned “experts” and “men of science” who just know that all these phenomena are delusions or alcohol-related and act accordingly. Like most of us, they demand a logical and rational accounting for every claim and occurrence. Unlike most of us, where no accounting is available, they invent one, with neither investigation nor specific cause. I have named this perpetual reaction by some individuals to the unexplained and unknown the CUTE (Compulsive Urge To Explain) factor. Despite the acronym, ridicule in the name of science is not pretty.
