Why or why not? I’m talking about all things outside the scope of what we would consider “normal” to humans. For example, Bigfoot, ghosts, faeries, mermaids, trolls, Mothman, etc. You get the picture. I ask this because as we know, long before it was culturally acceptable (and we’re only barely there now) to have open discussions about aliens and ufos, people were reporting seeing or having experiences with them. but they were for the large part ridiculed. Will we reach a point where naysayers and deniers of such beings are viewed much like flatearthers are viewed today? Seems like a stretch, I know, but there are plenty of people now who believe that all ufo/aup footage is fake and that Earth beings are the only beings- and nothing will convince them otherwise.
I personally believe that we’re nearing a time in the evolution of the human consciousness when people en masse in the next few years or sooner will understand that life in this world is anything but “normal” and to expect the unexpected. Not all will feel that way, and their realities will reflect that. But for those that are curious and open, I believe we’ll start seeing more and more evidence that we’re not alone, not only in the universe, but on this planet. Thoughts? Should we be starting to look at our world/reality differently now, especially if there’s a possibility that all of these things are somehow connected?
