UFOs Are Just a Myth and Ufologists Are Wrong • With Guest David Halperin

My guest this week was David Halperin, retired religious studies professor and author of INTIMATE ALIEN: The Hidden Story of The UFO. How we interpret eyewitness sightings and alien abduction events is challenged. David makes the argument that none of the reported UFOs or related experiences have anything to do with physical ships or visiting extraterrestrials. That human minds, including historical past traumas and current real world events, cause eyewitness to project onto mundane things like aircraft an imagined visualization and experience. David’s line of thinking is more akin to Jacques Vallée and Carl Jung put together. But he believes it is something more, only he does not know exactly what the UFO enigma is, but makes a good case against traditional ufology. For those who take stock in the Roswell incident or the Betty and Barney Hill abduction case, your convictions may be challenged.

From 1976 through 2000, David taught Jewish history in the Religious Studies Department at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. Now retired from teaching, he lives in North Carolina with his wife Rose. He’s the author of five non-fiction books on Jewish mysticism and messianism, the coming-of-age novel Journal of a UFO Investigator, and now Intimate Alien: The Hidden Story of the UFO.
