Dear friends,
There was a recent post on Facebook concerning extra-terrestrial life
forms among us and how they have contacted certain people. Among them is
a Steven Greer, who is the director of the Disclosure Project, which
seems to claim that the government and

Hi Mike,
I follow news from Greer as I am a believer in extraterrestrials, but from the
videos I saw of him and his activities I am almost sure he is not a bahá'í.
We (common people) have no way to prove his claims, I think the evidence is
persuasive but not enough

Dear Mike,
Mark Foster has been following this guy. If we can bring Mark out of
occultation, he might be able to tell us something but his description
to me was the same as yours.
warmest, Susan

My understanding is that he is still on the membership list.

Susan,
I doubt he is a bahá'í, if he is I'd be positively impressed that he was not
removed from the rolls because of his political activities. How does he faced
some radical bahá'ís hungry to punish anyone who deviate a hair from the
official view and practice,

I believe Mark checked and found he was still enrolled.

I never looked for his religious background, never imagine he was related to
the Bahá'í Faith in any sense.
The main questions here are: Is he lying or not? Did he find conclusive
evidence about aliens visiting earth or not?

Greer's CSETI organization should not be confused with the older SETI
Institute, which a number of Baha'is are involved with. They permit their home
computers to be accessed via the internet to function as part of a cluster that

What about the image of the Faith? I think Dr. Steven Greer is not just a
human talking, if is a bahá'í then there are some problems. The main
problem is that he is not exercising his profession so many would see him
profiting with lies, and imagine if internauts

I would agree with both you and Hasan Elias. Of course this is
particularly unfortunate, since he drags the Name of the Faith down in
the mud with him. Unfortunately, there are always folks like this
around. I pray the Faith becomes well-enough known so that nutters

Hi Mike,
The first link doesn't work (need suscription, I will not suscribe), the second

of course is somewhat bizarre but not so far from average.

Hmmm. I got to the page through a Google search. Not sure why it's not working.
It comes from an old Delphi forum called planet bahai. The poster claims that

As one pundit once said, with tongue in cheek, the proof that there's

Well put!
