(B (JReport on the 9th Annual International UFO Congress Convention
(B (J
(B (J... Daniel Sheehan: Today he is General Counsel to Joe Firmage$B".(Js
(B (JInternational Space Sciences Organization, and he heads the Strategic
(B (JInstitute to Define a New Paradigm. He wants to integrate the fact of the ET
(B (Jpresence into all classical fields of human knowledge: Cosmology, Theology,
(B (JPhilosophy, Physical Science, Psychology, Ontology, Epistemology, Human
(B (JTeleology, etc. He also wins the prize for the presentation with the longest
(B (Jtitle; "The Probability of a Public Encounter with ET Intelligence in the
(B (J21st century and the Public Policy Implications of Such ET Contact on
(B (JAmerican Foreign Policy, American Military Policy, and American National
(B (JSecurity Policy."

(B (JSheehan represented Dr. John Mack, chair of Harvard$B".(Js Dept. of Clinical
(B (JPsychology, when the University tried to fire him after he published
(B (JAbduction; Human Encounters with Aliens. Mack tried to publish an article on
(B (Jhis research in the New England Journal of Medicine, but the editorial board
(B (Jwould not even consider it, so he wrote the book. Sheehan, funded by
(B (JLawrence Rockefeller, resolved the case against Mack quickly. In 1987 he
(B (Jbecame Chief Counsel for the Jesuit National HQ. They asked him to get UFO
(B (Jinformation from the Vatican. While seeking information about Carter$B".(Js 21
(B (JJan 77 UFO sighting from Bush, then Director of the CIA, Bush said that a
(B (Jcongressional committee would have to ask the Library of Congress to
(B (Jdeclassify the information for a report to the President. He once asked the
(B (JWashington Inter-religious Council staff to consider the UFO/ET presence and
(B (Jwas met with total silence. He was asked by the Gorbachev Foundation to try
(B (Jto clarify the UFO/ET facts that pertain to public policy. He hosted a round
(B (Jtable at the October 1999 State of the World Forum that included 24 people,
(B (Jsuch as; John Mack, Depak Chopra, Jean Houston, Joe Firmage, Hal Puthof,
(B (JWink Franklin of IONS, Rick Tarnis, Sam Keen, etc. They even appeared before
(B (Jthe entire group of 1000 world leaders. Sheehan said that many members of
(B (Jthe human family are not properly prepared for open contact with ET. He sees
(B (Jtwo major risks; some covert military group may be preparing to engage
(B (Jmilitarily and some people may be so unprepared they may become totally
(B (Jsubservient. Neither is appropriate.
(B (J
(B (JSheehan mentioned 12 separate premises that we can discuss this year, such
(B (Jas:
(B (J
(B (J1. We should accept the 1979 Congressional Report to Carter saying that
(B (JET exists. There are two to six highly intelligent, technological species in
(B (Jour galaxy.
(B (J2. If there had been contact with our government, they would not have
(B (Jtold us.
(B (J3. People have different paradigms depending on their worldviews:
(B (Jauthoritarian, reactionary, conservative, moderate, liberal, progressive, or
(B (Jmystical. You can$B".(Jt convince the first three to not treat ET as a threat.
(B (J
(B (J
(B (JThen he mentioned eight possible origins of UFOs with his assessment of
(B (Jprobability; 51% ET civilization either positive or negative, 40% super
(B (Jsecret government or private contact, 5% PSY-OPS operation, 2% spiritual
(B (Jphenomenon, 1% time travel, and 1% either extra-dimensional manifestations
(B (Jor projections into another reality. He said we are at a special time in
(B (Jhistory. Dr. Fugiama announced that the western civilization has a short
(B (Jtime to fulfill its promises to the people of the world or they will look
(B (Jelsewhere. Then he mentioned the high level debate between Zbigniew
(B (JBrzezinski, cofounder of the Trilateral Commission, and conservative Samuel
(B (JP. Huntington, former Editor of Foreign Affairs. He closed by saying we must
(B (Jshow ET the major qualities of humanity. We need a public interest group
(B (Jwith chairs for the ET presence, the environment, peace, etc. And we must
(B (Jstop attacking each other$B".(Js positions. He received great applause.
