> The mere appearance of being normal doesn't mean someone is normal. One would infer from the above expressed opinion that you may have made up your mind on the subject. Back in my teens and twenties I recall many occasions where I felt terrified over a personal suspicion that I might not be normal. Fortunately for me I eventually became less anxious over the matter when I began to realize that trying to fit "normalcy" largely comprised futile attempts of trying to mimic the boundary definitions of others. Somehow I managed to survive the onslaught and have, so far, made it into my 60s. ;-) In the meantime, there's this guy named Simon Parks, and apparently he believes he has had numerous intimate relations with aliens. To infer that anyone believing that this is actually happening to himself. to infer that to profess such a belief is indicative that something is abnormal about him is, in my opinion, more of an indication of where boundaries of the beholder's disbelief reside. It's seem pretty obvious to me that Simon Parks doesn't gives a fig that many might consider his belief in having had intimate relations with "aliens" as something that must be abnormal about himself. What I have taken from Simon's alleged alien encounter is the apparent fact that he seems to has learned how to live with himself. Just that in itself is a major accomplishment.
