   SUBJECT: Alien Abductions by Dr Karla Turner                 FILE: UFO1017   
      
   PART 3   
           
        A regression session was arranged, and in the course of the   
   hypnosis, he was asked to look at that childhood experience. What he   
   recalled was an abduction in which he and his grandmother were taken   
   to a spacecraft in the company of reptilian aliens. He remembered the   
   aliens telling his grandmother that they were interested in learning   
   about her knowledge of medicinal herbs.   
      
        And they offered to exchange medical information of their own.   
      
        They gave the boy and the grandmother a liquid to drink,   
   explaining that it was beneficial and would make the grandmother   
   feel young and attractive again.  So both of them drank the liquid,   
   and the man remembered seeing his grandmother indeed looking much   
   younger.  That was the extent of his recollection.   
      
        Both he and Ms. Bartholic, who was conducting the regression,   
   were puzzled by this, because there was nothing in the episode to   
   account for the guilt he had felt about the grandmother's death.  So   
   Ms. Bartholic deepened the man's trance level and asked him to look   
   at it again, with much clearer vision.  And what he then recalled   
   was much more disturbing.

        That must have been the wrong thing to say, because the   
   reptilian became very angry and threatened her.  "You will die for   
   that!" he told her, and the two people were returned to the bedroom   
   from which they'd been taken.  The next morning, the grandmother   
   told the little boy that the devil had been there the night before,   
   and that was when she insisted upon being taken home.  And, as it   
   turned out, she did die immediately thereafter.   
      
        This, then, was the cause of the man's lifelong sense of guilt   
   about her death.           CENSORED  (2)                    , and her   
   death had followed shortly after.  But none of this story would have   
   emerged if Ms. Bartholic had done as most investigators do and   
   stopped the regression after uncovering the story about the exchange   
   of medicinal knowledge.   
      
        There are other cases in our files that show a similar deception   
   at work in the initial hypnotic recall.  We cannot trust that first   
   memory, it is clear, for like so much else in the abduction   
   experience, there may well be further maskings of events.   
      
        Before we allow ourselves to believe in the benevolence of the   
   alien interaction, we should ask, do enlightened beings need to use   
   the cover of night to perform good deeds?  Do they need to paralyze   
   us and render us helpless to resist?  Do angels need to steal our   
   fetuses?  Do they need to manipulate our children's genitals and   
   probe our rectums? Are fear, pain and deception consistent with high   
   spiritual motives?   
      
      
   Encounter Phenomena Defy "Set Pattern"; by Karla Turner.   
      
        It is a myth that alien abductions of humans follow a set   
   pattern or agenda.  Perhaps the best-known proponent of this theory   
   is Budd Hopkins, who in his books made the genetics and cross-   
   breeding scenario familiar to the public.  Yet when you read back   
   through those books, you'll notice that several of the alien   
   encounters seem to have very little apparent connection to an   
   interest in breeding or DNA.  And even Hopkins, in the past couple   
   of years, has had to expand his theory to include a definite alien   
   interest in some other things, such as pleasure and pain in humans.   
      
        Other well-known UFO researchers also harbor restrictive   
   theories about the abduction phenomenon.  Jacques Vallee, David   
   Jacobs, Whitley Strieber, Brad Steiger, John Lear, Raymond Fowler,   
   Jenny Randles, Kevin Randle, John Keel and other writers hold a   
   diversity of intelligent, often ingenious, theories, yet each makes   
   the same error.  They ignore parts of the abductions evidence--   
   whatever details don't support their ideas.   
      
   INADEQUATE THEORIES.   
      
        Yet it must be clear that any present theory which cannot   
   account for all the known evidence is not acceptable.  At best, it   
   can be misleading, especially for victims of abductions who turn to   
   these prominent researchers seeking answers.   
      
        A case in point occurred during a conversation I had with a   
   prominent researcher in 1989.  In his lectures, this researcher   
   always said that he had certain ways of testing the validity of   
   potential new abduction cases, and one of those ways was the   
   presence of particular scars on the victims' bodies.  I questioned   
   him about a different kind of scar, one which I knew often appeared   
   on abductees of my own acquaintance, and the researcher denied that   
   such a mark showed up in his cases.   
        "Are you sure?" I asked incredulously.  "This mark is pretty   
   common around here, and I'd think it would show up in other places,   
   too.  In fact, I know it has.   
        "No," he insisted, shaking his head, "the only marks I find are   
   like the ones I've already described."   
        "And this other mark hasn't shown up at all?" I asked.   
        "No," he repeated.   
        "Not even once?" I persisted.   
        "Well," he said reluctantly, lowering his voice, "there have   
   been a couple of instances.  That child I talked about tonight, she   
   had two of those marks, and I think there was another case. But   
   they're so rare that I have to ignore them.  When you have two   
   hundred cases with Scar A and only two cases with Scar B, you go   
   with numbers."   
      
        And that was the message he delivered, to an audience where   
   anxious abductees were made to wonder if their anomalous marks meant   
   anything after all, or if, as so many of their friends seemed to   
   think, they were delusions of a troubled mind.   
      
   'NO SINGLE PATTERN'.   
      
        In truth, however, although there are recurrent events in the   
   abduction phenomenon, there is no single pattern or structure.  And   
   until we know what all the events mean, we can't afford to ignore any   
   of them.   
      
        What is one to make, for instance, of an ET-human encounter in   
   which two of the four aliens assisted the abductee in preparing a   
   roast for dinner?  Granted, other events occurred in this case, but   
   the dinner was indeed cooked, served and eaten by the abductee's   
   family less than two hours after the ETs departed.   
      
        Other details of this encounter included the manipulation of the   
   abductee's neck, "for the purpose of instruction," and a discussion   
   of genetically-stored memories and knowledge that can be tapped open   
   in humans.  But there was no medical exam, no cross-breeding   
   activity, and no warnings of coming catastrophe, all of which are   
   events that have been used to construct abduction theories.  I know   
   this to be true, because it happened to me.   
      
   HUMAN DUPLICATES.   
      
        Another anomalous event involves the duplication or replacement   
   of the human by an alien counterpart.  In one instance, a young man   
   and his fiancee were in their car when a "shimmering force" enveloped   
   him.  He passed out, but moments later he began to move, acting and   
   talking entirely different. His fiancee became terrified when he   
   tried to drag her out into the dark back yard, where he told her   
   "Something wants to see you there."  And only when a friend drove   
   into the yard did the young man return to normal, with no memory of   
   his aberrant behavior during the past ten minutes.   
      
        Under hypnotic regression, the fiancee described the young man   
   as being kept in the car while the "other one" took his form and   
   tried to control her.  She called the "other one" a "hologram" and   
   consistently referred to it as "it," not "him." In fact, she said   
   she struggled to get away from "it" and back to the car where "the   
   real" young man was still waiting.   
      
        Under separate regression, the young man recalled his version of   
   the evening and said that at a certain point he was "turned off" and   
   "unplugged," yet he couldn't say what sort of power was then   
   operating his body.
