Lets take a little break from politics and have us a real atheist conversation.

Personally, I'm open to the idea of the existence of supernatural phenomena, and I believe mainstream religions are actually complicated incomplete stories full of misinterpretations, misunderstandings, and half-truths.

Basically, I think that these stories are not as simple and straightforward as they seem to be to religious people. I feel like there is a lot more to them. Concluding that all these stories are just made up or came out of nowhere is kind of hard for me.

I am literally saying why. They did not verify them to make sure it's not special effects. They didn't because there's no way to do that. I can tell you that as someone who has worked in video production and post-production for over 20 years.

It is simply a lie. They never did that. Looking up "Pentagon UFO footage" will not make it possible to verify such a thing. Also, I happen to know what you're talking about and they never said anything about verifying they were all not special effects because, again, there's no way to do that.
