In research circles, this is called 'negative deduction/reasoning'. That is to say, 'I know what it is not, but I do not know what it is'. Evidence relies on positive deduction, which, obviously, tells you what the sample, item, object, individual is/are. The problem that UFO research has is that it relies entirely on negative deduction, which is why it is not taken seriously by the other scientific disciplines. |
Research in any facet of academia is usually proven innacurate years after the research was conducted. Sometimes science needs to take a back seat to common sense. Look at the number of planets in the universe and get back to us.. The reality is we are not the only living thing in this universe. Science has no way to prove otherwise, but shear numbers definately lean in the direction of there being life, and a lot of it, somewhere in the universe.
It's more than just naive to think there's nothing else out there.
