Are Freemasons from another planet?

The 13th Annual UFO Symposium was held this weekend at the Aztec, New Mexico Masonic Lodge, today's Durango Herald reported.

What a great setting for a UFO conference. The mingling of Masonry and aliens should convince our critics we really are involved in global conspiracies, magick and interstellar hijinks.

Featured guest speakers at the two-day conference included Stan Friedman, Kenn Thomas, and Lyn Buchanan.

Friedman is a long-time UFO investigator, author, and former nuclear physicist who has written books on the Roswell, NM alien crash in 1947.

Kenn Thomas is the long-time publisher of Steamshovel magazine. The mag's tagline is "All Conspiracy. No Theory."

Buchanan is a former military operative who came to fame in the 1980s for his involvement in the government's Stargate project. The character Lyn Cassady, played by George Clooney in the 2009 film The Men Who Stare at Goats, is based on Buchanan. Goats, of course, are widely associated with Freemasonry.

I'm sure it was an interesting weekend.
