SUBJECT: PEOPLE REALLY DO HAVE SEX WITH SPACE ALIENS! FILE: UFO3374

Cambridge, Mass. - Dr. John Mack was a well respected Harvard University
|
|
psychiatry professor until he began taling about treating patients who've had
|
|
sex with space aliens.
|
|
|
|
Now he is considered a quack by many of his high-brow colleagues who want to
|
|
kick him out of the prestigious Ivy League school.
|
|
|
|
"I've know John since the 1950s. He's a brilliant fellow who occasionally
|
|
loses it, and this time he's lost it big time," said Dr. Paul R. McHugh,
|
|
director of the department of psychiatry and behvioral sciences at Johns
|
|
Hopkins Hospital.
|
|
|
|
"John is saying there are people who have been abducted by aliens and need
|
|
treatment for it, and that is just outrageous," Dr. McHugh added.
|
|
|
|
Before he began talking about space aliens, Dr. Mack was respected Pulitzer
|
|
prize-winning professor at Harvard Medical School, woh founded the psychiatry
|
|
department at Cambridge Hospital, one of Harvard's teaching facilities.
|
|
|
|
But some of Dr. Mack's Harvard cronies wondered if he had lost his marbles
|
|
after he appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show, Larry King Live and other talk
|
|
shows last year to promote his book, Abduction: Human Encounters With Aliens.
|
|
|
|
The book's 13 case studies included Ed, who remembers an alien woman taking a
|
|
sperm sample from him when he was in high school; Jerry, who says she gave
|
|
birth to a human-alien hybrid, and Peter, who tells Mack he had an alien wife
|
|
in a parallel universe.
|
|
|
|
It may have been the "talk show" publicity that inspired the Harvard Medical
|
|
Committee to investigate whether Dr. Mack's alien abduction research meets the
|
|
school's standards for scholarship.
|
|
|
|
They could applaud his alien research work or boot him out of school. Dean
|
|
Daniel Tosteson will make the decision based on the probe.
|
|
|
|
"History hasn't been kind to those who have unorthordox ideas," said attorney
|
|
Roderick MacLeish, who represents Dr. Mack. "That's the whole point of having
|
|
a free and open academic community. That's the whole purpose of tenure."
|
|
|
|
MacLeish says the medical commitee's action violates the principle of the
|
|
tenure system, which gives professors jobs for life so they can feel free to
|
|
pursue radical or unpopular research.
|
|
|
|
Dr. Mack, 65, told the Associated Press last year that he doesn't necessarily
|
|
believe in space aliens. But he can understand why his colleagues could find
|
|
his work troubling.
|
|
|
|
"We don't have room in our culture for this," he said. "It's the elite people,
|
|
my colleagues, who decide what we're supposed to believe, and to them this
|
|
isn't supposed to be."
|
|
|
|
A source close to the case, who didn't want to be identified, said that the
|
|
down-to-earth medical professors feel threatened by Dr. Mack's other world"
|
|
research.
|
|
|
|
"If Dr. Mack is right, it undercuts so much of the work of people over there,"
|
|
he said. "These people don't think anything is true unless they've got a
|
|
controlled study with rats."
