Starting way back in 1871 with Mackenzie (possibly even earlier) up to 2007 with Gordon Holmes there have been well over 100 sightings of the "Loch Ness Monster" and still most people question whether or not this creature exists. I have never personally seen it, but then again I have never seen a lot of things that I believe in.

How many things can you think of that you believe in? Have you seen any or all of them? Have you ever seen a dinosaur? Didn't think so. But you have seen their million year old bones, right? So what makes you believe? Why is it so difficult to believe that this type of thing can still exist?

It has been said that Nessy is a dinosaur. We believe that they existed 230 million years ago and yet we can't accept that this could be one. Is the fact that we have found their bones and not "Nessys" the only reason this can't be accepted?

There are animals that hibernate for long periods of time, awaiting the next desert storm, buried deep in the sand. In close relation to hibernation is estivation, a dormant period of escape from heat and drought. Other ways animals avoid excessively high or low temperatures and destructive increases or decreases in the water supply are encystment and the following dormancy. So could it be that the "Loch Ness Monster" hibernated for many years awaiting a suitable environment?

So why do we need to spend so much time trying to disprove something of this sort?

I believe that people spend WAY too much time and money trying to prove what is fact and what is fiction, about things that aren't all that important. Why not go spend that time and money trying to cure diseases and or something that will help people with things that we already know are factual? Just think how far Cancer or HIV research could be with all that extra funding and time.

Takeaways
  • So what makes you believe?
  • If in fact the "Loch Ness Monster" does exist, it has been there for a very long time
  • Quite literally, the "mystery" needs to stay "mysterious" sometimes.
