I notice you highlighted the schooling thing but I would say your faith in others to not do whatever it takes to discredit someone or tarnish their reputation is a bit too high.
That said, when talking about Lazar one has to certainly be wary of the later stories, some of which you pointed out. I personally believe his initial stories are solid but that he eventually started making himself look bad by trying to stay relevant and trying to counteract the debunkers with even more elaborate stories that unfortunately get bunched with his whole history and lead people to say none is true instead of parts.
Legitimate question: In stories such as this or those UFO/alien related do you believe everything you read or see that coincides with your attitudes and opinions? Or are you willing to see truths here and there and see that an extremist in a opinion based topic is an extremist regardless and will do or say whatever necessary to support their views?

I find it next to impossible to believe that the US Government would somehow edit someone's old existing school records. Especially when that someone is a proven liar and criminal. There's plenty of evidence of complete crazy that came straight out of Lazar's mouth. The government didn't have to work very hard at all if the plan was to make him look loony.
Regarding your question, I like to think that I view each piece of information independently. I'm not really biased on the topic. I absolutely believe in extraterrestrial intelligence. It's out there. I just don't believe that our government is in cahoots with the lizard men and hiding it from the citizens and the rest of the world in any way, shape, or form...
