I replied delusion.

(2Th 2:11) And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:


(Rom 3:4) God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.


(2Ch 18:22) Now therefore, behold, the LORD hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of these thy prophets, and the LORD hath spoken evil against thee.

Izdaari, I normally agree with much you say. I suppose it's the cosmic, supernatural, mystical, faith-garnering, apocalyptic chacter of the whole UFO story which forces me to make some decision based on wahgt I think the Bible says.
(And this is ME thinking this way!). Because usually I hate it when people feel they have to have a "biblical view" on everything.

Yes, there are things out there that fly, or at least appear to, and haven't been identified. But I have no idea what they are, and neither do you. :p

That's certainly true. I've seen two UFO's during my lifetime, and they both behaved in a similiar fashion. Once, when the Hale-Bopp comet was visible in the sky (I was living in Sacramento then). We were out on the patio looking at the comet when a light about the same brightness as most of the surrounding stars appeared just above the comet. It wasn't noticable at first until it began to move horizontally along the tale of the comet, then made about a 45-degree turn downward relative to the horizon and accelerated. Once just a few years ago, another object behaved similiarly when I was staring at the stars on a camping trip. It's angle of changed trajectory was less sharp, and it increased in brightness then immediately disappeared. No idea what they were.

I have seen a couple of UFO's...They moved in a fashion that suggests that they were not of our manufacture.
I am still undecided about Alien abductions, but I won't rule them out completely.
Intelligent alien life forms...I am not so arrogant to think that intelligent life exists only on earth.
Humanoid aliens...there have been eye witness accounts to suggest that is one form, but the Universe is boundless, and the possibilities for other forms are just as boundless. Why not no form at all, such as energy or pure consciousness...or life forms based on minerals?:cool:

IMO aliens are demonic beings.



:)

Are ALL Aliens demonic in nature? I find that hard to believe.

I feel it is a waste of time to concern ourselves with this.

It does matter if you are a Christian (or a muslim) or any of the established religions.

The general philosophy of science fiction films seems to be:

1) this world - verge of catastrophe
2) other worlds and space - hope, challenge and fresh start.

Countless millions have a kind of cod-religion predictated on hope 'from the stars'

It stops them having to bring a God (who has a claim on us) into the picture.

Of course there are UFO. They are called Demons, it is just another way to turn people away from God by distracting people with this "Other life form" and what not. Forgive me I have not slept for 48hrs so I might be the only one who can understand this post lol.

Remember - Live by faith, Not by sight
