I was looking for some good background chatter on TV as I work, and I came across a History Channel special entitled "UFOs in the Bible." It is one of the UFO Files series episodes, and the description from the History.com website reads:
"Journey back through time into the mysterious history of UFOs as revealed through ancient biblical texts. Through intensive reinterpretation of early religious documents, researchers believe that they have found evidence of ancient UFO activity. From Elijah's flying "chariots of fire" and Ezekiel's "wheels within wheels in the sky" to the enigmatic aerial phenomenon that lead Moses during the Exodus, we apply a modern perspective to the writings of the Bible in the context of UFOs."
I am not attributing any truth to this, I merely came across it and thought it was interesting and out there. The Bible is fascinating and out there already, even for one who struggles to believe it. To bring in an alien angle makes me laugh, I think I will rewatch the history channel episode, this time on the forefront and not the background.
In the meantime, I will just share some of the things I overheard, though not in great detail. There seems to be a lot of precedence given to flying objects of the Old Testament, and even some instances in the New Testament.

I have heard a theory that it is aliens coming back to study their experiment of hybrid evolution.Ever wonder why chinese people and chow dogs both have almond shaped eyes?How it is that man appeared almost at the same time worldwide only being different in race or color. Aliens also being depicted in cave drawings and ancient art.In the age of the world modern man has only been here a few days.
It seems to me that the History Channel has become the all-UFO-all-the-time channel. I find myself spending more time at the National Geographic channel to get the programing that I used to see on the History Channel.
They’ve got a good non-UFO, non-WWII series called “Battles BC” that I recommend thoroughly.

But other than that, yeah you’re right.
Saw part of one of those. It was pretty good.
And can you prove that either space "monsters" or cryptozoology "monsters" don't exist? Of course not. That's simply your opinion, and opinions aren't facts.
Wow! Serious 1970's reference.
They are always so, so close to getting the key evidence but somehow the weather turns bad, the sample was too degraded, the sample was bear poop, something, always something. This transparent attempt to create drama (along with the breathless narration) just drives me nuts.
guys cutting down trees and trying to get out of the way or guys in semis driving over frozen lakes.
Leave this to Discovery Channel, they do this type of programming better.
sorry I know a little blasphemous, but perfect fit
Monsterquest is great at relieving my insomnia...
Maybe Scientologists are right and Xenu, the Galactic Overload, really is locked up in a volcano in Hawaii.

Come to think of it...Obama reminds me of Xenu.
Perhaps he IS Xenu ;-)
He does goof the floof , after all.
Scripture teaches that Christ died once, for all.
And
that ALL CREATION
waits groaningly, yearningly, eagerly awating the ‘manifestation of the sons of God.’
Whatever else that means, it implies that all Creation suffers from the pollution of Sin that Christ’s victory on The Cross and the empty Tomb FINISHED in the spiritual realm.
After Armageddon, another level of FINISHED will be manifested.
I suspect that ALL CREATION WILL CELEBRATE INTENSELY, THEN.
