That theory has always made sense to me--get people's attention focused on stuff that has little place in it for Biblical input, and that's that. I have a friend in Maine who won't listen to anything about Jesus (or anything either political party says) because he believes in UFO conspiracies.

Since the standard of alien exploration has a lot to do with "probing", I have a lot of questions about their civilization and diplomatic skills.

UFO's are like crop circles. All it takes is just one to be real.

Just one.

Why would a demon need a spaceship?

Never seen a UFO, seen a ghost once. My Great Grandmother walked into a room I was sleeping in and left through the wall where there used to be a door when she was alive. Weird.

Deception, to get people to question their faith. Also some people have proposed that the Rapture of believers will be "explained away" as a UFO type of event.

Ephesians 6:12For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Actually the belief that these UFO phenomenon are spiritual events rather than little green men is not that new.

Interesting possibility. I'm a science fiction fan, but I've never found anything very scientific about the UFO phenomenon.

There's an interesting related piece on demons in a recent issue of Crisis Magazine:

On the other hand, maybe nasty, nocturnal space aliens gave rise to stories about 'demons'.

From what I can remember, "physicist Jacques Vallee" is kind of like "astronomer Emanuel Velikovsky" or "historian Michael Bellesiles."

Tell us more! I was given to understand that they only showed up on photos. From this I concluded that they were nothing more than motion blurred grasshoppers or dragonflies.

I had never seen one, then one day I decided to look for one, and almost immediately there it was. That's enough for me.
