Its demonic.

All are Gods creatures, they can be saved just like us.

These are simply Elohim Nifilim etc..

Something else?

Yes my friend...quite a bit. But I can understand how/why folks might have a hard time processing it. Have worn those shoes.

Which camp would you lean to?

Have you not been paying attention to the videos with the blurry dots that seem to move around and have you not been watching Spiderman's videos about telepathic communication with aliens. What more do you want?

Yes, many will chose to simply ignore the issue. I did for the most part for 64 years. I've worn those shoes. It's a troubling reality.

I'd like to see the Pentagon man up and tell us what they really think. Perhaps thats on the burner....dunno.

It will be interesting to see how the reality effects the various religions. Especially since many believe they were all maintained if not begun by extraterrestrials. There is some data which most surely suggests this to be the case.

Respectfully, (very respectfully) I think you are being obtuse & avoiding a legit topic. You may not like the implication he is making but it is a a legit point.

People have questions & they deserve answers even if they are being an ass.

Christianity doesn't account for external intelligent non human life. God created the world, God created man in this world, God cleansed this world. God sent His Son to this world to save Man on this world.

The Bible does mention creating the Heaven and Stars obviously but these are SIMPLE man made writings and not necessarily totally inclusive of all the things God has done.

It's a question worth asking.

Does God not care about other intelligent life? No one says he has to. There's that.

Maybe they come and are like "yeah, we have known about Christ for 42,000 years."

It's possible that God was active but they have since lost their connection to divinity over time. Science and all…

Personally I don't believe there are other intelligent life forms so I'm not sweating it.

Fermi Paradox. If there are unlimited or billions of possible intelligent life forms we would know about something. We could be the first but it's pretty damned unlikely.

I had a way too deep conversation about this topic a while back. Some points/questions that came up

We don't know God didn't create other "earths" and other intelligent life.

If he did, there's no guarantee that they had/have free will.

If he did and they do, is it inevitable that they had a fall from grace as well?

If they exist, did God also create them in his image?

Will the intelligent life (assuming it exists) that makes contact be those that still adhere to a belief in God, or will it be those that have rejected their creator?

What will be their understanding of the nature of God and what does their history with the creator look like?

If they were created and had a fall, was the Son sent to save them too, was there an alternative, or have they been saved from their fall at all?

Fun questions to think about, but ultimately doesn't change the fact that Jesus is Lord.

Your wrapping a whole bunch of stuff up in the question about the existence of ET. Having artifacts or dead aliens isn't all that interesting theologically. God created all things, so mere proof of existence only lets us know that God created ET.

ET's understanding of God is a much more interesting question, and for that, we would need communication with ET society (which doesn't appear to be the case yet). We can speculate on the reaction to each of the scenarios, but kinda useless.


As for your Fermi Paradox, while there might be billions of other intelligent life forms, the universe is vast and old and we haven't even really explored even our own solar system. Intelligent life may be dispersed through time and space enough that we wouldn't know. For example, what if intelligent life developed closer to the galactic core and has a vast space empire, but just haven't gotten around to the less dense spiral arms. Or maybe there was once this vast space empire that lasted a few million years, but collapsed a few hundred thousand years ago? Or we are the first in this galaxy but there are others in other galaxies and they haven't traveled between galaxies. Plenty of scenarios where lots of intelligent life could exist or could have existed but we wouldn't/couldn't know about it.

Heck, unless they are within about a hundred light years, they wouldn't even know we exist.

All of that covered in the Fermi paradox. Everyone comes to their own conclusions. The gist I get is there has to be a lot of excuses for why the obvious (if they did exist) hasn't happened.

Point being prior to that it doesn't prove or disprove anything because there are a million possible excuses or reasons for why someone still chooses to believe what they do.

We do that today without aliens. Faith sort of works that way.

Many people have been visited by what they describe as ETs. Much research done by secular physicians has gone into recording these abductions and they come to an alarming finding that they resemble a demonic possession. Sleep paralysis is much the same. Personally and through discernment with the holy spirit I know it's unholy and demonic. They are only a creation of GOD in the sense that they were once angels.

Many I'm sure in the church have had these experiences but are too afraid to ask about them for fear of being shrugged off as loony or treated much in the manner some here have addressed it as too outlandish to be a real thing.

Demons are et as are angels and what our primitive cultures termed "sons of God, Elohim et. al. ET psychic abilities are amazing and highly evolved. This is how they communicate. Think esp. Thought/consciousness is also incorporated into the vehicles navigation systems. These civilizations might be billions of years in advance of us. David and Robert are the ones deluded. Data suggests they were the ones to originate/maintain the major religions. Control mechanisms.

Is a creator required?

I think the slow, deliberate et disclosure process was initiated in part to give the major religions time to plan. Adjust. Assess. Mitigate damage perhaps. Especially those that depend on deep psychological control mechanisms ala the Vatican.

Under oath today.

So now that high ranking former military/intelligence official has claimed we have "exotic..not of this planet materials and vehicles".....where do we go from here?

I think 3 very important questions need to be asked and answered. Hopefully honestly.

Who initiated the original lie about Roswell?

Who has been responsible for its maintenance?

Why?

Unless aliens can reduce our taxes, decrease inflation, or help me regrow hair, I have way way way too many other important things in my life to worry about.

However, as far you your question about maintenance...I'm pretty sure it was Halliburton.

The original question deals with how this reality will now effect religions.. Many researchers have said that one of the, if not THE primary reason for the cover-up is/was its effect on religion.

Believe it or not, this transcends the economy, hair loss and even taxes. Buckle up my friend..

They won't be flying in the traditional sense if those come about. That's one of the big reasons for disclosing the reality. There ARE alternative energy systems. Trust the data. The many years of back engineering most likely has resulted in figuring out some of that. There are those who have been involved in "secret" programs our ours where this tech is being utilized. We will be hearing from those folks as well. The former Marine recently spoke about one of our craft he and his company encountered in Indonesia. It wasn't getting around on Jet A fuel...

Slowly the reality will be accepted; the giggles will subside..

There are photos on the net already. Now, whether those are legit or not.....Perhaps some are. Some most likely are not....

Perhaps those et species evolved along the bird-like branch of their animal kingdom tree. Many appear to be more reptile like reportedly. The Hopi people of the US Southwest speak of the "Ant People". Perhaps they evolved in a different environment than on earth and developed features resembling ants? I find it interesting that many cultures have reptile/serpent/devils et. al. figures in their histories...

Many claim to be abducted by beings with oversized heads. In a million years or so, perhaps our species will have larger cranial capacities- larger heads?

Incredible time to be alive. Here is a good discussion by Ross C..

So these aliens have figured out interstellar and, presumably, faster than light travel. Awesome! So why are they so awful at atmospheric flight? It's not like they've had one or two crashes, that'd be understandable. No, we're talking about dozens of crashes over the last 80 years or so. Seems weird to me that they apparently crash at higher rates than commercial airlines do.

Maybe they actually aren't so bright after all...

The trick with creatures capable of FTL is that our understanding of special relativity shows that even FTL communication let alone travel can cause causality paradoxes.
