Recently there has been an accelerated ‘wave’ of UFO hysteria sweeping the globe, and many supporters have contacted us asking for comments. Later in this article, the recent claims are highlighted and addressed. Because we have written much in recent years about the growing popularity of what is commonly called the UFO phenomenon, this article will only briefly touch on what underpins this cultural phenomenon. Many of our original arguments and explanations are still relevant to these new speculative claims that appear in the media. This article provides many links to relevant articles already on creation.com, and we recommend spending time reading and researching these links and articles before commenting on this one (particularly before writing in, per the feedback rules of this site). It is impossible to cover every question raised by this phenomenon in one article, so for a comprehensive and up-to-date treatise we recommend the latest edition of the best-seller Alien Intrusion: UFOs and the Evolution Connection (AI) which has new first-hand research, or visit the aliens/UFOs section of our site.
Belief in extraterrestrial life has effectively become a new religion for many, replacing traditional belief. For example, the sociologist Gerald Eberlein stated:
“ … research has shown that people who are not affiliated with any church, but who claim that they are religious, are particularly susceptible to the possible existence of extraterrestrials. For them, UFOlogy is a substitute religion.â€

Aliens are coming
 
Yeah these alien movies are pretty funny to watch, and to laugh at.

Then there is the serious side if you want to delve into that, i recommend these pdf's on UFO's, aliens, nephilim and how they relate to the Bible from the www.contendingfortruth.com resources:

http://www.pdf.cftresources.com/2007_08-19__UFOs,%20Aliens,%20Fallen%20Angels,%20Nephilum%20&%20The%20Days%20of%20Noah.pdf

Yikes, are you aware that the JWs teach that the sons of God were fallen angels? :shame

I just don't buy it. God is not stupid nor is He the author of confusion. He destroyed the world, in part, because of these "sons of God." If they were angels, they would have escaped the flood and would have made the flood a moot point.

God's intentions would have been null and void.

I suggest people deal with this and other passages in a more reasonable and logical way and not interject angelic, alien theories into their theology.

I didnt know they taught that, i just know that JWs are wrong for many reasons, i haven't seen a JW for a long time. It depends on what you mean by "the sons of God were fallen angels". Those links i provided above should cover that and explain it.

If they were angels, they would have escaped the flood and would have made the flood a moot point.

What happened to these fallen angels?
"And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day." (Jude 1:6)
They didn't escape.

He destroyed the world, in part, because of these "sons of God."

Why did God bring the flood?
"There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD." (Genesis 6:4-8)

I suggest people deal with this and other passages in a more reasonable and logical way and not interject angelic, alien theories into their theology.

Hmmm the Bible mentions the angels a fair bit so they have to fit into theology somewhere. People have wondered about these heavenly messengers for centuries. As for aliens they are not aliens at all, a better title would be demons, devils, evil spirits or as Ephesians 6:12 says:
"For 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." Know thy enemy.

Remember the only power over these entities is the name and power of Jesus the Saviour of the world. Only a person who has repented of their sins and who says the name of Jesus with authority can STOP abductions and DRIVE AWAY demons. Peace Love and Understanding in Jesus' name Amen.

Here are some great UFO quotes that shed light on the deceptive nature of the "alien" presence:

"But the UFO phenomenon simply does not behave like extraterrestrial visitors. It actually molds itself in order to fit a given culture."
- John Ankerberg, The Facts on UFOs and Other Supernatural Phenomena, p. 10

"Human beings are under the control of a strange force that bends them in absurd ways, forcing them to play a role in a bizarre game of deception."
- Dr. Jacques Vallee, Messengers of Deception, p. 20

"We are dealing with a multidimensional paraphysical phenomenon which is largely indigenous to planet earth."
- Brad Steiger, [cited in] Blue Book Files Released in Canadian UFO Report, Vol. 4, No. 4, 1977, p. 20

"We are part of a symbiotic relationship with something which disguises itself as an extra-terrestrial invasion so as not to alarm us."
-Terrence McKenna [from a lecture]

"One theory which can no longer be taken very seriously is that UFOs are interstellar spaceships."
- Arthur C. Clarke, New York Times Book Review, 07/27/75

"There seems to be no evidence yet that any of these craft or beings originate from outer space."
-Gordon Creighton, Official 1992 Flying Saucer Review Policy Statement

"A large part of the available UFO literature is closely linked with mysticism and the metaphysical. It deals with subjects like mental telepathy, automatic writing and invisible entities as well as phenomena like poltergeist [ghost] manifestation and 'possession.' Many of the UFO reports now being published in the popular press recou[/pre][/pre]nt alleged incidents that are strikingly similar to demonic possession and psychic phenomena."
- Lynn E. Catoe, UFOs and Related Subjects: USGPO, 1969; prepared under AFOSR Project Order 67-0002 and 68-0003

"UFO behaviour is more akin to magic than to physics as we know it... the modern UFOnauts and the demons of past days are probably identical."
-Dr. Pierre Guerin, FSR Vol. 25, No. 1, p. 13-14

"The UFO manifestations seem to be, by and large, merely minor variations of the age-old demonological phenomenon..."
- John A. Keel, UFOs: Operation Trojan Horse, p. 299

"A working knowledge of occult science...is indispensable to UFO investigation."
-Trevor James, FSR Vol. 8, No. 1, p.10

"Studies of flying saucer cults repeatedly show that they are part of a larger occult social world."
- Stupple & McNeece, 1979 MUFON UFO Symposium Proceedings, p. 49

"The 'medical examination' to which abductees are said to be subjected, often accompanied by sadistic sexual manipulation, is reminiscient of the medieval tales of encounters with demons. It makes no sense in a sophisticated or technical framework: any intelligent being equipped with the scientific marvels that UFOs possess would be in a position to achieve any of these alleged scientific objectives in a shorter time and with fewer risks."
- Dr. Jacques Vallee, Confrontations, p. 13

"The symbolic display seen by the abductees is identical to the type of initiation ritual or astral voyage that is imbedded in the [occult] traditions of every culture...the structure of abduction stories is identical to that of occult initiation rituals...the UFO beings of today belong to the same class of manifestation as the [occult] entities that were described in centuries past."
- Dr. Jacques Vallee citing the extensive research of Bertrand Meheust [Science-Fiction et Soucoupes Volantes (Paris, 1978); Soucoupes Volantes et Folklore (Paris, 1985)], in Confrontations, p. 146, 159-161

"[The occultist] is brought into intelligent communication with the spirits of the air, and can receive any knowledge which they possess, or any false impression they choose to impart...the demons seem permitted to do various wonders at their request."
- G.H. Pember, Earth's Earliest Ages and Their Connection with Modern Spiritualism and Theosophy (1876), p. 254

"These entities are clever enough to make Strieber think they care about him. Yet his torment by them never ceases. Whatever his relationship to the entities, and he increasingly concludes that their involvement with him is something 'good,' he also remains terrified of them and uncertain as to what they are."
- John Ankerberg, The Facts on UFOs and Other Supernatural Phenomena, p. 21

"I became entirely given over to extreme dread. The fear was so powerful that it seemed to make my personality completely evaporate... 'Whitley' ceased to exist. What was left was a body and a state of raw fear so great that it swept about me like a thick, suffocating curtain, turning paralysis into a condition that seemed close to death...I died and a wild animal appeared in my place."
- Whitley Strieber, Communion, p. 25-26

"Increasingly I felt as if I were entering a struggle that might even be more than life and death. It might be a struggle for my soul, my essence, or whatever part of me might have reference to the eternal. There are worse things than death, I suspected... so far the word demon had never been spoken among the scientists and doctors who were working with me...Alone at night I worried about the legendary cunning of demons ...At the very least I was going stark, raving mad."
- Whitley Strieber, Transformation, p. 44-45

"I wondered if I might not be in the grip of demons, if they were not making me suffer for their own purposes, or simply for their enjoyment."
- Whitley Strieber, Transformation, p. 172

"I felt an absolutely indescribable sense of menace. It was hell on earth to be there [in the presence of the entities], and yet I couldn't move, couldn't cry out, couldn't get away. I'd lay as still as death, suffering inner agonies. Whatever was there seemed so monstrously ugly, so filthy and dark and sinister. Of course they were demons. They had to be. And they were here and I couldn't get away."
- Whitley Strieber, Transformation, p. 181

"Why were my visitors so secretive, hiding themselves behind my consciousness. I could only conclude that they were using me and did not want me to know why...What if they were dangerous? Then I was terribly dangerous because I was playing a role in acclimatizing people to them."
- Whitley Strieber, Transformation, p. 96

The alien manifestation will convince nearly everyone they have no need for a personal saviour. If aliens fulfill an antichristian agenda, aren't they part of the working of error from Satan himself, setting up the Antichrist? It just seems so obvious. Aliens must therefore be agents of Satan, the fallen angels.

actually what the jw teach is the fallen angels had sex with women and the children were the giants. those angels didnt die they were placed in abyss seperate from hell in chains and await judgment. its based on what jude says.
 
YES, they are coming and their invasion will begin on Wednesday June 29th of this year!! I'm afraid that on that great day, the Earth will go dark.
I will supply the evidence shortly.
 
50 years ago the SETI program began. (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence)
Whatever happened with that? Anything yet?

Years ago people explained unknown things with whatever they knew. Superstition was used to explain the unknown and misinterpretation of scripture was used to explain things wrought through witchcraft. People were executed who were convicted as a witch.

Nothing has changed. We still explain the unknown with what we have on hand. So we gather the data and from the data we introduce a conclusion, a conclusion we feel justifies the data gathered. Conclusion is by way of the mind, what it interprets the data to reveal. It's an opinion based on the evidence sought.

Therefore aliens exist in much the same way as witches did in the 1600's. Witches existed because the data on hand led to those conclusions. Aliens exist because the data on hand leads to those conclusions.

Until I actually meet a witch that can indeed conjure up things of good or evil (not through opinion) or until I actually meet an alien that's isn't an opinion I'll believe an over-active imagination plays a greater role in the modern alien than many would care to admit.

seti has lost funding and i believe in withcraft but not as you said but those who try to use "powers" to get things and are decieved by the devil and thus in sin per the bible words(witchcraft,necromancing,pharmecia, and familiar spirits).
 
Are you from Sirius? :lol :bigfrown :screwloose

The demons are the aliens, and they would like you to be your friend so they can mess you up.

Anyway alot of people could be deceived.

The scary part of what you've just posted is that my cousin's son believes Jesus is the son of God, but he also believes that Jesus is an alien. Funny, cause he's got a pot plant as his avatar on facebook and loves the rainbow family too.

What are your thoughts on Jesus? Is he also an alien? And if I could ask, where do you guys get your information from? I mean, do you guys just sit around stoned, or on peyote or what? And no, I am serious with the questions I just asked. I am not "stabbing" you or being mean.

Thanks.
 
If you believe in martains or aliens than your just as crazy as the us goverment, Area51 OH JESUS,

I don't mean to offend because, I respect your right to believe whatever you want. Its just that being atheist and believing in science, dismissing the possibility of aliens seems crazy to me.
 
I just thought of this:

Ephesians 2:
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
11 Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;
12 That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world:
13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.

where do you guys get your information from?

Well for me from Christian sources! Otherwise without discernment one can be led astray.
