Hugh Ross, as an astronomer (postdoctoral work at Cal-Tech) and evangelist, is in an excellent position to comment on the nexus of UFOs and the occult.

And there does seem to be a very noticeable connection.

Those of us who have read the abduction accounts of people who have been interviewed by Dr. John Mack, Budd Hopkins, and Prof. David Jacobs will note that rarely is an abductee a Christian...even in name only. They are often involved in the occult. This is particularly strange given that abductions run in multi-generations of the same family.

Some people who have publically discussed their so-called alien "interactions" have spoken about their occult and Luciferian leanings (former CIA officer John Ramirez and former Navy cryptologist Matthew Roberts).

Let me add that the Christian view of the demonic may be narrower than what is being encountered. Our views of the demonic have been defined by books and movies. The beings described by abductees like Whitley Strieber are not so apparently evil. They come across as enigmatic--sometimes pretending to be friendly, at other times seeming to be cold and indifferent. That said, Strieber has noted time and time again that the "beings" have a destructive and dangerous aspect when humans react to them with hostility.

Caveat: I'm just reporting what so-called abductees have said. For all I know, these people are victims of some kind of mass hallucination. But whatever the case, there are so MANY abduction and interaction accounts and these accounts are so similar, it is reasonable to consider that something very real is happening to them.

Hindu god-men are very familiar the beings "described by abductees like Whitley Strieber are not so apparently evil. They come across as enigmatic--sometimes pretending to be friendly, at other times seeming to be cold and indifferent"

Of course god-men don't refer to these beings as extraterrestrials but gods and goddesses. Toward them the gods adopt a pretense of friendliness at times, at others, they terrify and cruelly punish their worshippers. And then there are the beings who pretend to be Hindu demons. Both groups however, are fallen angels.
