My personal opinion is that these types of demonic apparitions could never happen to the elect. (ghosts, ufos, etc). I hope my theory is true : >0

It’s not. Even Jesus was tempted by Satan.

Probably depends on our definitions.

The woman Hopkins wrote a book or two about . . . I forget her name . . . and the books . . . let me think . . . Linda? C? had a long series of abductions with very strange experiences atypical even for high strangeness.

Anyway—she had a reputation as a solid even Pentecostal Christian.

However, IIRC, Guy Malone investigated the details and at one point, SHE INVITED such goings on misconstruing them as angelic etc. Satan and cohorts are always quite happy for such invitations. They give him access even for believers, imho.

Reportedly RC’s and Jews are under-represented in abductees. Have never read why.

I had a friend who was out in the mountains in West Texas around Alpine, and they decided to spend the night in the mountains and look for UFOs in the clear night sky. He said they were laying out there and hoping, hoping, hoping they’d see a UFO, and then suddenly there was a star that was moving all over the place, and freakign them out, and then it started coming toward them, getting bigger and bigger until it was like the size of a quarter in the sky, and suddenly he was hoping, hoping, hoping that they would NOT see a UFO, and then it flew away.
