Basically it means they want to tell you what to think.
Under pure Christian Doctrine, logic is the enemy of Faith. Logic is a form of common sense, isn't it?
You and I have sparred on other threads, to and fro, so to speak. I am most concerned about those who would dictate what you aught to think. Those who shrug and say, "beats me", seem to be the most thoughtful.
Personally, I just don't buy the crap about ETs being Satan's minions. I think ETs are part of the family. This I base on the idea that God Created us out of love, both as an object of love and a source of love. Why would be build such an immense neighborhood, and then populate only one backwater planet on the rim of nowhere?
Be advised, this is just my humble theory. I've been studying this stuff since the late 1970s. There seem to be good ETs and bad ETs, just like with people. As luck would have it, it would appear our esteemed leaders are working with the wrong team. Just like everything else they do, right?
Then at some point, you have to explain to yourself . . .
what these “good, nice, wonderful ET’s . . .
who, incidentally . . . mutilate humans just like they do cattle—with the human alive without anesthetic as long as possible . . . force sex on humans . . . take babies from mothers’ wombs at the end of the first trimester . . . etc. etc. etc.
. . . at some point, I hope you’d see the need to explain to yourself . . .
what these WONDERFULLY NICE ET’s are doing helping satan set up and maintain a very tyrannical, ruthless, demonized world government predicted in Scripture . . . and along the way . . . declaring that they bio-engineered Jesus (and staged his miracles with technology) and all other religious figures of history for social engineering purposes etc. etc.
Paul said that if an angel from Heaven came preaching any other Gospel, he must be considered accursed.
That verse does NOT take knowledge of Greek to understand quite plainly.
I don’t think that we’ve “sparred”, or at least I can’t remember it, because you seem to have a religious belief that’s tempered, unlike so many of the New Age’ers who don’t know or care that some of their sources include tarot card readers and psychics and astrologers, etc. Flying saucers have been mixed in with all the other historically questionable stuff.

I’ll to a degreee agree with you that aliens are part of the family. I think that they’re Freudian abstractions, wants, desires, for the same reason a Superman or a Wonder Woman was created. Sadly, the mentally disturbed have co-opted some of it, such as the late night proctology sessions, the kidnapping of fetuses, etc.
