Fascinating. I would enjoy hearing more how it aligns, if you are willing.
I have somewhat unorthodox beliefs and have several theories, but very much enjoy hearing others’ ideas.
less angry, less effed-up daemons would be preferable 👽
Baby (grandchild) finally born and I can now go back to sleep. I get my wife back tonight too. Have a great day ☀️

Congratulations on your new grandchild! Wonderful news.

The Biblical narrative thing is difficult to share because it is so large and elaborate.

I would point you to Michael Heiser's book "The Unseen Realm." You don't need to buy the book since there are many videos on it at youtube (here's the link: Unseen Realm). Naturally, use your own discernment when encountering anything that might disagree with your understanding of Scripture.

Heiser doesn't talk about UFO's specifically. What he does is dig into the Bible by using ancient Hebrew and Sumerian/Mesopotamian interpretations. He is one of the premiere scholars of ancient languages and the Bible. He has an MA in Ancient History from the University of Pennsylvania, and an MA and PhD in the Hebrew Bible and Semitic Languages from the University of Wisconsin–Madison (with a minor in Classical studies).

The way the UFO thing lines up with the Biblical narrative is that what is being encountered--the Phenomenon--appears to be related to the Fallen Angels in the Bible. It is the Fallen Angels and their world that Heiser explores and presents.

Note of caution: Of course, just because something lines up with a Biblical narrative doesn't mean the UFO matter is really about demons. I have no idea what the UFO phenomenon actually is--no one does at this point--so I encourage people to remain open-minded until we learn more.

BTW, it might help to read the reviews of the Unseen Realm at Amazon to get a feel for what it is all about. A lot of the reviewers are clergymen. You get the bad with the good when you read the reviews.;-)

The book itself is a paradigm shift in understanding the Bible. Heiser has gotten a lot of support from the Dallas Theological Seminary as well as many others.

One more note on the subject. Several former DOD employees who have worked with the Pentagon's team to delve into the UAP matter have said that there are some generals (at the Pentagon) who think the UAP matter is demonic...and they think we should leave it alone.

On top of that, there is an increasing connection between UFO sightings and the paranormal/occult. Numerous former seamen who were aboard when the USS Nimitz and other ships encountered tic-tacs have said that things "followed them home" after separation from the Navy. Things like orbs and poltergeists would appear in their homes and bedrooms. Some have reported seeing little gray men enter their bedrooms by walking through walls.

Now that the government has given whistleblowers immunity from prosecution, such reports are coming out more and more.

Weird stuff.
