Oh, boy. A nutcase.
But I suspect I know why he believes in aliens. If there are aliens, it invalidates the bible.
Unless Genesis 6 explains them.
“But I suspect I know why he believes in aliens. If there are aliens, it invalidates the bible.”
Actually, metaphorically it validates a whole lot of the Bible.
Let me add that, to my knowledge, Heiser never definitively said today’s so-called “aliens” are the Watchers, but emphasized that in a technological age, humans might reinterpret spiritual realities in extraterrestrial terms.
It’s as if the old story never ended—just got new packaging.
See Michael Heiser: The Unseen Realm: Recovering the Supernatural Worldview of the Bible
I have read Unseen Realm numerous times. It's a huge tome but well worth the effort.
How so? There are a great many things that are not mentioned in the Bible. What would be the need to tell ancient shepherds that there are others living "out there" when those shepherds didn't even know the nature of the stars, or even our own solar system?
My thoughts exactly. Nutcase.
I’ve not read of anything else New Pope has done, so I guess the first thing New Pope has done is to express his belief in UFO’s?
Nut. Case.
As Ancient Aliens featured briefly on one show, the Catholic Church has paid for a large telescope and observatory staff in the United States in Arizona for some reason. The Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope (VATT) on Mount Graham. They said their view in the Vatican is not as good due to light pollution and haze.
angels are aliens to this planet.
seraphim, cherubim, and that whole cornucopia of beings we see in the heavenly government hall in the book of revelation, that are before the throne of God.
all aliens to earth and who exist in other places.
alien prove that God is the panto-krator... the beginning and end of all power, reality and creation.
and at least some of the “aliens” out there, are fallen alongside of Satan and his team... about 1/3... so the war is about to go ‘galactic’
any person who believes that any creature could actually invalidate the bible just by existing... is a fool.
in revelation the great satan wraps his tail around 1/3 of the stars in heaven and casts them down... meaning that perhaps 1/3 of the galaxies are in open rebellion in this universe and that the concluding battles and conflicts... will be settled here on earth...
Christ already prepared us for contact with aliens.
He won all power both in heaven and on earth, and took the keys to death, hell, the grave, judgement and resurrection firmly in hand and commanded us to go do our job... till he comes.
