"That was the first thought Whitley Strieber had when he encounter them (i.e., they are demons) and he is not a particularly religious person in the classical sense."

Secular UFO writers like Jacques Valee and the late John Keel both concluded that UFOs are indeed some sort of occult phenomenon, but they avoided terms like "demons" in order to avoid the theological associations of that term. But to me, it's a distinction without a difference.

I strongly recommend Vallee's book "Dimensions," or Keel's "Operation Trojan Horse." Both authors strongly recommend against deliberately seeking contact with the phenomenon, as close contact can have dire mental and even physical consequences. Keel strongly recommends against encouraging young children to develop an interest in the subject.

Some powerful points you made there.

much more likely to be an occult phenomenon, more in the category of demons than advanced technology.

The purpose of the phenomenon is deception, and steering people away from traditional (Christian) religious belief into an interest in New Age beliefs and the occult. A common result is for people to intertwine their UFO interests with Eastern religions, often Tibetan Buddhism.

Both authors strongly recommend against deliberately seeking contact with the phenomenon, as close contact can have dire mental and even physical consequences.

I watch some of the better podcasts on the subject and the conversation has increasingly moved from nuts and bolts UFO's to the occult and paranormal.

Your points should be reread by all. It is quite possible that what we are dealing with here is NOT extraterrestrials per se but spiritual creatures which do not have our best interest at heart.

The agenda of these "others" becomes quite clear after a while.
