As a Christian, I definitely believe in UFOs, except they are not UFOs. They are fallen angels, masquerading as beings from other galaxies, and their goal is deception. Unfortunately, they have largely succeeded.
Here are a few:
Jacques Vallée – Vallée, one of the most influential authorities on the UFO phenomenon, has suggested that the UFO phenomenon may act like a "control system" and has compared the entities associated with UFO sightings to trickster-like figures in folklore. In his book Messengers of Deception (1979), Vallée explores the possibility that these beings may intentionally mislead or deceive humans for purposes that are not fully understood.
John Keel – Keel, famous for his work The Mothman Prophecies (1975), also took a trickster approach to the UFO phenomenon. He referred to UFO occupants as "ultraterrestrials," entities that play tricks on human perception and belief systems. Keel believed that the beings might be manipulating humans by presenting themselves in ways that conform to different eras and belief systems.
Whitley Strieber – Strieber, known for his book Communion (1987), where he recounts his own experiences with what he describes as alien abduction, has also alluded to the idea that the beings involved are not straightforward in their interactions with humans. He often suggested they might engage in behavior that could be considered trickster-like, as their true motives remain elusive. Strieber has said that he was gang-raped by these beings. I don't know if he was referring to experiments being performed on himself as rapes or if his experience was actually what we might think of as a gang attack of a sexual nature.
Terence McKenna – Although more focused on psychedelic experiences, McKenna’s exploration of entities encountered through altered states of consciousness (sometimes linked to UFO phenomena) has also included references to trickster-like behaviors. He speculated that such entities might not be what they appear, and their influence may be more about altering perception and belief rather than direct contact.
These researchers have often likened the behavior of these beings to tricksters in mythological traditions, presenting phenomena that challenge our understanding of reality.
