I would make a point in defense of your argument. One thing that has aways bothered me about UFO phenomena is the design of the crafts depicted in artistic rendering throughout the history of the subject.
For a comparison, I would offer the legendary bigfoot. Whether one believes in bigfoot or not, one must admit that the artistic depictions of the creature remain relatively identical through the course of it's history- Even to representations on totem poles constructed before the foundation of our country.
When one looks at the history of UFOs, using a slice of history from the 1950s through today, one does not find that same continuity. If anything, the depictions and even photographs offer style changes quite in line with the changes in industrial ability here on earth.
The depictions from the fifties offer a craft looking much like two opposing and crudely formed hubcaps welded together, while by the nineties, the craft tend toward a sleek triangular swept single wing approach. If one were to increment each decade between the two, one can plainly see the evolution taking place, and it follows closely with the futuristic visions of the earth bound industry of that respective day.
That being said, my own opinion will wind up somewhere between yourself and our FRiend Quix, whose position holds much value as well. I think technological advancement is driven by demonic forces, and always has been; their motive being to oppose Almighty God with the force available right here on this earth where they have been trapped among us. Our literal dependence on that technology drives us away from what God had intended and causes us to become calloused to the miraculous evidences of God by our reliance on false miracles.

Thanks for your kind words.
I think your post is well put.
The same critters (nephilium/watchers/fallen angels), evidently, got in trouble with God
BY GIVING MAN IMPLEMENTS OF WAR AND INTERBREEDING
BEFORE
the flood.
Here they are doing it wholesale leading up to Armageddon. And satan has reportedly convinced the puppet masters that he will WIN at Armageddon. Boy are they in for a surprise.
I doubt that the oft reported “ET’s” are demons per se. I wouldn’t be surprised if some variation of the greys are, as some have asserted, bioengineered shells housing demons . . . but I think the bulk of the ET’s are the
NEPHILIUM/FALLEN ANGELS/WATCHERS
as Guy Malone outlines so well in his website
I have often pondered the seeming evolution of the craft. And the fact that SOME percentage of craft DO seem to be living organisms . . . from a spirit dimension?
But many are tangible if not nuts and bolts!
AND a number of the ancient depictions DO depict MODERN STYLES. So, it’s not a consistent thing one way or the other.
Thx.
Hi roamer,
I find your post #198 interesting and thought-provoking.
I also like your FReeper page and think you have chosen a TRUTH about what makes the USA great and an alarming warning at what could cause the USA to cease to be great.
Thanks.
I remember hearing Winkie Pratney say long ago that he believed the Industrial Revolution and all advancements of mankind since then have been allowed by God in His sovereignty and as part of His timing of world events ultimately leading up to the end times.
You are probably correct that the kingdom of Satan is working overtime to use these same advancements to lure and entice mankind down the broad path that leads to death and eternal damnation (rather than the straight narrow way that leads to life) but God is sovereign and all wisdom comes from Him.
I do appreciate your awareness that the father of lies and his cohorts are very much involved in using the things of the world to advance the kingdom of darkness and to oppose Almighty God and His loving purposes for the world and for all mankind.
However, I sit here using a computer and my furnace is running and keeping me warm; I have a car out in the driveway and later today I will go and use my debit card at K-Mart to buy some Boylan’s Natural Root Beer sweetened with pure cane sugar, and then I will go to work and log in on the computer and punch in to start my day, et cetera.
I guess the alternative would be to become a strict Amish. However, even some Amish drive their horse and buggies and park at Wal-Mart and go in and shop; it’s true, I’ve seen it with my own eyes.
Though I live a modern life, I still yield to God and live my life for Him.
I do see people all around me busy living lives devoid of God and yes, many of them are mesmerized by technology. And it says in Ephesians 6: 12-13,
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. 13 Therefore, take unto you the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day and, having done all, to stand.
There are evil principalities and rulers of the darkness of this world, and folks who don’t take up the whole armor of God won’t withstand in the evil day. Woe to those who’re too busy for God. They are sitting ducks.
I look forward to talking with you again sometime. Have a good day.
