Watching the 20-hours maxi-series "Taken" on SciFi channel last week, it occurred to me that people who have rejected traditional concepts of God and religion are largely those who look to the skies most hopefully for visitors. It's always that some entities from another world will invade our own, show us the path to enlightenment or at least save us from ourselves. They don't put the name "Jesus" to their beliefs, but the story is much the same.

One thing that many UFOlogists haven't considered (at least most of them haven't considered) is that the various sitings of UFO may be spiritual in origin -- manifestations of spirit beings. The "experiences" of being abducted may be an elaborate psychic hoax perpetrated by spiritual beings on gullible humans dedicated to keeping people from the truth of the gospel of Christ. This I'm willing to believe.

Reasons.com has a video dedicated to explaining rUFO's (residual UFOs or those for which, unlike 95% of others, have no natural or man-made explanation) in terms of 'extra-dementional' or spiritual beings. Very interesting.

I totally agree. There are extraterrestrials - spiritual ones, bent on deception, and I have no doubt that so-called alien encounters do happen. They just aren't what UFOlogists think they are. He is the prince of the power of the air, after all, and we wrestle not against flesh and blood.

Bingo. I believe you've got it. I think it is all related to Genesis 6, where the sons of God came unto the daughters of men.
