This book provides compelling examples of how the UFO problem is very much linked with the supernatural in terms of how the craft act, their mimicry of both real and fictional human technology. The concept of RUFO, Residual Unidentified Flying Objects, provides a solution for many of the behavior of both the craft and their supposed biological inhabitants. This examination draws the reader to a stunning conclusion on how demonic entities are preparing for the prophetic battles of the between God and his angels by fooling a world population into believing that extraterrestrial biological visitors are behind these visitations, manifestations, and abductions. Even if you still accept the chance for biological life in the universe, the transient nature of both the craft, the action of the so-called aliens, and the association of occult elements with this phenomenon points to a plan by God’s arch enemies to use the new age frenzy around these atmospheric signs and wonders to both explain away God calling his believers home to him, and to subsequently unite the world religions in around a false messiah. A pivotal work.

Despite the well researched aspects of the work, it makes blanket statements regarding the UFO phenomena that simply do not work with the records of the more compelling accounts. The authors’ premise that only those involved in the occult can be attacked by these demons/ETs does not make sense in the light of the such impressive accounts such as the 1972 Coyne National Guard helicopter abduction, 1948 Thomas Mantell P-51 crash and other, especially military, events.

Beyond the book, the idea that demons were behind the UFO/Alien/Abuduction phenenomena is someting that I have been mulling around in my head since about 1990. In the context of the Bible, Angels are very much “extraterrestrial” but they are not limited to our dimensions as biological entities. The Torah and the Bible are clear that angels can manfiest themselves to appear as human. Realizing that demons and their leader Satan are simply “fallen” angels; they made war with God and one third of the angels were cast out of “heaven.” The Bible describes Satan as the “Prince of the power of the air” in Ephesians 2:2. With this theory, many aspects of “high strangeness” begin to be at least understood. Much more on this could be said, and I’ll do a full posting or multiple postings on my belief regarding this subject.
