Being somewhat knowledgeable regarding the Bible Whompa1, I gotta tell ya I must have missed that section of The Good Book you seem to be referring to. I might also mention when someone says they're 'quoting' the Bible, it is commonly accepted practice to include chapter+verse.
What's my point?
I don't exactly remember Jesus or his disciples or the guys that actually penned the Bible speaking English. That close enough for you there big guy?

Like I've said before, no one can say with 100% accuracy if they are friendly or not. But if one had to take peoples accounts I'd say they are NOT. Cause I think that if aliens are abducting people and sticking probes up their but, this to me indicates a foul entity. They play hide and seek, practically torturing us, they sometimes burn and kill people with they're ships, (Think betty cash). They kill our food source( cows,cattle) drink their blood like the chupacabras does and scar us for life..

Hey ES, what are your thoughts about destiny?
The reason I ask, and this is purely an example, no double meaning behind this etc, but lets say it is in Whompa's destiny to come across you at ATS because he/she is unaaware the he/she is an experiencer. Is it a fluke or some design at work?
I guess what I am getting at - is there a plan to awaken such experiencers at perhaps key intervals of negotiations so that then they can go on and make others aware etc?
Am I making any sense?

>'A holy book is a holy book no matter the author.'
It just kind of seems strange Whompa1...
Coming from a guy who appears to be kind of hung up on the concept of 'proof'.
The facts are that the 'Pearl of Great Price' was written by a Mormon apostle. As far as I know Moses wasn't exactly alive in the 1850s. So one can only presume that this holy book is the product of some type of divine revelation.
Which was my original point when I was asking which version of the Bible you were quoting with regards to the statement you made:
>'Why are you comparing aliens to demons? I remember reading a passage in the bible were Jesus says something along the line about there being many worlds he (god) has created. So why is it not possible for aliens to be just that aliens?'
So what we have here is you making revisions (BoGP vs. KJ Bible) to the revisions (KJ Bible vs. Bible)... and that is a best case scenario.
The bottom line being there is NO reference in the Bible to the concept of 'many worlds'.
Which is the basic argument you used to try to stomp on Carpenters, Cabanman (and yes even DevilSent91s ) lines of discussion with regards to the ETs place in the cosmology that surrounds us.
