managerie: You have a very interesting theory here, but thats all it is for now....a theory. Thats all anyone has. I'm not saying you're
wrong, for all I know you could be a great holy prophet, but you failed to satisfactorily prove to me that aliens are demons.

1. As we review all of the 67-70 factors that are required for a planet/environment to sustain life of a carbon-based nature (and we have
no proof of any other type of life) and review the probabilities of planets in the universe having those factors, the probabilities of there being
such a planet anywhere in the universe are equal to or greater than the number of estimated bodies in the universe. That speaks to design that we are
here and that we are in fact alone as far as planet-based life.
2. it says clearly in the New Testament that Jesus died once for all. My spirit tells me that it was for all life in His image (with a soul) and that
event happened here, on Earth, 2000 years ago. God always desire that all come to know and follow Him and He would not allow an entire planet
not to know Him. In my experience in travelling through 20 countries around the world, my bridges to fellow followers of Jesus span culture, language,
and race. They are my brothers and sisters in Christ. There
have been no major sharings, revelations, etc that would indicate this other planet (if there is one) knowing Jesus or about Him at all.
3. We do know that even Henry Kissinger reviewed a presentation at a Bilderberger meeting in the 1980s or 1990s that the New World Order could be more
quickly arranged if the world perceived that it was responding together to a common threat, especially if that threat were alien to this world. When
the Rapture of Christians happens, what better time is there for the anti-christ to come in as the only guy who can negotiate with the aliens and
prevent anyone else from being abducted/killed, etc. This will be a major boost in bringing him to power.
4. Many of the sightings show that the UFO will appear or dissappear.
We know that angels/demons have command of more spatial dimensions in which we live so they are using those dimensions. There are more spatial
dimensions than the the 3 in which we move and have our being.
5. I went to one of the more elite engineering schools in the country. While there, I got to know many who were of the exclusively scientific mind.
The guy wearing the Vulcan ears at the convention is not likely to follow someone who shows up in a robe and sandles. However, if some "being" shows
up in a silver suit with an advanced technology ray gun, many of them would be following this superior being right over a cliff if that's where he
lead.
My arguments against your reasons are these:
1.) Firstly as Misfit said why does any possible life
have to be carbon based? They're different creatures altogether whether demons or
aliens.
2.)In you're second reason you simply assume that these creatures do not know our God. If they've been around so much longer than we have, which
would appear to be the case, they may be way more spiritually advanced than we are. Theres no way of telling. Who says when Jesus died for us 'all'
he wasnt dying for them too? I'd also like to add that there have been many scriptures purposefully ommited from the bible by the Old Catholic
church, which were thought to contain evidence of extra terrestrials.
3.)Your Henry Kissinger statement is also still simply a theory.Thats like saying you could sell bum cream to millions by hypnotising them to think
their asses were about to fall off. Is it possible? In a couple of our technolgically advanced years probably. Is it likely to ever materialise? No.
Same with your statement.
4.)This statement still doesnt show that aliens and demons are one and the same. What if they
both can travel across different dimension?
5.) I understand you're point about the "vulcan" guy, but Jesus pitched up as a normal guy 2000 years ago and people still followed him. I
guarentee the vulcan eared guy would have sat up and taken notice had the guy in a robe and sandals suddenly resurrected someone. Besides, the number
of people who believe with that amount of intensity in UFO's is miniscule in comparison to the number of faithful Christians today. Aliens pitching
up and leading random people with Vulcan ears astray is highly unlikely to have a huge impact on the Christian world as we know it today. Demons
would look to cause havoc with the Anti-Christ on a much larger scale. This statement still doesnt prove you're theory that the alien race are the
"supposed" Anti-Christ.
All you've basically proven in your listed reasons is that you're theory is
possible not neccesarily that its true. I appreciate you're
opinion though, I wasnt trying to shoot you down I was just pointing out some flaws in you're argument.
I'm a Christian too but I think aliens and demons are different. I know of people who are very good and fathful christians that have reported being
abducted. If aliens were demons God would not have allowed them to be anywhere NEAR those people. If they really were meant to lead us astray why
dont they simply pop up everywhere and say "follow us, we're the
real religious truth!"
That would be a damn side more convincing than them chancing upon unsuspecting random people and taking them away to poke needles in their head,
dontcha think?
