Your right - they often said things like - 'those who dwell on the earth' and In all religions there is a thought of life after death (up there). I guess your question leads us back to the very beginning of why we believed that life awaited us in the sky. Fearful things came from the sky just as life giving things did (sun, lightening, thunder, meteors). In Egyptian lore there was the sun God, represented by various deities but all made from the sun.
Revelations 9:1-9:4
1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth; and to him was given the key to the bottomless pit. 2 And he opened the bottomless pit, and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. 3 And there came out of the smoke locusts upon the earth; and unto them was given power, as the scorpions of the earth have power. 4 And it was commanded to them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only those men who have not the seal of God in their foreheads.

What was John seeing 2000 years ago?

A dragon could be something in the sky - a commet looking like a dragon; something else on fire. Perhaps frog looking things come from it.
Dianec
But doesn't it speak of the mark of the beast before the frogs?
15 The second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed. 16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, 17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.

If something infiltrated earth they would want to differentiate us with a mark? I suppose there is a dragon standing on the shoreline before the mark. When does this dragon enter?
The dragon stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea.

An all knowing God being connected to whatever it is in the sky that we feel we will return to, (or that has come to visit us through history), makes ruling out aliens nearly impossible for me.

I am love, the embodyment. Fear not ones who decieve but trust in ones heart.

You have a much better point, if you're looking for non-human entities involved with us in the bible with Dan 2:43
“And whereas thou sawest iron mixed(6151) with miry clay, they shall mingle(6151) themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not cleave(1693) one to another, even as iron is not mixed(6151) with clay.”
If however, you're being specific about the frogs, my apologies.

I was told that god is in each and every one of us, who have a soul.
Some of us were born without a soul, a living entity and thy walk among us as leaders.

The frogs are symbolic of unclean propaganda that Satan inspires to lead all the governments of the earth to the battle of the great day. The propaganda will come from the "false prophet" (which is the Anglo-American duel world power), the "wild beast" (which is the United Nations) and the dragon itself, or Satan directly.
There will be deceiving propaganda by the United States and Great Britain, the United Nations, and also propaganda inspired directly by the dragon Satan that will gather all mankind together against Jehovah God and his anointed to fight against them and his people during Armageddon.
