UFOs and RELIGION
What is the subject of UFOs
doing on the Jovial Atheist's web site? I am glad you asked. That is a good
question, and I have a good answer. It is because down through the ages these
aerial occurrences have been observed and recorded in many private and public
writings. Indeed, the Christian Bible is full of accounts, which in modern day
terminology would be considered UFO related. There are many accounts in the
Bible that if they happened today; they would be considered alien activity. In
the Bible days, and to holy men, these happenings were attributed to gods,
angels or devils.
The word that is most often
translated into English as “angels,” is the Hebrew word that should be
translated as "watchers." There are many ancient writings, myths and
stories about these encounters with the watchers. Some of these stories are in
civil and secular writings and many others are found in religious stories. In
the religious stories, they are attributed to angels, gods, spirits and demons.
I have read hundreds of these accounts from both ancient and modern writers. I
have searched out a large number of these stories from religious works. In
every case, secular or religious, the results of this experience of being
visited by these aliens has made great changes in the lives of those visited
(some for good and some for bad).
To make matters worse, some
of these watchers seem to be good guys and some of them seem to be bad guys.
One thing seems certain. The technological, biological and neurological science
and abilities possessed by these beings is beyond our comprehension, indeed, it
is beyond our imagination. It seems they can heal diseases from a distance,
read minds, place thoughts and urges into men's minds, cause physical change
and activity in the area of material matter and many more unusual and
astounding things. But, and this is an important “but,” these intrusions into
human life are extremely limited. We do not know upon what basis they intrude.
We can only guess.
I would have to consume many
pages just to list some of the sources of this information. The fact of the
matter is, I studied for many years to find out these things. Now I find that
most of it is available on the Internet with just a couple of clicks on the mouse.
Simply tell your search engines (always use several engines using the same
topic) to search some of these topics: UFO, Atheism, Prophesy, Zecharia
Sitchin, Charles Fort, unexplained, aliens, related topics and on you can go.
When it comes to UFOs, people
usually fall into three categories. First, there are the disbelieves or
skeptics. I can sympathize with these good people because they have not pursued
the subject, nor do they wish to. I would advise a look into the matter since
it affects all of our lives even though we are little aware of it.
Second, there are the
believers and they must be divided into two categories. One type of these
believers have pursued the subject and arrived at the logical conclusion that
these UFOs are real with real intelligence inside. Those of the other category
are comprised of the ones who will believe anything just because they want
to believe. I have no sympathy for them.
Third, there are the people
who know the truth because they have in some way been part of an encounter.
These are the people who have been told never to talk about it by our
government. Others have kept quiet because of the ridicule visited on those who
try to describe their experience. The silence has been broken recently by many
of these people because they are now old, wiser and they do not fear the
punishment of our government. They also think you need to know because
this is a most, if not the most, important activity on our earth.
I just happen to be in the
knower class.
As a knower, and not a
believer, I have done a great deal of thinking and analyzing of the issue. They
(the watchers) have been here from the earliest of times. Zecharia Sitchin in
his Earth Chronicles, Book One, The 12th Planet, translates and comments
on the earliest of writings by the Sumerians. The Sumerian tablets claim that
these aliens (watchers) were the ones who made the earth inhabitable again
after some kind of catastrophe. It was they who manipulated our genes and DNA,
mixed them with their own genes and DNA and produced modern man. (Our
scientists are now thinking about, and maybe doing the same thing.) We were remade
in the likeness of these particular aliens. Hey, I am just relaying what the
Sumerians claimed.
This is not to say these
things are true, but according to Sitchin’s translations, we were made (or
remade) by the aliens to work for them in their mining activities and
farming. We were given strong bodies, long life, and a mind capable of
developing a good level of intelligence so we could follow orders and make
decisions about the work. In other words, we were made to be smart workers for
the aliens. (I think slavery is a fairly good word here.) We all know from
the Bible and from ancient Egyptian and other sources, that the ancient people
were supposed to have lived very, very long lives and accomplished many
remarkable things.
But modern (remade) man was
also given the ability to repopulate himself. Bad mistake on the part of the
aliens! Man began to spread across the face of the earth. Some of the men learned
many of the secrets of the aliens (their science and technology) so they used
this knowledge to fight each other. And then some of them rebelled against the
aliens. All kinds of trouble broke out and since the aliens didn't know what to
do about it, they began to take sides. Soon the people were fighting each
other, and the aliens were fighting each other for mining rights, territory and
the like. At last, the head alien got tired of the whole mess, especially
seeing aliens fighting aliens. So, he decided to do away with the whole project
and let the people of the earth be destroyed by a foreseen catastrophe. The
catastrophe was allowed to happen and the aliens offered no defense of the
earth. It was actually a tidal wave following a cosmic incident that swept over
the earth destroying most of the people. However, some of the aliens notified
some of their favorite people and many were saved from the cataclysm in all
parts of the world, some on purpose and some by accident and good luck.
At this point, the project
was canceled for a long time and the Sky People (as they were called) moved
away.
These early aliens were not
called gods. They were called "Sky People" and "Lofty
Ones." They were also called lords (or rulers). It was only after many
translations (or mistranslations) that these aliens were referred to as gods.
For another example of the mistranslation, the words "Ring of Lights"
or "Hammered Out String of Pearls" in Sumerian meant, The Asteroid
Belt. The term was finally translated as "heaven" in the Jewish Old
Testament. So when the Jewish Bible says the earth was chaotic and was made
habitable by the gods, they were really saying the earth was made ready for
farms and cities by these watchers or aliens. According to the Sumerians, it
seems these aliens cleaned up the mess the earth was in and brought about a
planet that could nurture life and civilization, as we know it. Now I count
those early aliens as good guys. They did some good things for selfish
purposes.
The Sumerians and many early
ancient peoples claim that they were taught language, writing, agriculture,
government, laws, masonry, mechanics, science, math, astronomy, and indeed,
they were taught most of our modern concepts by these whom we call gods and
whom they called the Sky People, or Lofty Ones, or Lords and such. We have
discovered that civilization bloomed suddenly in Sumer, Egypt and other places
with no indications of a gradual development. These stories and tales are so
prevalent in ancient literature that it is impossible to just ignore them and
pass them off as wishful thinking. This approach to unraveling ancient
artifacts and ancient stories about massive buildings, powered flight, space
flight and the many other unbelievable claims, seem to be perfectly logical -
if we include these watchers and their science into the matrix of the matter.
Beyond doubt, man has
deteriorated from those former days. Many things have altered our genes and DNA
over the thousands of years since we were remade. We are now in the process of
being able to rectify some of these alterations and return our bodies and minds
to the earlier stages and make our progeny into smarter, stronger, healthier
and longer living beings than we are today.
Now, let us look at the
present and our relations with these aliens and their UFOs. It would be nice
and easy if we were only dealing with one alien race. But we are not. We are
dealing with several and each one of these alien races want different things
from this earth. We cannot even call it "Our Earth.” There seems to be at
least one race of aliens who claim our planet as their project. Guess which
one? There are several species of aliens who are presently seeking space,
experiments and supplies on earth. There have even been sightings of UFOs in
dogfights in the upper near realms of space around earth. Some have set up camp
in the deep oceans and in remote mountains of South America, Asia and other
remote areas.
THERE IS A SPACE GOVERNMENT
Here is my speculation on
the subject. If you have these different species of aliens running around in
space, you must have some rules about who can do what, and where and when they
can do it. To have rules, you must have some meetings of the different aliens
and they must agree on the rules. Such a meeting must be official, so you must
have a council or government to whom the aliens must submit and which has the
power to enforce the rules. You must have rules that determines when and if a
planet is inhabited by intelligent beings. You must know what you can and
cannot do there. You must have rules about what you can teach an intelligent
but ignorant race. You must have rules about the different levels of
technology, science and social and moral development. You must know just how
far and how fast a race may be "leaped frog" into higher levels of
science. There must be rules about what type of agreements you can make with an
intelligent but ignorant race. You should not be able to buy Manhattan for
twenty-four dollars worth of beads. In other words, there must be at least a
galactic government.
Even aliens need supplies of
some sort. So there must be places (planets, asteroids, etc.) where they can
get the supplies peacefully. There must be places where repairs can be made,
outposts built, navigation beacons established, and I would assume there must
be some kind of police force in many places. Some of the aliens will come from
places similar to earth. Some will come from water planets and some from sulfur
based air. Some may even be from methane air. There must be safe areas where
these aliens can be safe in the same place at the same time.
These are simply logical
deductions. The bases for these deductions are derived from the information
available from the researchers in this area and those who are presently working
with this situation. Some of this information comes from the vigorous cover ups
and denials put forward by portions of our government, and that in the face of
incontrovertible facts and eyewitness accounts (by civil, military, pilots,
astronauts and other scientific and intelligent people). There is very strong
evidence, and even inside witnesses who affirm that certain portions of our
government has made deals with some of the aliens. No small portion of our
technological development in the last fifty years has come by studying certain
alien artifacts and suggestions from the aliens. They have not done the actual
work For us because that would be against the galactic rules. They have just
guided our thinking and goals.
WHY?
It must be to the
advantage of one or more of the alien groups! Which means, it may also be to
the disadvantage of some other alien groups. Is this process of some aliens
being dissatisfied with the arrangements other aliens have made with earth man
going to spark a war on earth? I am afraid this is so. The rules of the
galactic government would not allow the aliens on either side to actually
engage in war with such a backward world as our earth. However, the galactic
government would allow the aliens to place ideas and concepts over which man
would certainly go to war with each other. What is man willing to go to war
over? How about land, oil, economics, politics and such? Those are all high
cards in the hands of the aliens, but what is the real ACE in the deck? The
real ACE in the deck is:
RELIGION
Religion is the very lowest
and emotionally the strongest form that man's imagination can take. It is a
form of self-hypnosis. It is a form of delusion and ignorance. As a result, it
is also the most volatile and base emotion of the mind. This religious emotion
is even greater in some than the emotions of human love. The emotional control
that religion has over men's mind will turn civilized men into raving killers
blindly following the orders or suggestions of their leaders. These religions
started as a result of man’s misunderstanding of the purpose of these aliens on
earth and of misunderstanding Who they were. Men who misunderstood, or who were
making up religions, did so in order to rule over other men. They warped the
teachings of the aliens.
The religion that men first
made up was not for the worship of some overall creator god. Instead, it was a
semi religion based on the rule of the aliens who hired work and received ten
percent of their production. These men made the aliens themselves into objects
of worship. These men became the go-between for the aliens and represented and
passed on instructions from the aliens to men. It did enable the aliens to
withdraw from the dangers presented by the earth people who wanted to share in
the power of the aliens. This type of religion was a method used to control the
people.
These inventors of religion
wanted to make servitude to the aliens (lords or minor gods) a matter of
conscious and produce guilt and fear if the slaves got out of line. The purpose
was to keep the people in awe and in servitude to the aliens (lords) so the
religions and their leaders could profit. (Nothing basic has changed since that
time.)
However, the aliens made a
bad mistake. They engaged in sexual arrangements with some of the women that
appealed to them. Thus was born a separate race of half man and half alien.
This race was considered to be gods by men. These half-breeds and their
offspring became the kings and rulers of ancient times. They had a type of blue
blood and the concept has remained with us to this day. Thus, the original
aliens and their half-breed children became the Lords, Kings and Gods of early
times.
Ten percent of the produce
and production of the earth's people was to be presented as gifts of thanks to
the aliens (lords) and to their off spring. Temples (very big and elaborate
complexes) were built to house and separate the aliens and half-breeds from the
people. In these temples were stored and used, the technology of flight,
communication, science, medicine and weaponry. Smart and favored men were
selected to be the go-between with the aliens and the earth people. These men
evolved into families and cults of priests.
Seeing that man was
beginning to abuse and selfishly misuse the technology, science and information
given by the aliens, they allowed a catastrophe to happen in order to remove
the technology and science from mankind.
After the flood (tidal wave)
and these aliens left earth in the hands of the half-breeds, the concept of
religion remained. Enterprising men seized on the opportunity to control the
people. By using some of the remaining technology, they maintain the
slavery-hood started by these priest men - for the good of the people.
If the aliens didn't know at
first the results of the use of religion, it soon became important knowledge to
them. It also became the knowledge of some smart (and maybe greedy) men. So,
the result of religion down through the ages has been its ability to use its
guilt and fear tactics to control people. This control makes every religion
extremely wealthy, especially for the more popular religions. In addition to
wealth, this control furnishes crusaders, soldiers and manpower to fight
against other religions and the territory controlled by the other religions.
Their particular religion becomes the only legitimate government for the
believers who are brain washed and hypnotized into believing its wild and
baseless claims.
We return to the present.
This world (thanks to some scientific help from the aliens) is scientifically about
ready to enter space in fifty or so years. Space travel would make earth
eligible for membership in the galactic council before long. Some of the aliens
do not want us in space because of our aggressive and hostile behavior. Others
do not want us there since such entrance into space would give earth a new and
different classification. This would cause the aliens to stop some of their
experiments and utilization of earth’s resources.
THE PROBLEM
Here is the problem. All
aliens in space have solved the problems of living with differences of opinion,
differences of species and differences in their societies. The number one
problem they have had to overcome is the appeal, prestige and power of personal
and collective greed.
The greatest problem they
have solved is how to handle the terrible and powerful forces of nature without
destroying themselves.
Without doubt, they
discovered how to split the atom and how to fuse hydrogen. Had they used this
knowledge for warfare, greed, opinion and dominion over others, they would have
destroyed themselves and would not be in space. They discovered greater and
greater universal forces that could have been used for good or bad purposes.
Those who are in space used those forces for good, or at least for non-aggressive
and intrusive purposes. Those, who did not solve these problems, are not in
space or they are not allowed to spread their aggression to other planets. They
probably no longer exist or live in caves or confinement.
Opinion (belief) is the real
driving force of greed, power, destruction and dominion over others. Opinion is
based on an absence of facts. If there are facts upon which to base a
conclusion, it is no longer just an opinion, but is now considered a truth. On
earth, the most volatile opinion (belief) is Religion and Politics. Belief
fosters government opinion, race opinion, educational opinion, economic
opinion, elitism and a multitude of other harmful and disruptive beliefs and
activities.
So, the different aliens who
do not want man in space and who want different things from this earth have
allowed man to selected his own weapons of self-destruction. Man now has his
own means of self-destruction or his own means of solving his problem of greed
and opinion (belief). Mankind is now forced to select between survival and
joining the galactic government or of self-destruction. The weapon of
destruction is not death rays, nuclear energy, disease and such though man now
possesses these weapons. The weapon man has chosen to use is religion (a
powerful weapon when used on those who do not think, who let their religious
and political authorities tell them what is true and what is not true).
I speculate that one group
of aliens wants us to graduate into space as a traveling and trading people.
They want us to discard our opinions, our hostilities and our aggression. They
want us to become an honest clear thinking people placing knowledge and truth
on the throne of our lives and pitch “opinion” on to the trash pile of history,
as they must have done.
Another group of aliens wait
to see if we delay or destroy our chance of getting into space and into the
trading status. So, one alien group (sometimes called demons or devils) is hard
at work getting the various religions upset and mad with one another. They are
hoping to bring about a world war in which the science and technology of earth
will be set back hundreds of years. They are doing some tricks (miracles) to
attract people and to render validation of these religions. This is happening
in the Christian religion in the USA and in the Muslim religions in the far and
Middle East. Are you aware that the Muslims are daily having claim after claim
of miracles and visions in which they are instructed to cleans the earth of the
evil religion and peoples of Christianity? Their visions are telling them that
real peace and prosperity will only come when the evil Satan (USA and
Christianity) is cleansed from the face of the earth and when all knees are
bent and all heads are bowed to Allah. Slavery anyone?
Yes, Virginia, there are
powers out there that want you to become a slave to their concepts, beliefs and
superstitions. There are those who are bent on controlling your future and
destiny. They are only held in check by the galactic council and by people who
refuse to be sucked into their plans and schemes. The main defense we have
against these aliens is the use of our natural thinking ability and the
rejection of ALL religious propaganda. We must reject all of their lies, all of
their plans of salvation, all their plans for a peaceful earth, all their
claims to divine guidance, all of their governments and all of their promises.
Their guidance is not divine!
The UFOs are real. The
aliens are real. The battle over earth is real. The scientific and
technological advances on earth are real. The hatred of one religion against
other religions is real. The plans for earth's great warfare are real. The
ability of the aliens to manipulate earth changes is real. The gullibility of
most of mankind is real. The ability of most men to believe the unbelievable is
real. The ability of the aliens to perform what seems like miracles (tricks of
science) is real. All of this and more is real.
There is only one thing that
prevents the outbreak of a mankind destroying war from breaking out. That
restraint is the few honest clear thinkers in our world today. Also, the rules
and restraints of the Galactic Government on the activities of the aliens
prevent them from physically helping one or the other side. That means we still
have time to break the hold that religion and the aliens have on us. But with,
or without the aliens, we are still capable of doing what some of the aliens
wish us to do. That is, to destroy our civilizations and maybe destroy
ourselves.
So, Atheists must use their
knowledge, position and power to alert this nation and world to the evils of
the religions and the potential of the religions to destroy all of earth and
its people. War has often been the favorite method of religion to increase its
wealth, increase the territorial claims and make converts to their
superstitions. This concept of evangelization by war and force must stop. Also,
the concept of making converts by telling lies must stop. The concept of
placing fear and guilt into the minds of little children in order to convert
them must stop. If the religions would only decide to tell the truth about
their religions that would be the biggest step we could possibly take toward
having peace on earth. That is the biggest step we could possibly take to
insure our future integration into the space community. Religions are an alien
invention taken over by man and used to control us.
I am sure this information
has come as a shock to you, even if you are an Atheist. But the sad fact is,
the basics outlined here are true. And even if the UFO and the alien parts were
not true, the religious part is very true and you know it (on all religions
except yours).
Now get on your search
engine and look up these things for yourself. You will be amazed at how much
scientific and historical information exists on the Internet. No generation, up
to now, has had the opportunity to be on the inside information tract like you
have right now. Get to it before the government discovers a way to take this
right away from you.
But the important matter is
not just the information. It is how you arrange and interpret these things and
how you bring one bit of information into the arena of another similar or even
different bit of information. In addition, you must approach the subject as
though you had NO preconceived ideas or conclusions about the subject. This is called
honest in scholarship. The universe is more amazing and complex that any
religion can possibly conceive.
