A report (timely due to recent alleged reports)

Exo-Theology: The Alien Question and God

The question may rank up there with the famous "how many angels can dance on the head of pin" level of theological debate, but it is a valuable question for those of Christian faith to contemplate. The Christian faith has many streams, some overlap and others diverge wildly as if escaping being on the same continent; the issue is thus complex.

The range of Christian thought should be viewed as a continuum. At one end are those labeled "Fundamentalist", "literal" and "hyper conservative." At the other end are those who open themselves to the "suggestions of holy writ, believe morality and ethics are largely situational and that it is up to humanity itself to pull on the bootstraps and improve themselves and their world. In the middle is a wide range of people with a great many similarities but important differences of governance, interpretation and application of faith teaching and church doctrines.

WHAT ARE DEMONS?

Most often the Fundamentalist end of the spectrum will be most likely to view the subject of "extraterrestrials" as demons, fallen angels, or evil spirits. The source of knowledge and the call to authority is the written scriptures contained in the Bible. They may argue based on two points:

1. E.T. is not mentioned in the Bible.
2. E.T. is not mentioned as being in heaven.

Since there are many specific things not mentioned in the Bible and knowledge of the content or nature of heaven is found only in the Bible, it is clear that the argument is not very strong.

Charge 1: Aliens are Demons

A demon is a malevolent spirit/entity. The Ancient Greek word δαίμων (daimōn) denotes a spirit or divine power, much like the Latin genius or numen. Daimōn most likely came from the Greek verb daiesthai ("to divide" or "distribute"). Biblically, demons are said to be fallen angels, among the many who left heaven in a revolt led by Lucifer.

These demons are, again based on textual evidence, are divided into groups in a hierarchy. Under "Satan" (Lucifer, Devil) they are organized in levels known as rulers, authorities, powers, and spiritual forces of evil (Ephesians 6:10-12).
Demons are able to "possess" to “demonize” people. The phrase of “demonic possession,” is never actually used in Scripture. (Luke 8:30).
According to Rev. 12:4 says a "vast number" of the angels joined in a rebellion with Satan against God Almighty. These fallen angels are what the Bible refers to as demons. Some suggest as many as 1/3 followed Lucifer. The Bible never says that the number was actually one-third. However, that number has been speculated by many for a variety of reasons (Isaiah 14:12-15; and 2 Peter 2:4-10).
Demons are able to appear human: take shape, form and be visible to humans (Job 4:15).
Demons may be exercised, or driven out, from a possessed person. However, this may be dangerous if not conducted by a strong faith and if not followed by stringent cleaning and spiritual discipleship for the recently de-possessed. Without proper spiritual care, the person might then be open for a seven-fold infestation (Matthew 12:45); in other words, demon may return and bring friends.
Demons confuse the truth by utilizing demonic lies and half-truths (1 John 4:4).
Those who worship idols and pagan gods are really worshipping and sacrificing to demons. Demons live to deceive people into worshipping themselves (1 Corinthians 10:20-21).
The Bible teaches that demons can inhabit animals (Matthew 8:31).
"Demons are created beings, personal, immortal and incapable of reconciliation with God." Encyclopedia of the Bible (vol. 2, Elwell, ed.).

Some use the "principalities of the air" argument. Based on a belief that Satan controls the powers of the air...things that flew in the air were often suspect. Thus, if a creature was " of the air", such as a UFO or alien occupant, they too were suspect and assumed evil. The "powers and principalities of the air" is a biblical phrase that refers to the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. The power of the air probably refers to Satan’s host of demons who exist in the heavenly sphere. The phrase is mentioned in Colossians 1:16, which states that Jesus created things "seen and things unseen, visible and invisible". The world of evil spirits is organized, and Satan is the prince of the demons or fallen angels. Or Ephesians 6:12: "For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."

The "high places" was not the issue but the spiritual wickedness that used the space; in other verses high places are equated with worship and God's presence.

HOW BIG IS GOD?

Oddly, one of the "fears" expressed in the Brookings Institute Report of implications created by the UFOs of the 1950's was that word views would be enlarged. This involved views of "space husbands" valuing the risks of space travel as opposed to the traditional value of family and home; how to convince the public that these military risk takers were still family men? Religions would be challenged if there was an encounter with an intelligent being but not disastrously so. The smaller the world view, the theology, the concept of God and the more narrow the social construct of a society or person, the greater impact and struggle they would have,

It is also clear that same source does affirm that God created the heaven and the earth (Genesis 1:1) and that "God made all things" (Colossians 1:16). It seems plausible to accept that if such alien beings are proven to exist that they were created by the same God who "created all things."

Additionally, Psalms 19:1 says the "Heavens declare the glory of God." Psalms 8:3-4 : "3 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; 4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?" Finally, Hebrews 11:3 " 3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear."

How wide is the tent of humanity? How great is the God worshipped by people of Hebrew and Christian faith? If that God is as powerful and overarching as claimed then the "Alien" or "ET" may represent yet another "stranger" to be welcomed at the gates. Remember, as such angels have been entertained...

This is by no means complete or detailed. It does begin a dialogue about the potential interaction for people of Christian faith to contemplate the issue. For a deeper look at the subject read this: "Theology and Extraterrestrials" 60.1.1.pdf (theologicalstudies.net)

“The Lord is not serious. In fact, it is a little hard to know just what else He is except loving. And love has to do with humor, doesn't it? For you cannot love someone unless you put up with him, can you? And you cannot put up with someone constantly unless you can laugh at him. Isn't that true? And certainly we are ridiculous little animals wallowing in the fudge bowl, and God must love us all the more because we appeal to his humor.” ― Ray Bradbury, The Martian Chronicles

TIME LINES

Historians know the value and import of timelines. The visible progress of event/idea and consequence. Anyone writing a biography knows it is crucial to map out the life of an individual to see the milestones and turning points that feed decisions, changes, and responses. The points at which crucial life moments intersected the larger social and historical framework.

When I first began my own deep dives into looking at the topic, I found book after book that "clumped" and rearranged events, often without dating or signposts. This leads to crating false impressions about the importance, significance, or impact of an event. It is easy to minimize the truly important and move the narrative in new directions. It is easy to hide "the big picture of the forest" by focusing on the lone tree.

For that reason, in my books I applied a chronological approach. An approach that asks the questions "what was going on?", "what new research might apply?", and "is the official narrative being totally honest?"

It is an approach that also allows for the identification of clusters, geographical patterns, and similar data to be extracted.

This macro approach also allows one to avoid cubbyhole thinking. It encourages exploring into other fields, into other work, into other ideas and then seeing logical connections or hidden links.

It is important in modern studies that this time line be examined, adding all the factors, the players, the ones with something to gain, and the ones in fear of losing something, the global issues/influences, and the micro issues/influences.

It may be crucial to all.

Another Whistle Blower Dead

New Names For the Missing/Disappeared List?

There are new names that may well deserve to be added to an ongoing missing/disappeared scientist list. They are both decades old. Yet all are happening in a very shadowy time in U.S. history when MK-ULTRA was in the background, unapproved tests of LSD, un-regulated studies in mind control and behavior manipulations were going on. At the heart of all of these is a proprietary issue of who can and who cannot know the "Secret." Public ridicule is a prime tool to silence such people, "gaslighting", drugging, intimation, threats, and other techniques have all been used.

James V. Forrestal, America’s first secretary of defense. Died at Bethesda, Maryland, at 2 a.m. on the 22nd day of May 1949. On the 60th anniversary of his death, historians urged a new look and the result was most believed he had been murdered.

It had been suggested that Forrestal, whose name appears in the much disputed "Majestic 12" document was killed to silence his going public about concerns of a secret government power sub-set getting out of control. That theory suggested he shared his concerns with close intimates, one who will end up being CIA Director under John F Kennedy (Dulles) and could have contributed to the assassination of that President due to leaking of the secret.

Other, more recent, studies by historians suggest that Forrestal kept some 15 diary notebooks and in these notebooks were facts -crucial facts - about the last days of WW2, the use of the atomic bomb, and more - that had been kept from Truman. Knowledge that might have averted use of the bomb and more. Indications are that those notebooks were removed from his home and taken to the White House and held there for a year. Cause - so they could be examined, evaluated, and perhaps sanitized.

The lingering question is - who would have ordered such a sanctioned governmental assassination?

Links: 1749628679.pdf Forestal, an academic paper looking at the odds he was murdered.

Dr. James E. McDonald. d. 1971

Ridiculed by peers for his attempts to seriously do the work of a scientist or was he manipulated to suicide or was he simply murdered.

New York Times: 1971. TUCSON, Ariz., June 15 (UPI) —Dr. James E. McDonald, nationally known University of Arizona physicist, was found dead in a desert area Sunday, an apparent suicide. He was 51 years old.

Dr. McDonald was a senior physicist specializing in clouds at the university's Institute of Atmospheric Physics and was credited with contributions to the advancement of cloud physics and weather modification research.

Authorities said Dr. McDonald had died of a head wound and that a note and a.38 revolver were found beside the body.

A Respected Scientist / Dr. McDonald, a member of the National. Academy of Sciences, was the most outspoken scientific proponent of the possibility that. unidentified flying objects might be under control from beyond the earth.

Striding in tandem to the brave work of McDonald to apply science to the unknown, to honestly do the work of a scientist was the fact that the majority of scientific work being done in the 1950-1990 time period was government funded. That meant classifications, secrets, and one hand never knowing what another hand was doing.

As I have theorized before, the outlier type abductions, aliens, and sightings reported in numerous locals (South and Central America, for example) coincide with the window of time that Gottlieb and ML Ultra were running amuck sans oversight or controls. The target was mind control and behavioral modifications for use against enemy agents. The Psychology Board had functioned on its own in the early days and when Eisenhower was elected his team restructured it addressing the oversite concerns on paper. It is right after this that there is the sudden bloom of sightings and odd accounts being collected in Central and South America.

MK-ULTRA was operated by people with the ethics of Mengele and Singer. Science for science own sake without regard to ethics or human rights and dignity. If men like Gottlieb could dose a member of their own team with LSD - without that team member knowing or agreeing - thus leading to a death, are there limits to what such a group might do to guard secrets?

FROM THE FILES: 1990's and Computer Interruptus

The recent focused and then fizzled look at the missing and disappeared scientists caused me to reflect on experiences of many doing UFOlogy (the study of UFOs).

In the mid to late 1990's the anniversary of the ROSWELL INCIDENT led to many people, me included, turning back to earlier research and earlier experiences with a settled view. Answers. We all wanted answers.

This was also the time period where there was a lot of focus on so-called "reptilian" aliens. Some were a little extreme and were very demanding that their view was the only right one. In attempting to do research, I was harassed by email from a woman living in the southwest.

This was the time of the infamous claims about Dulce Base in New Mexico emerged through presenters such as Phillip Schneider were making their stories of witnessing unground battles and vats of human body parts. Phil said if they say he committed suicide - "he didn't" and sure enough in 1996 he died. Police labeled it a suicide. His body, from autopsy photos, does appear to bear bruising as if he had been beaten or his body moved.

I created a free webpage and began discussing the Roswell case, see holes in the new government story, and urging for more truth telling after fifty years. I sent some research to CUFOS and a copy of email correspondence from Robert Todd (a man famous at the time as somewhat of a phantom in the field). My computer began to act up, suddenly the page there, and then black and back up. No power surges, nothing to explain what was happening. Then, the page showed the "blue page of death" meaning the page was no longer useable. I could reach other pages, do other things, but for 48 hours I had no access to my Roswell page.

Then...it was back...but with some differences. At the time I had a daisy wheel printer and had both backed up the contents of the page to "flopping disc" but had also printed them out on the daisy wheel printer (one long roll of papers with separation tears built in). I compared the printed to the on-screen version and some parts had been deleted...some words changed to twist the meaning. Some links had been deleted or subtly changed.

I was not paranoid...just annoyed. I took the papers, files and the web address to the public library where I worked and asked our new IT guy. He had a lot of experience in computers, the internet, and things electronical. We decided to use a public computer. I reserved one for my break and we met there at the appointed time. He had reserved the one next to me where he could access a master view of the service and the online activity. He said that I had not had the webpage opened for five minutes when he detected a "third party" was there. He attempted to kick the third party of the server and it left as another "blue screen of death" popped up.

I have to assume all that the IT guy did, I was a newbie after all, newly graduated from college, just learning all the ropes of everything.

I heard from other people in the time - through emails, talk shows, and periodicals - that they too were having similar odd happenings

Was it simply coincidence, early faulty systems designs, network overwork, or something else?

CITIZEN RESEARCH: UFO/UAP Research in Oklahoma, A Brief History

Part of a planned continuing series. Have a short state or country history you would like see shared here? Use the comments or contact form.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF OKLAHOMA MUFON

First Organized: No clear records have been uncovered but it is believed the group evolved in the late 1970’s. There was a “group” that sometimes met at a Tulsa library.

There were other groups, such as the OKC based International UFO Bureau IUFOB), launched by who were hosting conferences on the topic. Other events discussed the topic or hosted speakers such as members for the ‘Midwest UFO Group’, spearheaded by Walter Andrus, out of Texas. This is the group out of which MUFON will develop. In the early 1980’s this group is making regular speaking tours into Oklahoma. The late 1970’s and 1980’s saw regular articles in Oklahoma newspaper. People had not forgotten the many earlier events in and over Oklahoma. In the early 1990’s the group was being recognized – if with slight tongue in cheek humor – in syndicated columns syndicated carried in Oklahoma newspapers.

The world wide web was making an impact in the decade and in 1997 ads began appearing in some newspapers. They were often labeled as “UFO Web Sites” and included information about the New Hampshire Mutual UFO Network, the UFO Director and Forum and UFO Folklore (all of which appear to now be defunct). (source: Add. “Excite! UFO Websites” (Source: Brown, Gloria. Perry Daily Journal Weekender (Perry, Okla.), Vol. 104, No. 193, Ed. 1 Friday, September 26, 1997, newspaper, September 26, 1997; (https://gateway.okhistory.org/ark:/67531/metadc2258255/m1/10/: accessed May 14, 2026), University of North Texas Libraries, The Gateway to Oklahoma History, gateway.okhistory.org).

Assistant State Director, Marilyn A. Hudson.

Oklahoma MUFON Roles: CFI , Advanced. Assistant State Director, State Director.

BIO: Oklahoma MUFON bids farewell to Robert "Bob" Davis after several years of committed and vital leadership. He stepped into the State Director position when William "Mike" Six was named one of the new Regional Directors for MUFON.

Bob was a dedicated Field Investigator and masterfully stepped into the leadership role. His vast experience and passion for exploring the unknown made him an invaluable asset to our team. He brought in new skills and trained to a high level of competency the certified field investigators with which he worked. He was committed to bringing accessible and easy to use tools into investigations and introduced many of these to the betterment of the trainees and the final results.

Bob holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering and began his career as a production engineer with Philips Lighting. He later transitioned to a career spanning 39 years as an electrical engineer, designing hardware and writing software for various flight simulators. His engineering background has provided him with the analytical skills needed for investigating unexplained aerial phenomena.

Bob’s fascination with UFOs started in his childhood after reading The Report on Unidentified Flying Objects by Edward J. Ruppelt. As a teenager, his interest deepened with Chariots of the Gods by Erich Von Daniken. His approach to UFO investigation mirrors his engineering mindset—careful data collection, correlation, and teamwork are essential to uncovering the truth.
