• If science can’t figure it out it can’t be real.
• I believed that for 6 years as a teenager and became an atheist at the age of 12.
• I encountered some demonic powers then and it shattered my tiny little world view.
• If there are demons and there is no God then I am in trouble.
• In the community of people that have been researching UFO’s most started out w/ that same secular world view and now are saying that there is something that is out there for sure.
• There is a consciousness that underlies all reality.
• Yes it’s God!
• Could there be life after death?
• Well yes of course Jesus told us that and proved that to us over 3,000 years ago.
• This is opening up their spiritual minds.
• Age old conversation about ETI and God.
• I carefully argue the theology of it and the history of it.
• From the beginning this was an open question and the Church does NOT and has NEVER taken a stance on this topic.
• Part 1 – History of the conversation, Historical Theology – what you want to do is not take it where it is now but admit there was a development and being from there. What has the Church in the past talked about in the past that would relate to this. Have there been any theologians that have discussed this before? In my case I was looking at pre-Christian times. 
• Part 2 – What are the particular issues and how can I add to it. Could there be intelligent creatures that were made in the image of God. If so does God plan on redeeming them? 
• Part 3 – If there were intelligent races out there how do they fit into God’s plan?
• New worlds are created every time a man sins. – Gerome
• The origin was definitely heretical but he was a faithful Christian. 
• He eventually got into the incarnation etc.
• I’m convinced if the Church in his lifetime would have said this is a no-go he would have been obedient and stopped his writings. 
• Heresy and the whistleblower – he has the credentials, he is very high up in the intelligence community. He was assigned to work w/ the UFO agencies, he had access to ALL of this information. He gave it to Congress to the Inspector General and asked them to verify the things he sent them.
• You’ve long had in the UFO community that the Vatican knows more about UFO’s than they tell people about.

• The people used to claim that people that had seizures they were possessed by demons.
• The seizure may look like a demonic manifestation but science showed us it was just a medically induced issue.
• You can’t just say that since that was a seizure there is no demons b/c we know that isn’t the case.  
• I hope that helps explain the difference there w/ UFO’s and aliens.
• Movie – 65 w/ Adam Driver
• UFO = Unidentified Flying Object Often there are things flying I cannot give the specific identity too, I might be able to tell the general Plan but type and specific model… IE most of what is seen could fall into UFO category if one want to use words oddly…Plan = Plane
