The Bible - Aliens

If the Bible is to be believed, it describes aliens – or at least a technologically advanced civilisation masquerading as Gods – in exactly the way a pre-industrial population with no scientific points of reference would describe them. For example, when the Bible tells us about sticks that produce fire we need to think how did Native American Indians described guns when they were in a similar position. Likewise fire raining down from heaven, sandstorms, earthquakes and great noises are good descriptions of jet aircraft or the BC versions of these.

More modern versions of these Gods are Cortez apparently being confused for Quetzalcoatl himself in 1519 and, later, the Cargo Cults of WW2.

 

Alien Jesus

Jesus makes it clear that even though he is in human form, he is not from Earth. Therefore he is from somewhere else. This makes him a self-admitted alien.

Additionally, Jesus being created by artificial insemination is now more believable to us than a magical spirit although, understandably, 2,000 years ago, the reverse would have been true.

John 20:17 “Don’t cling to me,” Jesus said, “for I haven’t yet ascended to the Father. But go find my brothers and tell them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’”

What Jesus Said - Being Among Humans

Mark 9:19 Jesus said to them, “You faithless people! How long must I be with you? How long must I put up with you? Bring the boy to me.”

John 17:11 Now I am departing from the world; they are staying in this world, but I am coming to you. Holy Father, you have given me your name; now protect them by the power of your name so that they will be united just as we are.
John 17:14 I have given them your word. And the world hates them because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong to the world.
John 18:36 Jesus answered, “My Kingdom is not an earthly kingdom. If it were, my followers would fight to keep me from being handed over to the Jewish leaders. But my Kingdom is not of this world.”

 

Giant Aliens

The Bible happily describes Heavenly Beings taking human women. These Giants are 3-4m tall! They are a whole new alien species which God decided in his mercy and love to try to wipe out in the Great Flood. Scientists tell us that it is easier to mate a human being with a daffodil than with an alien as daffodils are at least from the same planet as us. This opens up questions of where we are from – including the missing link between apes and humans. But we’ll leave that debate for another day.
