Another well-known American author, lecturer and paranormal
researcher who has become convinced of a connection between
spiritual/psychic phenomenon and the UFO experience is Brad
Steiger. Since the 1950's, he has authored several thousand
articles and over one hundred and fifty books, many of which
have dealt with paranormal and spiritual topics. Some of his
book titles include "Revelation - The Divine Fire", "Touched
By Heaven's Light", "Project Bluebook", "Strangers From The
Skies", "The Rainbow Conspiracy", and "UFO Odyssey". On his
website, bradandsherry.com, Mr. Steiger presents seventeen
personal theories which may explain the UFO phenomenon. We
have been, or will soon be, discussing some of them in this
series.

One of Steiger's ideas, with which I can personally agree,
revolves around theories numbers nine and fifteen, in which
he proposes that the intelligences behind the UFO experience
are not from other planets, as many people commonly believe,
but rather from an unseen dimension, a spiritual world, that
co-exists with our own physical world. He states:

----- Begin Quote -----

9. Other Dimensional Visitors: The Visitors come not from a
faraway world in our solar system or any other, but from an
adjacent space-time continuum, co-existing here on Earth,
but on another vibrational/dimensional frequency or level.

15. The Supernatural: The UFO intelligences are the same
entities who are described in the scriptures of so many
world religions as angels - both the messengers of God and
the fallen armies of Lucifer. The entire UFO mystery may be
the continuation of the struggle between the two warring
factions of angels for the souls of humankind.

----- End Quote -----

Steiger is also credited with the following comment in "Blue
Book Files Released", in Canadian UFO Report, Vol. 4, No. 4,
where he again affirms his belief that these beings may have
their origin in another dimension which co-exists right here
on our own planet:

----- Begin Quote -----

"We are dealing with a multidimensional paraphysical
phenomenon which is largely indigenous to planet earth."

----- End Quote -----

As I explored Mr. Steiger's website, I did become alarmed by
the fact that he does manifest some obvious New Age leanings
in his writings; yet, at the same time, he also offers some
clear warnings regarding the serious dangers associated with
attempting to make contact with the spiritual world. He does
not say that such attempts should not be made; simply that
anyone who makes such endeavors, should be extremely careful.
Personally, I feel that Mr. Steiger should not be encouraging
anyone to meddle with the Spiritual World in any way; period.
What I also found rather troublesome, is that Steiger seems
to harbor some negative feelings towards Christianity. It may
be that, like myself, his objections are not necessarily with
the Christian faith as a whole, but rather with the failings
of organized religion, which even I expose in some of my own
writings.

Mr. Steiger does appear to recognize a Higher Power which
influences and directs human activity; but, like many New
Agers, he adopts a rather liberal view, and leaves it up to
his readers to assign their own name to that Being, based
upon their personal belief system. In fact, unless I have
misinterpreted his views, he appears to support and promote
a type of New Age, One World Religion; which again, bothers
me, because many other New Agers are likewise promoting this
very same concept, and Christian doctrine is not at the core
of their beliefs. As we saw earlier, Jacques Vallée remains
convinced that promoting a new world religion is precisely
what the alleged "aliens" have in mind. Thus, Steiger, and
others like him, may be the very tools that these beings are
using to achieve their goals. In an article entitled "UFOs
Over Sacred Sites", which appeared in the June 2006 edition
of Fate Magazine, Steiger writes:

----- Begin Quote -----

"Perhaps there is a Higher Intelligence that has been
striving for centuries to bring our species into the
Wholeness, the Oneness. Perhaps the circular shape of the
UFO is a symbol of the wholeness of life in the universe."

----- End Quote -----

Putting aside my personal reservations regarding Steiger's
New Age leanings, I would like to mention that some of his
other theories are in agreement with views I shared earlier,
as proposed by Jacques F. Vallée, Bertrand Méheust, Lynn E.
Catoe and Carl Jung. There are a number of other individuals
who share these views as well. Consider the following ideas,
also offered by Steiger:

----- Begin Quote -----

10. Psychic Phenomena: The UFO phenomenon is the result of
some as yet unknown physical energy that can be activated by
the psyche, the unconscious level of the human mind. This
physical law or energy would not itself be intelligent, but
it would be able to absorb, reflect, or imitate human
intelligence.

11. Projections of human beliefs: The UFO enigma is a
phenomenon of the collective human psyche that charges to
reflect the prevailing belief structures of the time. The
UFO constitutes a paraphysical phenomenon that is related
both to the psychological state of the observer and the
zeitgeist which enmeshes the observer.

12. Psychic need: Certain of humankind's basic psychic needs
tap into psychokinetic and other paranormal energies and
create images of wee people, holy figures, and other worldly
beings. The familiar forms that these manifestations assume
have been intrinsic elements in the human psyche since very
ancient times, but they appear modern in that human
experiences perceive them in the context of ideas that the
conscious mind has acquired through acculturation.

13. Archetypes: UFOs and their occupants are quasi-real
images created by the human collective unconscious. Jungian
archetypes surface as the result of thought-field energies
that are accessible to humans through dreams, meditations,
and other states of altered consciousness. These archetypes
may, in certain instances, be directed by highly evolved
entities who seek to influence and guide human affairs.

14. The Magic Theater: Such paranormal machinations that we
associate with UFO phenomena are the result of the "magical"
manipulations of time and space that are performed by the
entities we have dubbed "elves, fairies, devas, " and so
forth. These entities are paraphysical beings that have
coexisted with us as a companion species and appear to
participate somehow with us in an evolutionary design.

----- End Quote -----

As I noted a moment ago, there are a number of other writers
and researchers who have likewise adopted the position that
the alien-UFO experience may in fact be an Earth-bound, or
at least Earth-centric spiritual experience; and that it may
be directly associated with negative entities; that is, with
demons, and with the world of the occult. One such author is
journalist, UFO researcher and parapsychologist John A. Keel.
Most people are probably familiar with Keel due to his 1976
book "The Mothman Prophecies", which was later turned into a
movie of the same name in 2002, and which starred Richard
Gere and Alan Bates.

Similar to Jacques F. Vallée, Dr. J. Allen Hynek, and other
researchers, initially, Keel embraced the Extraterrestrial
Visitation Hypothesis; but, as with them, in his own words,
he informs us that his research led him to conclusions which
he hadn't expected. In his 1970 book "UFOs: Operation Trojan
Horse", Keel offers us the following remarks:

----- Begin Quotes -----

"I abandoned the extraterrestrial hypothesis in 1967 when my
own field investigations disclosed an astonishing overlap
between psychic phenomena and UFOs . . . The objects and
apparitions do not necessarily originate on another planet
and may not even exist as permanent constructions of matter.
It is more likely that we see what we want to see and
interpret such visions according to our contemporary
beliefs."

"The UFO manifestations seem to be, by and large, merely
minor variations of the age-old demonological phenomenon."

"The devil and his demons can, according to the literature,
manifest themselves in almost any form, and can physically
imitate anything from angels to horrifying monsters with
glowing eyes. Strange objects and entities materialize and
dematerialize in these stories, just as the UFOs and their
splendid occupants appear and disappear, walk through walls,
and perform other supernatural feats."

"The endless messages from the space people would now fill a
library, and while the communicators claim to represent some
other world, the contents of those messages are identical to
the messages long received by mediums and mystics."

----- End Quotes -----

So once again we see another researcher who has made a direct
correlation between the UFO phenomenon and the demons of old,
who apparently possess the ability to manipulate time, space,
matter, and reality as a whole.

The more I researched the UFO topic, the more I encountered
similar quotations from other notable men involved with the
academic community, who have also made a connection between
the alien-UFO phenomenon, demonism and the occult. Consider
the French astronomer, Pierre Guérin. Prior to his death in
2000, Pierre Guérin was a senior researcher at CNRS; that is,
the French National Council For Scientific Research. In his
challenging book "UFOs: The Mechanisms Of A Disinformation",
which was published just prior to his death, Doctor Guérin
predicted that the deep UFO secrecy which has characterized
American policy for many years, would continue; because, in
his view, such a revelation would be unbearable for the
general populace.

But did Pierre Guérin actually believe that UFO's were alien
spacecrafts from other worlds? Decide for yourself. In the
Vol. 25 No. 1 edition of "Flying Saucer Review", which is a
popular and influential UFO publication in Great Britain,
Doctor Guérin offers us this perspective:

----- Begin Quote -----

"[UFO] behaviour is more akin to magic than to physics as we
know it . . . the modern UFOnauts and the demons of past
days are probably identical."

----- End Quote -----

Speaking of magic, on one particular occasion, noted author
Arthur C. Clarke stated "Any sufficiently advanced technology
is indistinguishable from Magic." I've sometimes wondered if
some of the events which the Apostle John attributes to great
spiritual power in the Book of Revelation, might not be some
form of advanced technology, which he simply was not able to
comprehend in his day. Of course, the exact opposite may be
equally true; that is, what the Beast may some day attribute
to advanced scientific principles, may in fact be the result
of the demonic powers of Satan.

Returning to our topic, the link between aliens and demons
was also embraced by Gordon Creighton. Prior to his death in
2003 at the age of ninety-five, Mr. Creighton had been the
editor of FSR, (Flying Saucer Review), since 1982. But lest
one acquire the wrong impression, Gordon Creighton was not
just another UFO fringe case. Quite to the contrary, he was
a very highly-educated, (Cambridge, Paris, studied twenty
languages), world-traveled, (North/South America, Europe and
China), very serious-minded diplomat for the government of
Great Britain for most of his life. It's interesting to note
that, similar to Jacques Vallée, his interest in UFO's was
activated by his personal sighting of a UFO in western China
in 1941, while he worked at the British Embassy. Creighton
later described the unusual object as "a white disc with a
piercingly bright bluish light on top, racing through the
sky in the far west of China, near the eastern marches of
Tibet".

Although Gordon Creighton had an interest in and studied the
world's major religions, and appears to have been a Buddhist
at one time, according to my research, he was confirmed as a
Roman Catholic in his final years, which just so happened to
be the religion of his birth. The reason why I consider this
fact important, is because it may help to explain why he too
eventually concluded that the majority of UFO encounters are
probably satanic in origin. In an article entitled "Defense
Chief Warns Of 'Satanic UFOs'", The Times of London religion
correspondent, Ruth Gledhill, explains how Lord Hill-Norton,
a former "Admiral of the Fleet", has helped to found a group
called "UFO Concern"; the purpose of which is to warn others
of the satanic nature of some UFO's. In that same article,
Gordon Creighton comments about the new group, and is quoted
as having stated:

----- Begin Quote -----

"I do believe that the great bulk of these phenomena are
what is called satanic."

----- End Quote -----

About twenty years earlier, in 1976, in an editorial in FSR,
(Flying Saucer Review), Creighton more bluntly informed his
readership that "Demons . . . are here already in immense
strength". Taken together, these two quotes help to clarify
what Gordon Creighton must have been implying when, in the
1992 Flying Saucer Review Policy Statement, he wrote:

----- Begin Quote -----

"There seems to be no evidence yet that any of these craft
or beings originate from outer space."

----- End Quote -----

So the assumption here, is that if these beings are not from
Outer Space, then they must be from Inner Space; that is to
say, from another parallel dimension; the consensus seeming
to be the dark side of the Spirit Realm.

Another world-famous British writer and inventor who likewise
embraced this very same perspective, is Sir Arthur C. Clarke.
As many of you will already know, Mr. Clarke is the author of
"2001: A Space Odyssey" and its two sequels, as well as many
other extremely popular science fiction novels, such as the
"Rama" trilogy. Possessing a background in mathematics and
physics, Clarke has also written a number of technical books
over the years. In a July, 1975 New York Times Book Review,
Mr. Clarke stated:

----- Begin Quote -----

"One theory which can no longer be taken very seriously is
that UFOs are interstellar spaceships."

----- End Quote -----

As I mentioned a moment ago, Lord Hill-Norton, a former head
of the British Armed Forces, also recognized the dark nature
of at least some UFO experiences, and thus was motivated to
help found the Christian-based group "UFO Concern". While we
will be discussing Lord Hill-Norton later on in this series,
for the time being, let me to inform you that during a 1997
interview with the London-based "Church Times", which is a
leading Anglican weekly newspaper, Sir Hill-Norton pointedly
expressed the view that some UFO encounters are "definitely
antithetical to orthodox Christian belief."

In other words, Lord Hill-Norton was informing the public
that some of the concepts that have been propagated by the
occupants of UFO's, and by their followers, such as the New
Age crowd, are directly opposed to, and in contradiction to,
the basic tenets of our Christian faith. As I have stated on
many previous occasions, I have absolutely no doubt of this
point whatsoever, and I am in full agreement with it. Allow
me to remind you again that the Hebrew word "satan", which
in the New Testament Greek is "satanas", means "adversary";
or "one who withstands"; and the Devil is undoubtedly God's
primary adversary, as well as the Author of Confusion. He
knowingly, and purposely, stands against and opposes God,
and constantly questions the Authority of His Word.

That vile fiend's modus operandi is to continually confuse
people with all kinds of lies and delusions, so that they no
longer know what is true, and what is false. Satan promotes
a doctrine of relativism where there are no absolutes. After
all, when we deny God's existence, and ignore the Standards
of His Word, we in essence become our own gods, who create
our own laws and boundaries, or perhaps none at all. To see
where this defiant position leads us, just look at the sad
state of the nation of Iraq. It is a dreadful real world
reflection of what happens when we commit spiritual anarchy
against God, and reject His Rule of Law. Is it merely just a
coincidence that these "aliens" attempt to do the very same
thing through their devilish New Age teachings, where people
are taught that nothing is wrong, and everything is right,
and we each can create our own reality?

Tragically, the people who blindly accept the teachings of
these alleged "alien beings", or "Ascended Masters", as they
are also called, have been deceived into thinking that their
interaction with these evil entities is part of a positive
evolutionary process. We are told by many New Age writers,
erroneously so, that these benign "aliens" are assisting us
in elevating our consciousness, and our planet, to a higher
spiritual level, and plane of existence. From my research
over the years, it has become apparent that this dangerous
belief is quite rampant within New Age circles; and as we
saw earlier, Jacques Vallée arrived at the same conclusion.
These beings are intentionally manipulating human belief
systems for their own nefarious purposes.

In a June 1990 edition of the Journal of Near-Death Studies,
Kenneth Ring and Christopher J. Rosing, from the University
of Connecticut's Department of Psychology, reported their
findings from a study which had been conducted in order to
"assess the role of psychological factors in influencing
susceptibility to NDEs, [Near Death Experiences], and to
measure [the] aftereffects stemming from such events." This
study, called "The Omega Project: An Empirical Study Of The
NDE-Prone Personality", revolved around a mailed-out survey,
and involved one hundred twenty-eight people; seventy-four
of whom had experienced NDE's, and an additional fifty-four
individuals who possessed an interest in the topic. In their
findings, Ring and Rosing made the following observations.
Again, please note that I have added some words in brackets
in order to clarify what is being said:

----- Begin Quote -----

"There are wide-ranging and powerful, psychophysical changes
following either a UFOE, [UFO experience], or NDE . . .
[Both types of experiences involve] an increase in energy
currents in the body, mind expansion, information flooding,
and psychic abilities. These experiences reflect a purposive
intelligence . . . they are part of an accelerating
evolutionary current that is propelling the human race
toward higher [occult] consciousness and heightened
spirituality . . . What repeatedly struck us most forcibly
was the undeniable overall similarity between our two
experiential groups, UFOErs and NDErs . . . We should now
consider that despite the differences in the nature of these
experiences, they may have a common underlying source --
whatever that source may be."

----- End Quote -----

Now, I am sure that we can agree that there is nothing wrong
with people seeking a higher level of spirituality in their
lives. Undoubtedly, if more people were more spiritual, and
less worldly, selfish and materialistic, society as a whole
would be in much better condition. But it is in how this new
level of spirituality is achieved which should be of concern
to us. In their paper, Ring and Rosing describe an increase
in "psychic abilities". While they state that there is "a
purposive intelligence" behind these events, they are unable
to identify the source of the intelligence. Who or what is
causing the "psychic abilities" that these people allegedly
possess? What is the nature of this force? Is it good, or is
it evil? No gift comes without a price, and to think that it
does is foolhardy.

I believe that the central issue here with which we need to
concern ourselves, is exactly how people's lives are affected
once they've had their experiences. Does the experience draw
them to a closer relationship with God? Does it result in the
recognition that Jesus Christ is the only Lord and Savior of
their lives? In the case of people who have really had true
Near Death Experiences, I would be more inclined to believe
that their NDE may have involved "Divine Intervention"; but
this is not necessarily a given. When an individual is on an
operating table in an artificially-induced physical state, I
honestly don't know what kind of effects that might have on
their mental condition, or on their five senses. When we are
caught in that surreal world which exists between a conscious
and unconscious state, who knows what tricks our mind might
play on us. We may have a distorted perception of reality.

However, in the case of those people who have had encounters
with alleged aliens and UFO's, the very belief systems which
are espoused, and promoted, by some of these beings, give us
good cause for alarm; because as Lord Hill-Norton observed,
these teachings are quite often in contradiction to the truth
found in God's Word, the Bible.

For those of you who may not be aware of said teachings, let
me to give you a few examples. As I point out in the series
"The Nibiru Planet X Wormwood Controversy", one idea that's
promoted by some of these beings, such as the Annunaki and
the Greys, is that they are our gods and our creators. They
assert that we were genetically engineered from an earlier,
less-developed hominid line. This is a widely-accepted view
which has even been promoted by some unHolywood movies and
popular sci-fi television programs, such as "The X-Files".
Supposedly, we are an alien-human hybrid race destined to
become a slave race when the "alien recolonization" begins.
We will be discussing this topic a bit more later on in our
series.

Even more surprisingly, some of these deceptive beings claim
that they created Jesus Christ, and raised Him from the dead
following His Crucifixion. Finally, as I have mentioned in
some of my previous articles, some New Age adherents do not
acknowledge Jesus Christ as the only-begotten Son of God, or
as the only Savior of the world. In their minds, He has been
reduced to merely being another "Ascended Master", not much
better than teachers such as Mohammad, Buddha, Confucius or
any other spiritual icon or teacher of times past or present.
As Professor Vallée noted, this is obviously an attempt to
create a One World Religion which will appeal to everyone,
and offend no one. Those of you who are also Bible-believing
Christians will undoubtedly realize how blasphemous these
ungodly teachings are. They are poison for the soul.

Another quote which caught my attention can be attributed to
George Hawkins Pember; and seems to answer Ring and Rosing's
question regarding who is behind at least some of these UFO
related experiences. Commonly known as G. H. Pember, George
Hawkins Pember was a 19th century Cambridge-trained British
theologian. In his 1876 book entitled "Earth's Earliest Ages
And Their Connection With Modern Spiritualism And Theosophy",
which some people regard as his greatest work, Pember writes:

----- Begin Quote -----

"[The occultist] is brought into intelligent communication
with the spirits of the air, and can receive any knowledge
which they possess, or any false impression they choose to
impart . . . the demons seem permitted to do various wonders
at their request."

----- End Quote -----

Please take note of Pember's usage of the phrase "spirits of
the air". These spirits obviously have a leader; and as we
saw in part one, the Apostle Paul clearly told us that Satan
is the "prince of the power of the air", and the spirit that
now works in the children of disobedience. He obviously leads
the "spiritual wickedness in high places":

"Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of
this world, according to the prince of the power of the air,
the spirit that now worketh in the children of
disobedience:"
Ephesians 2:2, KJV

"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."
Ephesians 6:12, KJV

Is it any wonder then that these dark spiritual forces have
been seen in the sky all around the world for millennia? Is
it any wonder that many astronauts have likewise seen them
high above the Earth as they have carried out their various
missions?

Please also notice that G. H. Pember states that the spirits
of the air not only possess the power to impart knowledge,
(just as the Fallen Angels did in the Book of Enoch, and as
Satan claimed to do in the Garden of Eden), but he also says
that these demons have the power to deceive humans, as well
as to perform wonders at their request. Upon reading Pember's
comment, I was immediately reminded of a verse from the Book
of Revelation regarding the miracles of the False Prophet:

"And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of
those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the
beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they
should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a
sword, and did live."
Revelation 13:14, KJV

So as I have pointed out before, Satan and his demons indeed
possess the ability to perform "lying wonders", in order to
deceive their followers. Is it possible then that these same
demonic forces are the true source of the elevated "psychic
abilities" spoken of by Ring and Rosing? We will be taking a
closer look at these Endtime events later on in this series.
As you will come to understand, there is a close correlation
between UFO's, the occult and Endtime prophecy. Perhaps you
are already beginning to see it.

To fully grasp the importance of Pember's remark, and how it
relates to our current discussion, you need to realize that
the occult, (mysticism, shamanism, spiritism, demonism), and
UFOlogy, are confusingly bound together in an odd potpourri
of ideas which today is called New Age thought. This marriage
of the occult, psychic phenomena and UFOlogy is recognized by
a number of writers and researchers such as Jacques F. Vallée
and Carl Jung, as we have already seen. Some of you may also
be familiar with the weather manipulation work that has been
conducted by New Zealander, Trevor James Constable. Known to
most people as Trevor James, he spent a large portion of his
almost fifty years at sea with the Merchant Marines of three
nations, developing a system to produce rain. This system is
known as "Airborne Etheric Rain Engineering".

However, outside of meteorological circles, Trevor James is
best known for his long-time involvement with UFO research.
In regards to the importance of the occult in understanding
UFO-related events, in Volume 8, Number 1 of "Flying Saucer
Review", Trevor states:

----- Begin Quote -----

A working knowledge of occult science . . . is
indispensable to UFO investigation.

----- End Quote -----

While I don't particularly agree with Trevor's reference to
the occult as being a science, nevertheless, his point is
made. Sociologists David Stupple, Ph.D. and William McNeece
concur with Trevor's view. In their discussion "Contactees,
Cults, and Cultures", which is now a part of the 1979 Mutual
UFO Network's, (MUFON), UFO Symposium Proceedings, they say:

----- Begin Quote -----

. . . studies of flying saucer cults repeatedly show that
they are part of a larger occult social world.
