November 23, 2008I have googled and searched and I still haven't found a clear answer. I have to give a presentation in Religion class about how UFOs(ET) and Religion go together.(Not to mention I have to say the presentation in German, I'm a foreign exchage student) But please tell me in English!! anything you know, I appreciate it a lot. I want to do a good job 
thanks for the help!!!!
Here's my take.. and yes I am a Christian.
This universe we live in a massive place and it has been around for billions of years. I think it would be pretty egotistical and extremely closed minded of us to think that we are the only beings in this whole universe. When we look at it from this context, there is a very high probility that there other inteligent life forms out there. Why we haven't met them yet is a matter of debate. If we are to assume that there are such things as UFO, then we must ask the question, why would they 'discover us' and never attempt contact? It really don't make any since for them to 'buzz' our planet and never say 'Hi'.
If one believes that a supreme being (God) created this universe then one has to believe he know's about all the life that is out there. Therefore, if one believes that God created all life (since he created the universe) then it would fall to reason that he would make his presence known to all inteligent life. Why would he just tell us?
So, here's where it get's tricky. In order for any being to visit our planet they would have figure out how to defeat the laws of physics as it relates to speed and time because there are no life sustainable planets with in 100 light years from here! Now.. it could be.. that we were visited thousands of years ago from aliens that spent 1,000 years getting here and they are just now getting back home. I think that's highly unlikely.
So.. if we consolidate all of these thoughts, we can come to a single, simple conclusion. IF we get a visit by aliens from another planet, should we be surprised when they tell us stories of their religious diety that exactly mirrors ours?
Just some thoughts to get your creative juices flowing!
Good luck!

Horaayy..there are 13 comment(s) for me so far ;)
Because the Bible never mentions UFOs in the context of creation.
References :
Eze.1:4 And I looked, and, behold, a whirlwind * came out of the north, a great cloud, and a fire infolding itself, and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire.
He saw a Flying craft..no big thing.
The word "amber" in the Hebrew meaning Shinning Brass, circular.
References :
If extra terristrials exist, will their religion match ours? Will we have to spread chritisnity to the aliens? Will they have souls?
These questions will start a great amount of debate, and the only answer is that our religions are all wrong. Otherwise the bible would have spoken of E.T. life.

i think they might be demons screwing around….No it doesnt contradict what I believe cuz Satan is real and abducted ppl were probably taken by demons….He cant marry or reproduce and is jealous of humans!

UFO – are aliens – and have obviously mastered travel (time or dimensional? whatever you believe its still travel)
angels – are alien to this planet, aliens can visit earth as stated in the bible
angels = ufos
look at the story of mary, a "bright white" light shone to her
typical ufo story – bright white light shining down
if you want more on the subject. go to video.google.com
and search up Chuck Missler – The Nephilim
this is a biblical scholar who relates UFO's to angels and the significance throughout the bible.

All I can, is your able to be a Christian and believe in NASA, right? Unless you believe all the photos and stuff NASA has done were elaborately constructed out in the middle of the Arizona desert, then I see no reason why you can believe in the possibility of another life form out there. We've only managed to explore a very very very small portion of the universe. Until we explore every inch of it, we'll never know offically.

There is a group in Latin America with a seer named Hector that has been going around saying about Aliens helping people in many disasters that have been happening around the world and is also being lead by none other than Jesus. He even had a picture of WTC while exploding on 911 showing some spacecrafts hovering around to help and took most people whose bodies were never discovered and claimed that these will be among those who will come back in the end times that is soon to happen. Try searching around Mexican places.

Yes. Being a Christian is depending on Jesus Christ for salvation. It does not matter if we believe in UFOs or ETs. Believing in such things does not contradict the Christian faith.
If we ever have visitors from another planet then we will know that God created other life forms beyond our earth. Nowhere in the Scriptures does it prohibit the idea that God may have created other life forms. Anything else is just speculation because there is no proof of ET life.

Yes, you can be a Christian (trust in Jesus for your salvation) and believe in UFOs.
It doesn't contradict the Bible, per se. However, it is highly unlikely that life can live on other planets…due to unfavorable living conditions on these planets.

The only thing that makes you a Christian is the fact that you have believed and trusted that the Lord Jesus Christ has died for your sins on the cross and that He was buried and took your sins away and that He rose again the third day for your justification. You can believe in UFO and still be a Christian but if you believe all of God's Word then you would not believe in UFOs. Many Christians have not studied their Bible and are not taught anything in their churches. If there were UFOs then there would be life on other planets. If there were life on other planets then the Lord Jesus Christ would have to go and die again for their sins. 1 Corinthians 15: 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 1 Corinthians 15: 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: John 3: 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

I don't see how this would be contradictory as long as you don't lose sight of the cross. Aliens and UFO's are clouded with suspicion and there is no hard evidence to support them. Sure, the bible doesn't speak of them, but it doesn't speak of celebrating christmas either. I don't think that either of these would be bad (as a christian) as long as you keep in mind that Jesus is the son of God, He died on the cross for our sins, He was buried, and He rose again. We can argue and disagree on many things, but we cannot disagree on how God showed His love for us by dying on a cross to atone for our sins.
So, if you are fascinated by aliens and want to believe in them. Go ahead! Just don't start worshipping them or looking to them for guidance. You'll be disappointed.

Of course you can. Check in genesis, in the Bible it dicusses the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair and THEY(sons of God)took them wives of all which they chose. There were GIANTS in the earth in those days and also after that when the sons of God CAME IN UNTO THE DAUGHTERS OF MEN and they bare children to them the same (:children) became MIGHTY MEN which were of old MEN OF RENOUN. In these four short verses we see men daughters of men and another category called sons of God . Thesesons of God were fallen angels which had left theit first estate. These "fallen" angels were the demons which are mistakenly named aliens . These of course are the demons that we call alien are even now intervening even in our lives today!
