Most people will probably not be interested in this topic or this book, but I've been fascinated by the UFO phenomenon for 60+ years and had my own encounter in 1971. This book has something like 3,000 reviews on Amazon and has been endorsed by some pretty heavyweight NASA, CIA and Military Intelligence types. So I wasted $10 on the Kindle edition and read it in two days.
In the Good Old Days of ufology, those who thought UFOs were angelic or demonic were dismissed as the lunatic fringe (the lunatic fringe of ufology being about as loony as things get). Not anymore. There is almost a new fad, among academics and government types who have little familiarity with the historical phenomenon, to view the phenomenon in explicitly biblical terms or something very much like that. A prominent voice is Diana Pasulka, a religious-studies academic, who struck me as a completely credulous airhead from the day she appeared on the scene: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diana_Walsh_Pasulka.
I generally regard the fundamentalist mentality as bit wacky, but books like this give me pause. Either the author of this book is a first-degree con artist, which I do not find implausible, or he is in the grip of genuine demons whom he mistakes as agents of God. If what is described in this self-aggrandizing book actually occurred - well, holy cow, I may have to join the nearest fundie sect.
I could find absolutely nothing "godly" in this book. The author is plagued by beings with red glowing eyes, who as far as I could tell impart no wisdom beyond the usual apocalyptic predictions. Orbs of light seem to follow him everywhere for no apparent purpose other than for other people to say "Wow, look at that weird orb of light!" The biggie is some fabulously beautiful visionary woman, the Lady, who sounds like a low-budget Blessed Virgin Mary and who sits on a huge stone throne on some alien realm that looks like Utah. It is from these encounters that the author seems to arrive at the conclusion that he is a chosen agent of God. He closes with a description of several "miraculous" healings he has accomplshed.
It struck me, on page after page, as pure BS. Until he developed this shtick, the author was just a North Carolina contractor whose business was collapsing around him. Yet he is taken seriously by people at NASA, the CIA, Military Intelligence, and some pretty serious thinkers in the field of paranormal studies. If he were as obviously bogus as he seems to me, it's hard to believe he could pull off the act with these people.
Ergo, I have to suspect that he and those like him may really and truly be in the grip of supernaturally demonic forces that are using the UFO phenomenon as yet another Last Days deception and distraction. This really doesn't fit comfortably with my own theology, but I can't simply deny the evidence.
