Hello All...
I happened to be flipping the channels early this morning around 4 am and 
came across some religious fundamentalist table discussion.  I don't remember 
the name of the program or who the participants were, but the discussion was 
very amusing.  Seems some xtian fundamentalist nut has just written a book 
titled, 'Alien Encounters' and that was the subject of the discussion.  The 
book is really a fundy xtian book but the author said he packaged it as a 
mainstream book about alien encounters so that it is displayed in the 
bookstores in the nonfiction or science sections instead of the religious 
sections.  He claims this way more skeptics will buy it and become saved. The 
book is about that UFO's are really demons, antichrists, fallen angels, etc, 
and this is the end time when SO many will be deceived by these demons. They 
won't look like real true demons.  They will be aliens.  The nutty author 
even thinks that these aliens look just like us so that these demons can 
deceive us all the better. The nutty author claims that many religious 
leaders are really alien-demons and they are out on a mission of deception. 
The nut author claims that it is just a matter of a very short time when 
alien ships from god will rapture up the foaming true believers.  The rest of 
us will be left on the earth to deal with the demon-driven alien ships and 
have to figure out which people are really demons and which aren't.  I 
couldn't stop laughing at this fruit loop. Anyway, the name of his book is 
'Alien Encounters' and it is packaged as a mainstream book about UFO's when 
it is really a fundy nut book. Talk about xtian deception.
