This idea of people panicking like a hen house being visited by a fox has been amplified since War of the Worlds.
They even hired the Brookings Institute in the 1950's to explain how "that is the way it is" to the media and congress. They've been pretending that was 'the final word' ever since.
Thought Phage made a good post here about the Brookings Report.
Also an interesting statement below from Victor Marchetti (once executive assistant to the Deputy Director of the CIA).
• 'The purpose of the international conspiracy is to maintain a workable stability among the nations of the world and for them, in turn, to retain institutional control over their respective populations. Thus, for these governments to admit there are beings from outer space attempting to contact us, beings with mentalities and technological capabilities obviously far superior to ours, could, once fully perceived by the average person, erode the foundations of the Earth's traditional power structure. Political and legal systems, religions, economic and social institutions could all soon become meaningless in the mind of the public.
The national oligarchical establishments, even civilization as we know it, could collapse into anarchy. Such extreme conclusions are not necessarily valid, but they probably accurately reflect the fears of the "ruling class" of the major nations, whose leaders (particularly those in the intelligence business) have always advocated excessive governmental secrecy as being necessary to preserve "national security." The real reason for such secrecy is, of course, to keep the public uninformed, misinformed, and, therefore, malleable.'

Why, I ask you, is believing that fulfilled prophecies point to a creator God crazier than your theory that the Jews are orchestrating this all through the centuries with help from Ancient diabolical somethings that I don't believe you ever defined?

As far as I can tell, religious people are waiting on the grand finale and will simply see any weirdness as something to tick off on the apocalypse bingo card.
In fact, I have not seen one believer talking violence or having their beliefs threatened by the possibility of discovering intelligent extraterrestrials.
Perhaps the government feels that it is a good enough crisis not to be wasted in order to implement something like the Patriot Act 2.0?
The governments thrive on manufactured crisis as a necessity to function these days.

Christians will see them as demonic and evidence of the end times

It's not average believers who are to blame for TPTB'S actions but because their actions loosely follow the script of the end of times believers will interpret those actions to justify their beliefs and therefore adopt an attitude of 'there is nothing anyone can do about it except see it play out because it has been foretold' .
So in essence TPTB will be allowed to do whatever they want because 'muh endtimes'.
And just like that evil will flourish while good men sit around and do nothing.
What if I told them God wants them to kick ass and chew bubblegum for his glory in this life and not waste the gift of life they have been given?
What kind of lambs are willingly lead to slaughter?
The Alexander UFO Religious Crisis survey addresses just one of many problems facing the UFO Community: how would organized religions in the United States react to confirmation of contact with an advanced extraterrestrial civilization. The results of this pilot survey are straightforward and remarkably simple. The theologians surveyed would not feel their faith and the faith of their congregation would be threatened. The following results, based upon a 23% return (230 surveys) should have a significant and meaningful impact on the UFO Community, its doctrines and attitudes.

Oh, there are intelligent non-humans. Entities, Principalities, and Powers beyond humans. Fallen Watchers who claimed to be Gods, Nephilim offspring etc.

Here you are believers, trying to convince us natural born non believers that a big guy is full of love and compassion...only to those who obey him.

I don't get it, why would the religious get violent over such a disclosure?
Do any religious books say only one intelligent race was created?
Even the angels were created. They are not from earth.
Yeah, I don't get this at all.

I simply read the OP and so am responding only to that.
Most religious people I know, and I know thousands do not fear "extraterrestrials". Nor would the revelation of extraterrestrials shake their faith in God, who in their eyes made a huge universe with many planets and solar systems.
As a matter of fact, every single religious person I know says and believes that God could easily have created many other habitable planets with other life forms on it, even intelligent.
FYI: Many planets with intelligent life is the basis of the Mormon faith, which I am not but have friends who are. Mormons definitely believe in extraterrestrials and it would only make them thrilled and reinforce their faith to discover it is true.
While it is true that today's Democratic Party run government seems to openly, despise, fear religious people, even hate them. AOC's latest paranoid explosion about the Super Bowl commercial is an eye opening reflection of that hate.
I don't know of any religious people who say there could not be intelligent life on other planets.
The people who fear religious people are projecting their own fears on others, as is typical of human beings.
Whatever a human is doing wrong, or whoever they persecute for what they perceive the other believes, is normally what they are secretly doing wrong or secretly feel guilty about believing. I have found that true over and over in my long life and experience. I have seen many people persecute others for what they think they are, or are doing, only to turn out later, when all is revealed, to be obsessed and guilty of what they accuse others of.
For example: liberals and progressives are the most intolerant people around, while insisting they are the most loving, tolerant, intelligent, social justice loving people on the face of the earth. Liberals openly do their best to persecute, suppress and oppress anyone who dares to disagree with the slightest bit of liberal ideology. They deem people who disagree with them on issues, racists, sexists, homophobes, deplorable (Hillary), people who cling to their guns and bibles, (Obama), and even domestic terrorists (Biden). Liberals urge tech companies to censor all who don't agree with the ideology of liberalism, (demanding tech deem disagreement with Democrats to be hate speech or misinformation). They frequently demand the firing of those who simply disagree with their political ideology calling them spreaders of misinformation and hate speech.
Meanwhile, AOC calls a commercial about love, fascist.

The reason is, because the governments and military honestly do not know what they are
10+ years ago when I first encountered orbs of light, the U.S Military was all over my home city in Australia
They were chasing these lights around on the ocean, and in the skies
I've seen the orbs play with the fighter jets. They sit and wait for them to catch up, before flying off ahead of them. Covering a distance in 1 or 2 seconds, that would take the fighter jet a full minute or more to catch up
Even their weapons would be as slow as a snail in comparison. I do not see it as even being possible to shoot them down. I think they could literally fly circles around the missile
I've communicated directly with these orbs, who identified themselves as "Anunnaki", and they told me very definitively, that they have no interest in communicating with any religion, military or government
They told me, they have no interest in anyone who, quote, "has fear in their hearts". Nor with anyone who seeks to identify, use, or align with them for selfish reasons
Something to do with those in power being "the deceivers"
They refer to them as "Those with their cup already full". Which I take to mean, they cannot be taught. So it pointless even communicating with them
They watch them, keep an eye on them, but they will not communicate with them
On the contrary, as far as I'm aware, they go out of their way to ensure the governments and military have nothing of the things many people think they do
To the point of altering the fabric of reality if needed, or ensuring that their technology does not work, to keep them impotent
The only reason they said they communicated with me, is because I was not afraid of them and I went out of my way to work out a way to communicate with the orbs when I saw them, instead of just freaking out and/or trying to film them
Something I'm told made me "Interesting" to them. Because very few people (none, I'm told) have the presence of mind to try establish communication when they see them
They've taught me allot over the last 10 years about everything. Misunderstood principles of physics, religion, philosophy, creation, this world, future tech, everything
What is coming is nothing like the fear and propaganda we are being sold
Religion will end, because the Bible will be correctly translated, and it will be irrefutable, compared to the current version
You do not need worry about them
Even if it came down to the situation you are suggesting, they would only kill themselves out of fear anyways
Look at that took place when "War of the worlds" was broadcast and people thought it was real
They killed themselves and their children. Things such as this
They will only hurt themselves, so I wouldn't worry

White House tells governors 'thousands' of objects in the skies aren't aliens, could be used car lot balloons.
The flying objects number in the 'hundreds, if not thousands,' and could be anything from 'used car lot balloons' to aircraft launched by commercial enterprises, a White House official said.
The astrological ages are based on the precession of the equinoxes and the backwards wobble of the earth's axis through the constellations, which lie in a circle around the earth along the ecliptic, the belt of the equator. Ages are measured by the wobble of the earth's axis as the North Pole points down towards and marks each age or constellation in succession. This wobble takes 25,920 years to complete, and in one complete cycle there are twelve ages of 2,160 years each. Currently, that marker points to the constellation Pisces, and we are said to be in the 'Age of Pisces'. These ages flow backward through the astrological signs as the earth's axis wobbles in a precessional or backward direction through the zodiac.

Oh really?
How about the money changers in the temple?....... LOL!
Those orbs are demons. Having one speak to you is nothing to bragg about. They have spoken to me, and I told them to get out. One appeared in human form 4' from where I am right now.
God destroyed their flesh, and next he will destroy their souls. We are warned not to communicate with them. Every problem on this planet was brought about by their silly ass games.
