What exactly makes you believe they would practice ANY religion?
I was exposed to 7 races as diffrent as a shrimp & monkey.
Its a long subject that cant be just graised upon lightly.
They are no different than people.
They might have their own cultural view of things.
But all on all they seemed for the most part.
Able to be swayed or reasoned with.
They have there priests.
Their military type beings.
The blue collar workers.
Their Dr's.
Their Technicians.
Their leaders.
Their bad players.
During my entire time in front of what I might call a panel.
I had the feeling of impending danger.
Of a emulate conflict between the beings.
In some instances I believe it was on the brink or in fact at war.
They were managing a difficult situation.
I knew I had to make the best of my time & theirs.

This fear that anything we do not know or understand will be demons,
Don't you think its possible that the only reason we fear a visitation is because of Hollywood and the media?

I prefer that folks don't put their words in my fingers.
I don't assume that everything outside of earth is demons.
That would be silly.
IF I turned out to be wrong, and yes, it is inconceivable to me . . . there would not be any great dire eternal consequences for individuals who agreed with me.
IF you turn out to be wrong, folks could end up eternally distant from God.
You seem quite happy and glib to accept that responsibility.

You saying aliens are demons as a matter of fact is assuming that anything outside of Earth is evil. If not, you wouldn't be so quick to call any alien visitation as satanic.
So you only believe because you don't want to go to hell? What gives you the right to put the idea of eternal torture into anyone's mind on the basis of them not believing the same as you?
That's some pretty ridiculous logic. "You don't like apple pie?! You are totally going to suffer forever if you don't start liking it!"
If they are here and watching us shouldn't we offer our hand out in peace instead of automatically saying they are evil?

NONSENSE.
Those are [color=CC9966]your ASSUMPTIONS and PRESUMPTIONS..
[color=6699FF]uhhh NOT mine
1. There's NO PROOF that the critters are from OUTSIDE EARTH in our time/space dimension at all.
2. SCIENTIST Dr Jacques Vallee concluded that they come from an EVIL SPIRITUAL DIMENSION . . . that may well be somehow inherently wedded to earth in some uknown way--conceivably within earth's parameters somehow.
3. My cosmology construes GOD as reigning over ALL the cosmos. The fallen angel critters and satan himself are limited in their turf, very limited--regardless of how 'above' or 'beyond' human kind currently.
4. It's a huge flaw in your lofty 'logic' to pretend to understand my thinking and yet miss it so 180 degrees out.
So you only believe because you don't want to go to hell? What gives you the right to put the idea of eternal torture into anyone's mind on the basis of them not believing the same as you?
No. Again, you are ASSUMING FALSEHOODS.
Besides, I didn't write the rules of God's cosmos. He did. Complain to Him that HE got it wrong. However, I should alert you to the fact that HE is not impressed by folks who claim HE got it wrong.
GOD IS LOVE, MERCY *AND* JUSTICE.
Otherwise NOTHING would make ANY difference.
It would make as much sense to stuff an explosive up someone's rear as to feed them a steak. NOTHING would make any difference whatsoever.
Evidently y'all are unaware that believing man to be nothing more than a rat, a pigeon, a radish or a rock HAS CONSEQUENCES.
That's some pretty ridiculous logic. "You don't like apple pie?! You are totally going to suffer forever if you don't start liking it!"
It would appear that you are not a great expert on logic.
I think I'll let that absurdity glaringly strut on its own.
So you agree that it would be a good idea to harbor some fear of them? What good would fearlessness be?
I doubt our rational fear would convince highly advanced aliens to not turn us into a pile of ashes. If they want to kill us they will, there's nothing we could do to stop it.
I don't know that they would really care what we called them or if they would make any sense of what a demon is.
IF they are not evil, don't you think us fearing them and throwing labels like "demon" at them would push them more toward killing us than us accepting them?
