THE GROWING REALIZATION THAT UFO/ET PHENOMENA COMES FROM THE EARTH, IS MALICIOUS, AND DEMONIC IN ORIGIN
THIS INFO PROVIDED BY AN IN SEARCH-OF.COM MEMBER TO ME.......
I'm not firm on the issue of the "Greys" or other aliens being demons, but I think there's a very good chance of that. The Heaven's Gate crowd, as well as some very similar cults, make the idea look even more likely. I don't think that excludes the probability that a genuine agenda of abduction, breeding, and mind control of some sort is happening.

MANY THINK BIBLE EXPLAINS ALIEN ABDUCTION
[from Michael Lindemann's CNI News]
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - Religious leaders are alarmed about a growing train of thought that "wants us to reject traditional
Judeo-Christian ideas about God" in favor of benign "Space
Brothers" who will save humanity from itself, writes journalist
William M. Alnor in his book, "UFOs in the New Age" (Baker,
Grand Rapids, Mich.).
[Note from Sparks: note the subtle frame-up by the journalist..."Religious leaders"... "alarmed" plants the thought in the reader that their primary concern is that their incomes could be hurt if people start believing in little gray men....HOWEVER, I have no Church I'm asking you to attend, give me or it any money or die for. Keep your money. Protect your family and neighbors.]
Alnor concludes this new belief is a set-up for apocalyptic
deceptions predicted in the Bible's Book of Revelation. He's
not alone.
Magazine articles, books and even evangelists are engaging in
Bible-based speculations about the nature and intention of
entities that allegedly kidnap, paralyze, physically abuse and
sometimes sexually molest victims -- many of whom come to
believe the experience was worthwhile.
"The similarity between the abduction experience and demonic
possession is very, very close," says Joe Jordan, Brevard/Volusia state [section] director for the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON). "These experiences these people are having are real. It does exist. But you just need to understand what's doing it."
Jordan and his partner, Wes Clark, have begun a research group called CE-4 (close encounters of the fourth kind), dedicated to studying alleged alien abductions. Its 15 members also belong to MUFON, but "nothing we do is necessarily sanctioned by [MUFON leadership]," says Clark, a quality control engineer at Kennedy Space Center.
Jordan, who works in product development and engineering for Sea Ray Boats, speaks calmly, his voice firm. Kooks don't get to be state [section] directors with science-oriented MUFON. "This whole thing is spiritual warfare. And the method the enemy's using is deception. Strong deception."
Last year he focused on CE-4 research, and encountered a Central Florida abductee whose otherwise-typical experience had one unique aspect. "They had stopped the experience while it was happening. In all the time I've been researching, I'd never heard that before."
Jordan and Clark swear they have three verifiable cases in which apparent abduction experiences were halted by believers who called on the name of Jesus. And Jordan says as many as 400 cases may be documentable nationwide.
"It makes you wonder: If these beings are extraterrestrial at all,
why would they respond to that name?" Jordan asks. "We think we found the answer in the Bible, in Mark 16:17 where Jesus said, 'In my name, they shall cast out demons.' That seems to be exactly what we came across."
Suddenly, the religious press is full of articles about UFOs.
The May cover story in Central Florida's "Discovery Christian"
newspaper focused on UFOlogy theology, interviewing Berkeley-trained scientist and Christian author John Weldon.
July's "Charisma" magazine, a 200,000-plus circulation monthly,
featured Christian evangelist and author Paul McGuire's article,
"Alien Invaders." McGuire cites the evolution of author Whitley
Streiber -- from his first alien contacts in "Communion",
"Transformation" and "Breakthrough" to his latest titles, "The
Secret School: Preparations for Contact" and "Evenings with Demons"
-- as an example of a progressive deception.
"Both the seemingly benign and the hostile entities ... will play
an increasing role in preparing a segment of humanity for the
reception of the Antichrist," writes bestselling author David
Allen Lewis and Robert Shreckhise in "UFO: End-Time Delusion" (New Leaf Press, 1991).
The cover of "The Agenda: The Real Reason They're Here" gives this premise: "In the near future, God will evacuate millions of people from the horrors to follow. Aliens will take the credit"
for the Rapture, writes B. Fox, a MUFON researcher who resides in of all places -- Roswell, New Mexico.
Back in Titusville at the CE-4 office in Wes Clark's home, Joe
Jordan and Clark continue to study, research and solicit abductees through the Internet and with classified ads in MUFON's UFO Journal.
"The one thing we can offer people in this field is hope. Hope
that they can stop this experience," Jordan says.
