Our goal in writing this series is not to document the crazy cults that have emerged since the beginning of the modern UFO era in 1947. There are plenty, and frankly they’re so obvious that you, as a discerning reader, don’t need us to tell you how far removed from reality they are. Some are relatively harmless, and but others are not, like the Heaven’s Gate cult that convinced thirty-nine of its members to commit suicide in late March of 1997 in the belief they’d be taken aboard a spacecraft following Comet Hale-Bopp.

It’s more important that we look at how the ancient astronaut/alien meme has influenced our society in more subtle ways. As we showed earlier in this series, it’s shaping the beliefs of people who have been convinced by media and academia that the Bible cannot be true, so we must look elsewhere for answers to the Big Questions.

As Christians who should understand that we’re in the middle of a war for our souls, this shouldn’t surprise us. And yet it does, because too many churches have been lured by principalities and powers—fallen angels and their demonic minions—into a modernist or postmodernist worldview, either looking to science as the only tool for revealing spiritual truth or buying into the absurd, self-refuting notion that absolute truth doesn’t exist at all.

What should concern American evangelicals is not the role played by the UFO researchers in spreading the ETI disclosure meme. That’s why they’re interested in the phenomenon in the first place. We expect that from them. No, what’s bothersome is that the government of our purportedly Christian nation has deployed a variety of agencies and operatives to sell the existence of ETI over the last seventy years.

It began early on in the modern UFO era. About two weeks before the crash at Roswell, New Mexico, made headlines, a harbor patrolman named Harold A. Dahl anchored in Maury Island Bay with his son, their dog, and two crewman. At 2:00 P.M. on June 21, 1947 (the summer solstice, coincidentally), they spotted a half dozen odd, metallic, doughnut-shaped craft hovering a couple thousand feet above them. According to Dahl, one of the ships seemed to be in trouble, with the other five circling around it as it lost altitude. A small explosion showered Dahl’s boat with hot metal, killing his dog and injuring his son. Dahl beached the boat and took some pictures of the craft, which took off in the direction of Canada.[i]
