He sat down and opened his Bible. It looked like he was somewhere near the beginning. When I asked him about it, he said, "I'm not religious. I'm reading it for research." He proceeded to tell me about a show on the History Channel that seemed to connect the Bible, ancient civilizations, and aliens. He was adamant that ancient peoples did not have the technology to build things such as the pyramids and concluded that they must have had help from someone. Apparently it is also more believable that miraculous things in the Bible resulted from advanced technology brought by a race from another planet than that God did them. And this guy was sober. Part of the reason he was looking into the Bible was because he knew there were stories in there of people who led good lives. He seemed to be hoping that this would prepare him mentally to overcome his addictions. This guy could certainly use your prayers.
Maybe I should conclude this post by clarifying that I do believe in UFO's (Unidentified Flying Objects). However, I don't believe they come from other planets. Some of the things seen are probably natural phenomenon that we don't fully understand. As for alien abductions and such, the ones that aren't fake are probably demonic. Regardless, we who are believers have nothing to fear, because "He disarmed the rulers and authorities and put them to open shame, by triumphing over them in Him." (Col. 2:15)
