NORTH MANCHESTER - What if UFOs were really angels and demons?

That’s the principal behind the movie “The RUFO Hypothesis,” which was shown Thursday at the North Manchester Public Library by members of TruthSeekers.

TruthSeekers is an information disseminating group interested in exploring current events through a Biblical world view, according to Tim Morbitzer, one of the group’s organizers.

The movie is a companion to “Lights in the Sky & Little Green Men” by astronomer Hugh Ross, philosopher/theologian Kenneth Samples and national security expert Mark Clark.

The film starts with events from July 1947, when an alien spacecraft supposedly crashed near Roswell, N.M. In the movie, host Greg Koukl talks with the authors of “Lights in the Sky” about this event, future UFO sightings and abductions in an almost news/talk show format.

According to Clark and Samples, approximately 95 percent UFO sightings can be explained as experimental aircraft, weather balloons or other circumstances. Clark said U.S. government officials are keeping silent on UFO sightings to protect research and development and defend U.S. interests and security.

For example, people saw the triangular-shaped stealth and F-117 aircraft in the sky when they were being developed. Many people called these sightings UFOs because their capabilities were not widely known.

Another example is the U2. Fifty percent of UFO sightings in the 1950s were known U2 flights. The U2 is a silver, surveillance aircraft capable of flying at 50,000 to 60,000 feet and can be seen at sunset.

The book authors contend that the news of aliens who might have crashed or dead alien bodies also are speculative. Ross points to the missing Richard Nixon tape, the Nazi-Soviet pact and Lenon’s attempt to take over Russia. None were secret for long because they were uncovered by the media.

But between one and five percent of UFO sightings or abductions cannot be explained as above. These the authors called residual UFOs. Ross said abductions are suspect because the experiments done on people are not based on good science and it does not appear the aliens are that much more technologically advanced, as they should be.

For example, in the 1950s people said they were visited by beings from the moon, Ross said. Later when more was learned about the moon the aliens were from Venus, then Mars and later Jupiter and Saturn.

“The intent was on deceiving us and the science knowledge was inaccurate,” Ross said.

Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity is one of the most tested and accepted theories of movement, and yet these UFOs seem to defy these rules, Ross said. Therefore, he theorizes that the beings are beyond physical reality and nature and are not confined by space or time dimensions.

People can trust the Bible, which states malevolent or fallen angels and demons are not as powerful as God but are more powerful than people. Ross and the other authors believe they are capable of this unusual movement and defying the laws of physics.

Samples believes alien abductions and UFO sightings have occult origins and only people who have participated in occult activity have these UFO experiences. Examples of occult activity can include involvement in astrology, using tarot cards or a Ouija board, being a medium between the living and the dead, divination or predicting the future.

“Some say there is a distinct parallel between UFOs and demonology,” Samples said.

After the movie, North Manchester resident Karla Akins said the film confirmed what she believed for a long time that 95 to 98 percent of UFOs can be explained.

Her son, 14-year-old Noah Akins, said the film reconfirmed his beliefs as well.
