I’ve been reading a lot of scholarly debates that focus on other life in the universe affecting the Christian religion. Many people, including some on this site have said that if other life appears to us, it would make many people lose confidence in God because He never mentioned them in the Bible.
This entire debate hinges on the ‘fact’ that other life even exists. Arguments in favor of this usually involve probabilities and the universe’s size. For instance, it’s frequently said that the universe is too big to be only for humanity. I say, look at the Bible again. The Bible says we were made in the “image of God” and created to be stewards of His creations, mainly the Earth.
God created this world for people to live on and glorify Him with their existence. The love that many of us have for Him is returned a hundredfold. Now, do I still think a God who loves me THAT much is willing to create an entire universe of stars and other celestial wonders, just so we as humans can have extra light at night? I think that I have have no idea what God thinks, but I do believe He loves his creation, humanity, enough to make the entire universe just for us. He did send His Son to die for us, after all…
I doubt there’s anything He wouldn’t do for us. Therefore, I think that extraterrestrial life is not a given just because we cannot believe in a loving God who created everything for us.
Thank you for reading.
UFOs are simply unidentified flying objects, and so any object in the sky that we cannot identify is by definition, a UFO. They are sometimes called UAPs (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena), since the term UFO is sometimes seen by scientists as discredited. For scientists UFOs are not articles of belief or unbelief. Like all other phenomena it is a question of examining the evidence, putting forward hypotheses, and testing the facts against those hypotheses.
Typically, unidentified objects are seen as lights or objects that seem not to be planes, helicopters, balloons or any other known man-made flying object, or objects that appear to by flying in ways that are not possible according to the known laws of science.
Most UFOs are eventually identified (becoming IFOs, one assumes). They often turn out to be weather balloons catching the light in unexpected ways, planets, which appear as extremely bright lights in the sky under some climatic conditions, comets, space junk, aircraft contrails, or meteorites. Some photographs of UFOs are later proved to have been hoaxes (and faking of photographs is becoming much easier with programs such as Photoshop, which almost everyone has access to these days).
Most UFOs are eventually identified, but not all of them, and some remain unexplained even after many years of investigation. (The websites suggested below for further reading describe many of these unexplained phenomena, which remain Unidentified Flying Objects.)
There are a number of theories about what these objects might be, but most theories suggest that UFOs are intelligently controlled craft not of Earthly origin. The most common theory is that they originate from civilisations elsewhere in the galaxy. Other theories suggest UFOs are vehicles flown by beings living inside the Earth, or by beings in a parallel Universe.
The theories are difficult to test, but it must also be said that while UFOlogists accept any report without question, many scientists dismiss them without scientific investigation, and scientists who do take the phenomenon seriously risk being ridiculed. Since most UFO sightings are fleeting and often leave no physical evidence other than photographic or video evidence, this can also make investigation difficult.
Nevertheless, there have been scientific investigations, by organisations such as the CIA and bu US, UK and French air forces. One of the first serious studies was that done in the UK by the ‘Flying Saucer Working Party’
As a government organization, NASA has been the target of many UFO cover up conspiracies. Since NASA is funded by the government, they are ultimately the government’s employees. However, budget cuts and lack of confidence from their employers make it clear that their bosses are not too happy with them. NASA would love to find definitive proof about extra terrestrial life and UFOs in order to get more public support and more funding.
UFOs have been seen by NASA test pilots and astronauts almost from the start of NASA’s existence. The infamous 1969Apollo 11 moon landing also had UFO sightings. Some of this information has been reportedly lost, which certainly seems suspicious but was most likely due to basic bungling on the part of overworked and underpaid employees.
Buzz Aldrin, one of the Apollo moon astronauts, claims to have seen UFOs during the mission. There certainly were indications of lights that seem to have lit up without any apparent reason. Aldrin only publicly admitted in 2006 that he saw UFOs during that mission, although there had been talk since 1970 that he had seen something (it even made Ripley’s Believe It Or Not! book on UFOs, so at the time it was already considered nearly common uncommon knowledge)
NASA and astronauts have an agreement not to try and mention any UFO sightings if they know that they are on public feeds. This was especially true of the first moon landing, when seemingly the whole human population was holding their breath in front of a TV or radio. This was because NASA did not want to start any panic (should a UFO sighting turn out to be true or false). Also, they wanted the focus of the mission to just be getting to the moon and back, which was enough of a problem in and of itself without having to try to prove the existence of UFOs on top of it.
Amateur ham radio operators are credited with the earliest knowledge that astronauts saw UFOs or something they definitely couldn’t figure out. And astronauts are not usually known to give into panic or to be unfit for the rigors of space travel. Former NASA employees have corroborated these stories, saying that astronauts definitely saw ships as well as strange lights.
Apparently, sightings of UFOs became so common in NASA missions that they were given their own code name: Santa Claus. That code word was thought to be first used during Mercury missions of the early 1960′s.
NASA, to its credit, has been good about letting a lot of its pictures and films go public. Many of these images are blurry and inconclusive. They usually have a certain elegance and charm, though. One of the most interesting is of a huge metal sphere hovering just over the Earth’s atmosphere taken from the shuttle Atlantis.
Whether it’s the result of a cover-up or an honest opinion based on years of research, evidence, and scrutiny, the official stance of the government of the United States is that UFOs, or Unidentified Flying Objects, do not exist.
Government reports and public announcements by government agencies have continually pointed to the UFO phenomenon as easily explainable naturally occurring events such as swamp gas or ball lightning, or confusion with familiar objects such as private or military aircraft, lighthouses, and weather balloons. The national press, perhaps in an effort to boost ratings or sell more advertisements more than an actual interest in the topic, has chosen to keep a more open mind on the subject, and continually scrutinizes the government’s response to UFO sightings.
There was a time when the U.S. government was less convinced that UFOs were explainable. A U.S. Air Force commission called “Project Blue Book”, which was set up by the U.S. Senate in 1952, stated for years that it collected data which shows UFOs to exist. Despite these findings, however, the project was mothballed in December of 1969, and as far as the public knows, its operations ended entirely in January of 1970.
Project Blue Book was created to determine if UFOs were a threat to national security and to scientifically analyze UFO-related data. During the years the project was active, thousands of UFO reports were collected, analyzed and filed. The result of these findings made up the Condon Report, which concluded that UFOs did not exist.
Blue Book rationalized in the report that the 12,618 UFO reports it had collected were explainable as natural phenomena, conventional aircraft, or hoaxes perpetrated by the general public. However, many see the most interesting finding of the project was that 701 of the reports were classified as “unknowns.” Despite the fact that Project Blue Book investigators could not reasonably explain away six percent of the reports that they studied with scientific methods, they still chose to conclude that UFOs were a figment of the American imagination.
Because of this contradiction between the government’s official stance and the actual findings of the report, many skeptics have theorized that Project Blue Book was actually created as a government cover-up of UFOs. There is also a popular belief that some bona fide UFO reports were purposely not included in the study by the government.
Since Blue Book’s demise, there doesn’t appear to be an official government agency in the United States which is tasked with studying UFO phenomenon. However, files from the last three decades since the project ended are available through the freedom of information act (FIA) from several government bureaus regarding UFO related sightings. These include the Central Intelligence Agency, Defense Intelligence Agency, Federal Bureau of Investigation, and National Security Agency.
Even though the government officially denies the existence of unidentified flying objects, apparently they still have an interest in maintaining, cataloguing, and collecting reports which relate to UFOs. Believers in the existence of the phenomenon say that this is proof enough that the government’s official stance contradicts their actual beliefs and practices.
