Download or read book From Angels to Aliens written by Lynn Schofield Clark and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2005-10-27 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harry Potter, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and the Left Behind series are but the latest manifestations of American teenagers' longstanding fascination with the supernatural and the paranormal. In this groundbreaking book, Lynn Schofield Clark explores the implications of this fascination for contemporary religious and spiritual practices. Relying on stories gleaned from more than 250 in-depth interviews with teens and their families, Clark seeks to discover what today's teens really believe and why. She finds that as adherence to formal religious bodies declines, interest in alternative spiritualities as well as belief in "superstition" grow accordingly. Ironically, she argues, fundamentalist Christian alarmism about the forces of evil has also fed belief in a wider array of supernatural entities.Resisting the claim that the media "brainwash" teens, Clark argues that today's popular stories of demons, hell, and the afterlife actually have their roots in the U.S.'s religious heritage. She considers why some young people are nervous about supernatural stories in the media, while others comfortably and often unselfconsciously blur the boundaries between those stories of the realm beyond that belong to traditional religion and those offered by the entertainment media. At a time of increased religious pluralism and declining participation in formal religious institutions, Clark says, we must completely reexamine what young people mean--and what they may believe--when they identify themselves as "spiritual" or "religious."Offering provocative insights into how the entertainment media shape contemporary religious ideas and practices, From Angels to Aliens paints a surprising--and perhaps alarming--portrait of the spiritual state of America's youth.

Book excerpt: It was Carl Jung who first spoke of the UFO phenomenon as "a modern myth in the making," and Joseph Campbell who insisted that the first function of myths is "opening mind and heart to the utter wonder of all being."

In a brilliant stroke, Keith Thompson takes a subject usually confined to sensationalistic expose and reveals its surprising literary richness, intellectual energy, and symbolic depths. By offering a new, open-ended perspective which avoids the dogmatism of true believers and debunkers alike, Angels and Aliens invites readers to enter a fascinating world with profound implications for our understanding of the human spirit.

Download or read book Ancient Aliens in the Bible written by Xaviant Haze and published by Red Wheel/Weiser. This book was released on 2017-10-23 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Starting from the Old Testament these pages address the story of what is often not highlighted or, worse, deliberately forgotten or interpreted differently in order to conceal the potential disruptive effects.”—Mauro Biglino Did a distant race of ancient aliens once inhabit the lands of the Bible? Do the ancient writings of the Bible and other texts provide proof of their existence? Did the “prophets” have close encounters with ancient aliens? Were the “angels” physical beings sent to perform specific tasks by their alien masters? Ancient Aliens in the Bible answers these questions and more. Analyzing the historical and archaeological evidence, and using the work of former Vatican translator Mauro Biglino as his guide, Xaviant Haze provides ample proof that what our ancestors described in ancient biblical texts were real-life events and not visions. The UFO encounters in the Bible are described as concrete experiences by flesh-and-blood beings. The angels were assigned specific duties and struggled to carry them out; some even rebelled and took earthly wives, forbidden by their superiors. Ancient Aliens in the Bible reveals that: • Lamech’s wife gave birth to the son of an angel with glowing eyes. • Moses was led to the promised land by UFOs. • Noah’s great-grandfather, Enoch, got a heavenly tour of space. Your view of the Bible will never be the same.

Download or read book Aliens in Revelation written by Gm Matheny and published by . This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The premise of this book is that aliens are evil spirits, the fallen angels of the Devil. God created animals, man, and angels, but no little green men from Mars. But both the angels of God (elect angels) and the angels of the Devil (devils), with their superior abilities, if they had not been named angels and evil spirits in the Bible, would be thought of as "aliens." And there are reasons why people living in the future tribulation will believe angels are aliens, a deception that would work to the Devil's advantage. Ancient writers from different countries wrote about beings visiting them from the skies, who were superhuman. Some were called "gods," "watchers," or "angels." I do, however, believe that angels in the Bible are exactly what the Bible says they are-not that the word angel is a code word for alien or that the prophets of the Bible lacked the vocabulary to describe aliens. Again, I am saying that if God had not given us their name, angel, then people would naturally think they were "ancient aliens."This book is written with complete reliance on the Bible, and the outline for my story will come from the book of Revelation.

Download or read book Corrupting the Image written by Douglas Hamp and published by Defender Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Something ominous is coming upon the world: it is Satan 's final effort in the battle to destroy the image that man was created in, which has been raging since the beginning of time. If Satan can destroy the image, then he can avert his own destruction. The prophecy of Genesis 3:15 states the serpent will one day mix his seed with humanity as a counterfeit of the Messiah. Jesus told us that the last days will be like the days of Noah when fallen angels mixed their seed with humanity. In the Book of Daniel we read that "they " will again mingle with the seed of men. How so? Satan will use man 's desire to be his own god to deceive him into believing the ultimate lie - that his fallen messengers are both the creators and saviors of man. He will not do this openly but will deceive mankind through demons which are masquerading as "aliens " who are spreading the message that the inhabitants of the earth can evolve to be like them and obtain transcendent powers. Finally, the seed of the Serpent will come; he will be a man who will be greater than his fellows, who will understand sinister schemes and shall rise up and become the Antichrist. That day of fulfillment is nearly upon us!

Download or read book Covenants Book Four an End Times Guide to Ets Aliens Gods Angels Who s Who in the Cosmic Zoo written by Ella Lebain and published by Skypath Books. This book was released on 2018-03-30 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: COVENANTS - Book Four of the Who's Who in the Cosmic Zoo? series, A Guide to ETs, Aliens, gods and Angels, discusses the impact Disclosure of Alien and Extraterrestrial Life will have on Religion and the Church. It connects the dots to ancient history and End Times Prophesies, while exposing many heresies and cover-ups along the way. It discerns between actual historical facts from the lies that were spun to purport political agendas of mind control. The disclosure of the alien presence and extraterrestrial life here on earth need not shatter anyone's faith in the Creator God, on the contrary it should expand and strengthen it. This book is a guide towards transforming the old paradigm into preparation for the final chapter of End Times Prophesies, so earth humans can walk through it awakened and restored back into right relationship with the Creator God while being empowered with the knowledge to identify the cast of characters that have long been prophesied to play out the End Game of the end of this Age. This Earth is where Heaven and Hell meet, sandwiched between two kingdoms with clashing ideologies, the middle ground of an extraterrestrial and spiritual war. COVENANTS discerns and unpacks the spiritual legal ground established between the clash of these two kingdoms on earth. A covenant is an agreement, or contract, undertaken between two or more individuals, with each understanding the terms. We have forgotten some of the terms under which we covenant with our Creator while living on earth. We can see evidence of this clash of two kingdoms through human behavior, thoughts, and spirits. It is our destiny to exercise our free will as to which kingdom we belong: The Draconian Kingdom of Darkness and Enslavement, or the Kingdom of Heaven of Light, Love and Grace. COVENANTS lances the boils of racism and anti-Semitism on our planet, by addressing the root causes of our inability to live in peace and cooperation with each other. Book Four exposes the alien agenda for what it is, and how it all fits into the ancient End Times Prophecies written down over two to three thousand years ago. Many people suffer from depression, and hopelessness about the meaning of life. There are approximately 3 billion Christians in the world, and most of them have been put under a powerful spell through the Church of Rome's indoctrination, not to question anything. It's time to question everything and discern truth from lies within the Hebrew Scriptures. Too many people have suffered unnecessarily because of the cover ups of these truths. The truths the author discloses herein, takes you on a journey through history, ancient scriptures, exopolitics and whistleblowers, proving the roots of racism, prejudice, and social injustices began with the ancient aliens' battle of their genetic warfare over humankind. The author also points you towards the direction for the solution, a solution that is offered to all of humankind at this time, and is therefore, without prejudice, but is waiting for you to claim.
