This concept of "God" as an ancient alien or astronaut may not be classic, but as more and more evidence is coming forward, and people are turning to science and out of superstitions and ignorance, they have three choices (maybe more)of how to live, think, and read the Bible:
1. Stay blissfully ignorant about science and stay believing in the "magic" of classically (or actually relatively recently) understood Christianity, and find yourself in a very intolerant, dogmatic and ignorant conservative, right wing and fundamental crowd. You will likely be embarrassed of most of them though, (like Westboro Baptist church, Chic-fil-A or the family of Duck Dynasty, etc.) to the point of denying identity with "those kind of Christians", saying that they are not "true Christians".
2. They could also believe that the "ignorant bronze age nomads" wrote pretend stories/myths in the Bible, just for fun. Would it then be a coincidence when the stories overlap with other cultures of the world or did they have contact with each other for thousands of years? Also, when evidence comes up that the biblical "myths" actually happened, some just ignore or excuse away these things that might give credit to parts of the Bible, and call themself an Atheist.
3. Get a broad (historically, scientifically, genetically based) understanding of all the myths of the world's gods. This could lead to a understanding that the world's religious texts having their origins with the "gods" of the first civilization, the Sumerians. The word god was first translated as "ilu" which means "tall men". The word was first used in the Sumerian text and spoke of only a specific group called the "Annunaki," an advanced alien race that came from the "Heavens" or sky.
So, if you translate the Bible's "God" as "alien" or "Astronaut" basically, "Heaven" as "sky", "cloud" as "space ship", "God's children" as the Annunaki's genetically manipulated children made in their image known to us as "Neanderthals" (which BTW were most likely red-headed and light-skinned).

The next option of Atheism is getting to be popular; it's growing by leaps and bounds. The fastest growing "religion" in the world is in fact "none." Most of those leaving are the generation of the internet and the ones getting an education. No doubt this trend will continue in first world countries and among the literate and well off. . .but, in throwing out the immorality, prejudice and anciently held beliefs of religion, could they have thrown out the baby with the bathwater?
In a similar way as the conservative Christians are unteachable and bigoted, not to mention judgmental with their quoting of the Bible to say that the Atheists are "fools", sadly, in defense of themselves Atheists (even like me) often find themselves quoting the (very legitimate) stats of how smart and educated with Bible knowledge Atheists are as a rule, compared to Christians. In essence, though Atheists have the evidence to back them, they often rub that in the faces of the Christians as to say, "Christianity and the Bible is all wrong, and you are a fool for believing what you do." That is slightly presumptuous about a lot of things and also bigoted and judgmental. . .even if justifiably so.
So, what if we chose the last as both a compromise and the morally best choice? What if instead of judging and presuming people are fools, we tried to understand one another, and the part of the puzzle they see. We could take the Bible as a slightly messed up history book, as it's always been taken by past generations and not that the people writing it were idiots, or evil, but sometimes just using the knowledge and culture of the time as is typical with every ancient history book. . .could the ancient alien theory be the perfect way to bring two violently opposing views to a more holistic and accurate compromise? I'm excited to think that acceptance of this theory may be close to accepted in the mainstream mind now:
- The Catholic church, 50% of Christians in the world by the latest count, have stated that "There could be alien life forms and believing they exist isn't contradictory to having faith in God," and that an alien would be our "extraterrestrial brother".
- Fox news, the brain child of the Christian right wing, has covered a recent UFO sighting over the dome of the rock. As flying over the Dome of the Rock landmark -- an ancient Islamic shrine -- is forbidden, and it was filmed by 4 different cameras from different locations, this is very hard to prove as a hoax. Former Ministry of Defense UFO investigator Nick Pope said: "If these are real, they are some of the most incredible videos ever shot. If they are not, then this is a very well-planned and coordinated hoax designed to eliminate elements of doubt." Also stating, " . . .it is one of the most advanced pieces of technology created by man." As cool as that, and the other recent world media coverage of the increased UFO action in the last few years, as well as the disclosure of numerous of the world's governments on OFO's, like:
1. Argentina
2. Australia
3. Brazil
4. Canada
5. Chile
6. China
7. Denmark
8. Finland
9. France
10. Germany
11. India
12. Ireland
13. Japan
14. Mexico
15. New Zealand (Additional Report)
16. Peru
17. Russia
18. Spain
19. Sweden
20. Ukraine (not in English)
21. United Nations
22. United Kingdom
23. Uruguay
24. Vatican City
25. including Former officials of ours It's just a matter of time and our full government will have to admit to and hand over what they know about the aliens and UFO's. (A lot!)
The most amazing thing to me is not that we are starting to admit seeing UFO's and aliens, but that many are saying that they may be the Hebrew God Elohim, or Jesus coming back! (Or maybe they were always near by. . .) Fox news's statement after seeing the UFO over the Dome of the Rock was, "Is he back?" Source
Hey, this is what I've been saying now for months! Check out my series here. (Maybe my Fox news watching extended family will listen to me now.) I am just waiting for an Alien lovers translation of the Bible to come out, using the Sumerian text to help decipher the true meaning of the Old Testament from the earlier and original stories. . .which would consequently throw out much of the New testament, which was based in presumptions, misquoting the Old testament and oral traditions over hundreds of years, (all founded in misunderstandings and exaggerations about the ancient aliens. . . ) but that's ok with me. Bring it on!
