Staring at the sky on a warm summer night reveals countless points of light. It is pure fantasy to assume someone is on one of those points looking back. Facts are the basis of civilization and scientific fact. Imagination is the basis for Hollywood stories.

It is also amazing how many fools are willing to admit to a belief in extraterrestrial life without any evidence at all, but who also deny the evidence of the Almighty God for which there is abundant evidence.

What a fool believes, no wise man can reason away.

Those ''points of light'' are stars, many of which are class G2V stars like our own sun. The majority of stars which have been observed have planets orbiting them. That life of some sort could have evolved on other planets with conditions suitable for the development of life is entirely possible. No 'fantasy' required.

I heard him refer to himself as a "recovering catholic". I think that's what the person was referring to. Just a Freudian slip is my guess.

The spirit of Ana, is a demon, plain and simple. The Nephalim are the fallen angels, and NOTHING they say can be trusted, the devils are liars. And they've got it backwards; they don't have access to those covered in the blood of the Lamb. I know, I met one. Blessings....

I thought might have been drones or something but they had moved too far, too fast, I concluded, to be drones. It was kind of trippy for sure.

And I'm being serious - it looked like something very strange.

Whatever the source, for sure their impossible speeds and instant turns, are really astounding, aren't they?

People who believe in demons are a danger to themselves and others, plain and simple.

Well since it is not illegal in the U.S. yet, you can only try to shame those posters into silence or ask that they take those types of discussions elsewhere.

I hope one day you find a semblance of a life beyond pointing fingers at everyone else.
