The Bible and Unidentified Flying Objects at Christmas

At Christmas time it would be interesting to review some of the teachings
of the Bible because I feel it is one of the most important books on Earth
that describe UFOs, their occupants and give us information on why they are
here. The bible states, "In the beginning god created the heaven and Earth
and made man in his image." According to the Bible you have a mortal body
and soul and spirit that is immortal. The term soul is used 754 times in
the Bible and we're told the soul is the invisible spiritual part of man, a
living organism. The Bible claims each person has a soul, a life force that
continues after death. At the time we take our last breath the soul or
spirit leaves the body, and some people who claim they have died, say they
hovered above their own body, only to return to live again. Many medical
personnel claim to have seen the spirit leave the body at the time the
physical body dies. My wife who was helping her brother walk at the time of
his death, felt his body become lighter as his spirit left, followed by his
full weight. This time of year we celebrate the birth of Christ who was
announced by angels, and his star was seen in the east.

One of the key parts of the Bible, explains the transfiguration of Jesus
that illustrates why we celebrate Christmas. "And after six days Jesus took
with him Peter and James and John his brother, and led them up a high
mountain. And Jesus was transfigured before them, and his face shone like
the sun, and his garments became white as light.  And behold, there
appeared to them Moses and Elijah. And Peter said to Jesus, "Lord it is
well that we are here; if you wish, I will make three booths here, one for
you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."   He was still speaking, when lo,
a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, "This is
my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased: listen to him."  When the
disciples heard this, they fell on their faces, and were filled with awe.
(Matthew 17). The scene represents that Jesus glory shone out through His
human form according to Unger's Bible Dictionary and represents one of the
most important events of His life on Earth.

To analyze the scripture from an Ufologist standpoint, we learn that Jesus
takes three witnesses up a mountain where they meet two of the patriarchs
of the Bible.  Moses and Elijah who had been dead for hundreds of years
meet with Jesus and are wearing clothes and are able to talk, but are seen
in a glorified state representative of those who have come into the kingdom
of God.  Their souls or spirits are able to return to Earth alive. Of
interest to us is that they are passengers aboard a bright cloud similar to
ones often reported in these files. The word cloud or clouds are used 156
times in the Bible and describe anything that flies in the sky except birds
or insects.  The unidentified flying bright cloud we are told also carries
God, who blesses Jesus, and gives his approval and blessing.  I suggest
that this story is true, that key figures in the Bible ride on a bright
cloud or UFO. Perhaps messengers from Heaven continue to ride in UFOs
looking for spirits or souls?  We also learn that God tells us to listen to
Jesus' message. Apparently millions have believed and each year we
celebrate the birth of Christ at Christmas that occurred some 2003 years
ago. If we believe His message we are promised ever-lasting life. Of
course, if the promise is untrue, we will all die. However, if it is true,
I'll meet you in Heaven!  Merry Christmas!

Modesto, California - R. David Anderson shot a video on October 19, 2003,
of a bright cloud like UFO near the tree in his yard. The UFO appears to
change it's shape frequently, perhaps depending on the viewing angle.

Vermont - Six Bright, White Lights In Formation With Military Aircraft In
Vicinity

WATERFORD - This event was witnessed by three people who agree on the
details of the event. They were walking up the hill to their house from our
barn at 7:10 PM, on December 10, 2003, when they noticed a flash of light
fill the sky behind them. One witness stated, "When I whirled around, I was
startled by the appearance of six bright, white lights in two apparently
separate triangular groups." Each triangular group of three lights appeared
to be the size of a folded postcard held at arms' length. He said, "The
lights were maybe 250 yards away moving toward me at high speed descending
from an initial altitude of a couple of hundred feet." There were only the
six bright lights, quite small in size, with no structure discernible
around them or between them. The lights were not flashing, and were a
constant white color although one witness felt they had some pink tinges.
The two triangular groups moved together for 10 to 15 seconds with no
change in the spacing between them other than an apparent increase in size
as the object(s) approached. There was no sound.  At the same moment, I
noticed two military aircraft flying one in front of the other well behind
the lights and at a higher altitude with navigation lights and strobes.

We border military area Y-2 in New Hampshire. The triangular lights were
near the ground and moving northeast in an entirely different direction
than the planes. After 10-15 seconds all six lights disappeared at exactly
the same moment. They simply vanished at once while in motion towards me,
as though someone turned off a light switch. The two chase aircraft made a
wide, sweeping turn around our property and in a minute another two
aircraft joined the "pattern" circling our property. The planes remained
circling overhead in a fairly tight turning pattern for one hour and twenty
minutes.

Massachusetts - Bright Rod shaped craft seen shortly after sunset

FITCHBURG - An experienced sky watcher was watching the sunset on December
13, 2003, at 4:25 PM, when a very bright line in the sky caught his eye. A
bright rod was about one fist's width above the horizon and a little left
of where the sun had set, and about the length of a thumbnail. He states,
"I used a pair of binoculars to get a better look and discovered that this
was not a contrail since the front and back where completely flat and the
length of the object was extremely straight." It was an absolutely perfect,
highly elongated rectangle with a length to width ratio of about ten to
one.  For the first minute or so I observed, it didn't move at all. Then,
over the next thirty seconds, it slowly moved about it's own length to the
right, and then stopped moving. I observed it for another 30 seconds, and
then it just suddenly vanished. The four corners of the elongated
rectangular shape were perfect 90-degree angles. The perception was that
this was something far way and very large. I categorize the shape as
cylinder, that flew away in the blink of an eye and was likely
self-illuminated?

New York - Light Source Behind the Clouds

PERU - Tina writes, "I have a sighting possibly and was wondering if there
are any other reports that have come in about this?"  This took place
Monday, December 15, 2003, as a light source behind the clouds.  Upon
initial sighting "it" was traveling NW then abruptly turned Westward and
then SW, before leaving it was heading due west.  Movement was erratic, but
swift.  Speed was faster than any small craft that I have seen on numerous
occasions being located between Burlington, VT. Lake Placid and Saranac, NY
airports, I have seen a few flying at night.  It flew slightly above the
cloud cover at first and then gained elevation as it finally headed to the
West and disappeared.  My husband was up on the roof digging out our
Satellite dish from a recent snowfall but he was busy and didn't see
anything and thought I was making it up.

Virginia - Three Green Fireballs

ALEXANDRIA - The witness was outside smoking a cigarette on December 13,
2003, at 2:20 PM, when he saw a green ball go across the sky very fast like
a meteor.  The witness states, "I thought it was a meteor when right behind
it there were two more green balls that zipped across the sky at an
enormous speed." I highly doubt there could be three meteors in a row like
that with seconds of each other.
Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter

Editor's Note: Meteors are not green, however many UFOs have been described
with various shades of blue or green.

Maryland - Vacillating Object Seen Through Kitchen Window

SALISBURY - Josh and the witness were talking on the phone on December 15,
2003, at 6:55 PM,  when the witness looked out the window and spotted a
star or a plane with another plane flying close to it and told her friend
Josh about what she saw.  She states, "The object started out white then
vacillated, blue, then red, then white again." It was spherical at first,
but as it moved in a small up and down motion the shape became unclear. It
moved up and down, then left and right but not far enough for the
maneuverability of a plane. It seemed to get a bit closer. I had been
talking with Josh and watching it at the same time for about five minutes
before I got a strong uneasy feeling. I looked around then back at the
object. After a few seconds the feeling subsided. About eight minutes later
the feeling came back but stronger. It was strong enough to make me gasp
out loud. I felt like it was watching me. It seemed to come a bit closer
before it flickered a few times then disappeared. The anxious feeling
subsided then. The object was about the size of a pinhead, but got to about
the size of a pea.

Georgia - Saucer Seen With Many Witnesses

WOODSTOCK - The witnesses seriously saw a UFO on December 18, 2003, at 7
PM, as cars  were pulling off to the side of the road to stop and look.
There was something sitting in the air not moving that had a green and red
light on each side and two huge spotlights in the middle. It didn't move it
just sat in one place and it wasn't really high up. It looked like a saucer
shape, but it was hard to make out. Ten minutes later, I saw two
helicopters headed back towards the object. The witness states, "I don't
know what it was but it wasn't a plane or helicopter."
Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter

Florida - Saw A Triangular Shaped Object That Sounded Like A Loud Whale

HALLANDALE - The witness reports seeing a triangular shaped object that was
smaller then a blimp on December 17, 2003, at 11:45 PM. It was a
silver/gray color but not very shiny hovering over them and it began to
move up and down without a sound. Then it started to move backwards and
forwards with ease. The triangle was larger than a jet, but smaller then a
blimp. Just before it's disappearance, it began making low bellowing noises
kind of like a whale. The witness states, "The noises became louder and
louder and we covered our ears until it disappeared after about seven
minutes."

Indiana - Slow Moving Silent Triangle Defined By Pale Yellow Chevron TERRE
HAUTE - The witness was driving west on Harlan Drive about four miles east
of US Highway 41 in Southern Vigo County on December 9, 2003, at 7:54 PM.
This is about ten miles south of Hulman Field where F-16 fighters are
based. (from the 181st Fighter Wing (ANG).  I stopped my car about 1/2 mile
south of Harlan Drive and got out to look at five pale yellow lights in a
symmetric chevron moving north. The apparent size of the object was about
the size of my thumb with my arm fully extended. There was a single white
light in the center of the apparent triangle formed by the vertices of the
pale yellow chevron and this light flashed on and off at a slow rate. The
white light seemed very big for an anti-collision strobe light on an
aircraft. The sky was partly cloudy and the moon was almost obscured by
clouds. I could not determine the actual size of the object, as I had no
references to determine its actual altitude. There were no red/green
navigation lights like normal aircraft. It was flying and strange enough to
be called unidentified. Therefore, in my book, it's a UFO.
Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter

Illinois - Triangle Object Hovering Above Field Next To Me

LOVES PARK - The experience occurred on December 12, 2003, at 5:35 PM, when
the observer noticed an object traveling south which had three lights in a
triangular shape. It was moving slowly across the sky and hovered above the
field. The witness says, "It was maybe 100-300 feet off of the ground and I
could see it clearly and dark in color." The lights were yellow and there
was no noise.  It looked to be about the size of a small airplane that was
moving south and then it turned northeast in a fast rate of speed. It then
turned back south then traveled really fast and disappeared. The lights
were in a triangular shape, one light on each corner of the object. "The
sighting lasted about twenty minutes, and I never encountered anything
weird and scary like this before," he said.

Missouri - Alien Or Monster

CHAFFEE - The eye witness was driving about 55 mph saw a dull aluminum bent
up clothes hanger like creature on December 9, 2003, at 12:50 and slowed to
40 mph.  He states, "The creature looked like a big aluminum, colored,
cockroach man with very long legs and he looked like he was running on his
knees. "It was seven feet tall, but we saw no face or eyes and it was
hunched over as it ran. At first, it looked like a deer, until it ran by
the truck so fast that you really couldn't see its legs moving...it was
more like scurrying.  It looked like it had some sort of arms, and I didn't
really see wings...but it was moving as if it had wings. It moved faster
and ran further than anything living that I have ever seen. It was similar
to a pumpkin head? or like an imp, but only taller?  I said to my friend
did you see that we almost hit a deer? He said, "Yes." Then something
zoomed ten feet by the passenger side door up to thirty feet in front of
the truck.  I sped up to about 65 mph and passed the creature, and looked
over my shoulder to the back of my truck. He stated, "It was behind us and
was running fast, then caught up and was running along side of us for a
good four seconds, then it zoomed past the truck again, to about 20 feet in
front of us and jumped straight into the air and disappeared."  We will
never know what it was...but I really don't see myself going back to this
spot at night.

Oklahoma - A Rectangle Of Lights That Floated Across The Sky

JONESTOWN -The witness went outside to say good-bye to his daughter-in-law
on December 17, 2003, at 7:35 PM, and saw an unusual looking structure with
two or three lights off to the right of the object.  They looked as if they
were part of the thing.  The largest part of the object was shaped like a
rectangle and was covered with white lights in four rows of five lights.
This thing seemed to float rather than fly as it slowly crossed the sky.
The witness says, "I guess we see to the best of our ability."

Texas - Triangle Craft Observed by TUX Nuclear Power Plant

GLEN ROSE -- On December 17, 2003, at 11:50 PM, the observer was going to
work on the night shift and off in the distance was a very low flying plane
near the TXU Nuclear Power Plant about five miles away. We don't often see
low flying craft because of it. The observer noticed three dim lights, with
a green light on the left and a red light on the right. In the middle,
slightly higher was another red light that was noticeably smaller than the
two on either side of it. These lights were not blinking like aircraft
lights. It was flying very low and there was no sound. When the object
passed overhead it was a perfect triangle and looked mostly black or a dark
gray. I jumped in my truck and tried to follow the flying triangle but lost
sight of it behind nearby houses and trees. I estimate the size to be about
that of a private jet moving at about 50 mph and only 125 feet altitude.

North Texas - Two Very Shiny, Oblong Objects

Two very shiny, oblong objects were seen by Jason Greywolf Leigh from his
yard  and videotaped by the local NBC affiliate, Channel 5, KXAS rooftop
live camera on December 18, 2,003, at 11:42 PM. The weatherman was doing
the weather and ordered David Finfrock to switch to the rooftop camera live
to show the delightful sunset. The camera showed two objects shooting due
south in perfect formation, at incredible speeds. They spanned the horizon
from north to the south in less than four seconds on a horizontal plane, 12
to 15 degrees above the horizon.  These objects 'glowed' a silvery, bright
white, followed by an instantly disappearing vapor trail They were in a
'perfect' straight-line formation, about two widths of the sun apart.  The
weatherman did a double take as these objects zipped by his pointing finger
without comment. The same shot was repeated on the 10 PM news segment that
I watched.

Colorado - Large, Low Flying Cigar With Two Lights Flying East

HESPERUS -- At about 9:30 PM, on December 18, 2003, a couple heard a loud
noise, which caused them to run outside and observe a cigar shaped object
200 feet above their house.  There were two lights, one above the other
slightly tilted with the upper light being forward. It turned very slowly
so that the lights were eventually horizontal to one another. It was much
too large to be a helicopter and its size was about that of a large
passenger plane. However, it did not sound like a passenger plane nor could
one fly this slowly. The eyewitness ran into the house and got the
binoculars, and watched for another ten minutes. It hovered over the
mountain for five minutes. There was another small white light near it
while it was hovering, and I thought it to be a small airplane. My husband
is a mechanical engineer and has studied and understands aircraft, he had
no idea what this was.

Arizona - Cigar Shaped Black Object Spotted

SANDERS - The witness was driving to work in the early morning just before
dawn on December 10, 2003, at 9:15 PM when he saw a light that was as
bright as Venus. It got bright and then dimmed altogether. What was left
hanging unmoving in the sky was a black/black cigar shaped vehicle with a
bump on the top. I pulled into the parking lot and watched it just hover
and never move. It was very black and did not reflect light off it and made
no noise whatsoever.

Canada - Huge Bright Yellow Light Appeared Then Landed On A Mountain Top

KELOWNA, BC -- A large saucer shaped object bolted across the sky on
December 18, 2003, at 5:30 PM, and then hovered before it dived down to the
earth's surface. It either hovered or landed on the mountain.  After
sitting or hovering on the mountaintop for about 2.5 seconds the flying
saucer disappeared, except for an eerie red glow that remained in the same
place that the UFO had disappeared.  Five seconds later the glow also
disappeared.
Thanks to Peter Davenport UFOcenter

MILTON, ONTARIO - The witness was driving to work in the early hours on
December 9, 2003, at 6:40 AM, when he saw a strange object with no blinking
colored lights. It looked somewhat like a fat plane flying sideways, but
much bigger, with three bright lights. He was staring and it was slow and
just hovering going up and then down. There were also other planes in the
morning sky. The UFO, quickly disappeared leaving two jets just to cross
each other. This craft was way too huge, too high, and too low in the sky
and far to quick to be a normal aircraft.
Thanks to Peter Davenport

HOUSTON -- He had just transported his wife from a friend's house when they
arrived back home shortly after at  8:45 PM, on December 8, 2003. They
pulled into their long driveway only to see the two kids standing outside
yelling and pointed towards the mountain behind their home. The husband
stopped the car quickly and both parents jumped out in fear, as they had no
idea what was wrong, thinking the worst. They noticed a white oval shaped
object sitting stationary over their property with a solid ring of blue
lights moving around the white colored object. A slight and annoying hum
could be heard. The Mother went over and grabbed the two children and went
into the house. The father followed but they watched from inside. The
object lit up the trees in a white light for a good distance and after four
minutes, it slowly started to move dropping white sparks off the bottom. It
rose up rather slowly and as it reached the top of the mountain they lost
sight of it.

Northern Ireland - Triangular UFO Sighted

CLOGHER, COUNTY TYRONE -- On Thursday, December 11, 2003, Milton Clarke was
outdoors in his hometown when a UFO approached from the north. "It seemed
like a glowing triangle, a really bright glow," Milton reported, "I
couldn't see any markings.  It was very close to the ground at one point
only 20 meters (66 feet) off the ground.  It came in very fast, slowed down
to a stop, then flew away very fast towards the west."  "I took some
pictures, but it's hard to know if it will come out.  It was very dark, and
I didn't have the right type of film for this kind of thing."

Erie (Ireland) - Rectangle Of Bright Light And Delta Shaped Craft Noticed Too

DUBLIN - The witness was on his way to college in a bus at 7:45 AM, on
December 15, 2003, and looked out the window and saw a bright blue
rectangle light high up in the sky.  It was not a star nor a conventional
aircraft.  The light faded and this delta shaped object started flying from
where the light had been and flew quite fast to 20 degrees east.  The
observer states, "I was in disbelief and lost sight of it as the bus moved.
The UFO was dark and delta shaped, and had a light on three corners and one
was blinking.  Ten minutes later a rectangle of light was seen  where I had
seen it the first time.  I noticed it was moving, but as I drove we were
not gaining any ground on it, when the light faded in a flash. This was
undeniably not a plane since it was flying at about 2000 feet, way to low
for a commercial aircraft in an urban area.

England - Two Curved Arrow Head Objects Performing "DNA" Spiral Maneuvers.

BURNHAM-ON-CROUCH - On December 13, 2003, at 8:30 PM, the witness was in
his garden when he looked up to see two objects heading north, shaped like
curved edge arrowheads, flying straight.  They were performing maneuvers,
crossing each other's path in an almost DNA like spiral. They were
illuminated by a dull light underneath, with a soft-fuzzy and pale yellow
light and were about the size of planes, but I'm convinced they were not
planes. There was no noise from them, and they were flying low at about 250
feet. I watched them until they flew out of sight over my house.

Norway - Triangle of lights spotted over hill, and then disappeared

OSLO - On December 15, 2003, at 7:45 PM, the observer was looking out of
his window when he saw three white lights which formed a triangular shape
hovering just over a hill about one mile away. "It" stood still for about
15 seconds, then "ducked" behind the hill without sound.

Netherlands - Neon Pink Delta Shaped UFO

HOOFDDORP - The eyewitness was walking his dog on December 8, 2003, at 9:15
PM, when he looked up and saw a big neon pink delta shape object. It had a
light tail and it moved very fast and was silent, with a constant speed and
it lasted for  five seconds and suddenly disappeared.

Malaysia - Newspaper Reports UFO

BALING - The object was flying over the coconut trees on December 15, 2003,
at 6 PM for about four minutes and then disappeared. A Malaysian newspaper,
The New Straitstimes, wrote that a kid saw the UFO flying over the coconut
trees in north Malaysia near the Thailand border. There was a blue light
coming out of the car sized-flying object. See the Indonesian GATRA
magazine of the December 16 (www.gatra.com)

Tasmania - Cigar-Shaped UFO Seen

LAUNCESTON -- On Saturday, December 13, 2003, at 10:05 PM, the eyewitness
A.B. reported, "George and I were at my country property just north of
Launceston in Australia's island state of Tasmania, sitting outside, having
a smoke. George noticed a long, cigar-shaped glowing object approaching
from the northeast, high in the sky.  As it approached the property, it
slid lower into the sky and appeared as if it would land.  Moreover, as
fast as it appeared, it flew away with only a slight tingling in the air to
confirm it had ever been there at all.  It was about 80 meters (264 feet)
above ground, lowering to about 20 meters (66 feet).  At its minimum speed,
I would say it approached 200 kilometers per hour (120 miles per hour)."
Launceston is in northern Tasmania, about 250  kilometers (150 miles) north
of Hobart, the state capital.

Australia - Cattle Killer Strikes

Hayley Seeney from the North Queensland Newspaper Company reports, "Police
are searching for a thrill killer who inflicted a slow death by mutilation
on two more cattle on a Brandon property this week." The slaughter of the
in-calf Droughtmaster cow and a weaner has brought the number of such
killings on the property to 20 since July. The two December killings were
the first in two months. Property owner Andrew MacNicol is offering a $2000
reward for information that leads to the conviction of the cattle killer.
Senior teaching fellow at Bond University's Criminology Department, Wayne
Petherick, said yesterday that despite what people might think, the
perpetrator was probably not mentally ill. Mr. Petherick said, "a young man
who was not entirely socially accepted might be killing to affirm his
manliness.

Mr. MacNicol said the cow was one of 12 Droughtmasters he was holding on
his Becker Rd. property for friends. Both animals this week were killed in
the same fashion as the previous 18 -- bellies slit, an ear cut off, and
face and tongue mauled, most  likely by dogs. "It's not only the financial
loss," Mr. MacNicol said, "it's a painful death those poor bastards must go
through. I can't see what this sicko is getting out of it." He said the
killings had made him even more determined that the cattle killer be
caught. By offering the $2000 reward he hoped to flush out information. But
previous appeals for public help had been met with silence. Ayr police
officer-in-charge Senior-Sergeant Mick Isles said it was a  bizarre case.
In his 29 years in the police service he had not seen or heard about
another case so strange.  We welcome your comments on our stories and our
site. If this issue arouses interest, we will publish our readers' views.
Tell us what you think? -- The North Queensland Newspaper Company Limited
11Dec03.

Editor's Note: We covered this case because it is similar to cattle
mutilation cases in other parts of the world often blamed on UFOs. With the
outbreak of Mad Cow Disease in Washington State frequent UFO sightings in
the area should be investigated to see if there is any connection.

New Zealand - Eight Rectangle Craft Moving At Top Speed

NAPIER  -- On December 18, 2003, at 10 PM, eight or nine rectangular
objects were spotted moving until most suddenly they stopped, then two shot
away exceptionally fast. The observer took a photo of a stationary one that
was bright with red, and blue flashing lights.  He states, "We reported it
to the Wellington Airbase and they said, `they had seen it and a carrier jet
pilot was up there at that moment that would explain the white object
flying towards the object at slow speed.'"
