"Passport to Magonia: From Folklore to Flying Saucers," by computer scientist and astronomer Jacques Vallée, who was a contributor to Project Blue Book, draws similar conclusions as Father Rose concerning mythological themes that exist from man's beginnings. To conclude that myth derives from reality is not a logical leap. Furthermore, extra-dimensional evidence is found in the Bible - angels appearing and disappearing, Jesus ascending bodily into heaven, Eden, Hades/hell/Sheol/Tartarus, the bosom of Abraham, the third heaven. Just as in the prophets' visions and John's descriptions in Revelation - our senses that operate in this dimension are limited by inadequate capacity and vocabulary to communicate what they are allowed by God to observe from other dimensions. 1 Corinthians 2:9
A Christian Apologist interviewed by Eric Mataxas on Socrates in the City made an interesting observation: the increase in UAP sightings parallels precisely the increased involvement with Paranormal Activity. UAP sightings in Russia was at a great height at same time that the Russians were deeply involved with psychic and para normal research.
Postscript: Also it has been noted that the recorded messages from “Departed Spirits” received in seances are very very similar to messages given to earthlings in close encounters.
As Alan Jacobs has argued for years, we desperately need a better demonology. For more recent culture dealing with aliens, I recommend Francis Spufford's *Nonesuch*. Wonderful novel.

We all know there aren't any Unidentified Objects; and there aren't any Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena; after all, they are not unidentified by God.
