Resistance is Fertile
By Rosemary Ellen Guiley
FATE :: May 2005

Many ET experiencers find their spiritual faith severely put to the test. But the institution to which they might look for support and answers—their church—often comes up short, if not empty. For much of mainstream Christianity, the question of what to believe about ETs is a mighty uncomfortable one. There’s a growing concern that lack of information—or perhaps the wrong information—could leave Christian experiencers open to the “Big Lie.”

That’s why Guy Malone, a born-again Christian, is a man on a mission. An abductee and experiencer himself, Malone is passionately dedicated to educating the Christian community about ETs, and the UFO community about what the Bible says on this issue. FATE caught up with Malone at the Ancient of Days Conference, an annual event he organizes as part of the July 4 alien festival in Roswell, New Mexico. Malone also runs the Alien Resistance Headquarters in Roswell, a shop where he sells books and literature detailing Biblical perspectives on ufology.

“Call up any denomination and ask them about ETs, and they don’t have an answer,” Malone said. “They can tell you what they believe about the end times, alcohol, women in ministry, healing, talking in tongues. The Church doesn’t believe this UFO stuff is real. They’re stuck in that mindset that it’s just demons. No, it’s a little more complicated than that! I’ve dropped the ‘D’ word entirely. I think the demon explanation is completely over-simplified and not effective at all. You go anywhere outside your little home church and try to use the word ‘demon’ and you’re written off.”

Malone launched the Ancient of Days conference in 2003 as a forum for discussion on ETs, religion and politics, including non-Christian speakers as well as diverse and even opposing Christian viewpoints. As he jokingly promises in his opening remarks, everyone should go home offended at something they heard. Seriously, however, Malone understands that the only way to find the truth is to openly examine and discuss everything.

He has chosen a difficult road to walk, taking criticism from Christians for bringing ET discussions into religion, and from ufologists for bringing religion into ufology. Is it a case of “can’t win for losing”? Malone acknowledges the irony, but feels that neither side can afford to ignore the other. Both camps have relevant information needed to get closer to the truth, but because of the uneducated (although prevailing) demonic view, there’s an unnecessary animosity between Christians and others whenever the UFO/abduction topic arises. Christians fail to see what is real and valuable (i.e., not apparitions) about UFO research, while secular researchers seem to deny that the Bible may have relevant information.

“The best thing the Christian community can do is start going to conferences and getting educated,” Malone said. “Mix through the good and the bad. You have to discern what’s really a bunch of crap, same as when you’re watching ‘Christian’ television. The UFO community needs to bring in some of the more credible and less hysterical Christians to present their beliefs. The Church needs to bring in the more credible and less hysterical UFO researchers into their pulpits…. Call it ‘Disclosure,’ ‘Quickening,’ ‘Grand Delusion,’ ‘First Contact,’ or whatever, but something big seems to be on the horizon. The problem is, humanity as a whole has no coherent agreed-upon view of where they’re from or why they’re here, and very little to go on. But if whatever happens, happens, you’re just going to be at the mercy of whatever the ETs say—and I think all UFO research to date points to the idea that they’re liars.”

The “Big Lie” about ETs has been going on since the days of the Old Testament. According to Malone, the ETs are not who they say they are—beings from other planets—and they are not present among us for our benefit ...
