FLYING SAUCERS: THE BIBLE CONNECTION

Bible scholar, Barry Downing, firmly believes that biblical
teachings were inspired by extraterrestial beings who came to
earth in flying sausers. Downing was so convinced, he wrote a book
about his theory called THE BIBLE AND FLYING SAUCERS (Lippincott,
New York, 1968).

In the book, Downing says the bible clearly points out how UFOs
played a strong role in the evolution of the Hebrew-Christian
faith. For example, Downing believes the Scriptures suggest that
Jesus' resurrection occured when he was beamed up from Earth by a
flying saucer.

Downing also believes that the bright cloud that led the people
of Israel through the Red Sea, parting the waters and then
engulfing the Egyptions, was a UFO.

The Author even claims it was space beings who spoke to Moses
from the middle of a glowing thicket, and later spoke to Elijah
outside the cave, forcing the prophet to sheild his eyes because
of the brightness. A UFO took Jesus away at the Ascension, and
hovered over Paul and his followers on the Damascus Road, Downing
contends.

Further, the author claims the three wise men probably followed
a UFO to Bethlehem, since stars do not move or abruptly stop in
the manner the bible describes.

Downing claims that evidence proving UFOs could be hazardous to
human health can also be found in the Bible. He points to
references to the Egyptians drowning in the Red Sea, warning Moses
not to approach too near the burning bush, and warnings given his
followers not to approach Mount Sinai, as proof. The author
points out other mystifying events in the Bible that he believes
can only be interpreted to mean the participants had contact with
UFOs.

For example, he points out that when Moses decended from Mount
Sinai with two tablets in his hands, Exodus records that the skin
of his face shone from talking with God. And he says the NEW
TESTAMENT describes how Jesus began to glow when in contact with a
bright object on a mountain.

When the Tabernacle was built, Downing cotends the priests
serving it were told by ETs what clothing to wear to protect
themselves against radiation, because the UFO hovered like a cloud
over the tent enclosing the Tabernacle. Downing believes this
precaution could have brought about the Jewish custom of wearing
skullcaps into houses of worship. The author even suggests
mutations in the growth of biological life caused by radiation
could have resulted in the plagues described in Exodus.

Downing further theorizes that Einstein's curvature of space
theory provides aclue to the place where heaven is located. The
author contends Jesus may have meant that the kingdom of heaven
quite literally rests in the midst of us, meaning that heaven is
on an entirely different plane or wave length, invisible to us,
but existing parallel to our own and connected by bends or warps
in the space-time continuum.

Vangard Notes...

The burning bush is distinctly reminescent of an effect which
can be induced by a high frequency/high voltage Tesla coil.
Any mass can be made to emit visible light at high voltages.
Another possibility is a plasma excited from behind or within
the bush.

We refer you to the file on KeelyNet entitled MARS1.ZIP or
.ASC (for non-IBM). It refers to a communication system
using a modulated plasma. Other files are ARKCOV1.ZIP and
NOAHARK1.ZIP.

We concur with Dr. Downings thoughts regarding Biblical
miracles as being produced by the high technology from a
source or sources more evolved than man at that time. They
could be other worldly, other dimensional or inner Earth. No
one can say at this time and prove their contentions.
