I was as disgusted as anyone else when Fox issued Tucker his walking papers, because it amounted to a purge of the last  Paleo/Populist sentiments from what is otherwise a total Commie wasteland of mainstream media. But his Twitter debut leaves me suspicious that his termination might not be what it seems. Because he used his widely viewed Twitter comeback to push the existence of little green men, one wonders if he was released from Fox for that very purpose – to create the appearance of a Truthteller unleashed. And thereby shift the opinion of his audience, who are otherwise the least inclined to belief in ETs, into the cosmology of the Left and their pointless fantasies.

And that, on the say-so of “whistleblowers” out of NASA and US Intelligence. As if they had any credibility. Deference to such compromised witnesses actually damages Tucker’s credibility. And critically.

I mean, c’mon. On this point, Tucker leaving governmedia is merely a cover for his admonishing his audience to join the Left  on this subject – a subject which big media has been pushing all my life. CIA-run Hollywood and publishing houses, and the virtual whole of the Left, have been pounding aliens into the American subconscious since the mid-20th century. Heck, the so-called “History Channel” has, for the last decade, been more or less dedicated to three subjects – ETs, Nazis, and Nazi ETs.

Of course, they tried to get the Right onboard for years by way of Hollywood’s constant resort to Alien invasion in Cold War propaganda. But for all the Martian invasion movies, shows, pulps, and comics, it did little to persuade Right-wingers of the existence of Martians. No doubt to the great frustration of the propaganda wizards, rather than validating extraterrestrials, the association of aliens with Communism only reinforced our nativist inclinations in terms of terrestrial aliens, who, whether Oriental, African, Latin American, Jewish, or what have you, predominantly stood for Communism in the real world.

And be it not forgotten that Ronald Reagan, Judas Goat that he was, let slip the plan. When speaking before the UN, he claimed that ETs were a needed concept toward a unified global government: “Perhaps we need some outside, universal threat, to make us recognize this common bound [sic]. I occasionally think how quickly our differences worldwide would vanish if we were facing an alien threat from outside this world.”

Anyone doubting that the government would go to such elaborate lengths just to delude the public on the subject of ETs should acquaint himself with the Paul Bennewitz story. Yes, the US Air Force really dedicated millions of dollars, countless man hours, staged mock alien transmissions, and even mock battles with UFOs, and hoaxed crash sites, just to drive one man to the nut house.

And that was in the 70s, when it was still technically illegal for the Feds to propagandize Americans.

But after the Smith-Mundt (2012) and National Defense Authorization (2013) Acts legalized the propagandization of American citizens? We only have that much more reason to dismiss this new chorus of G-men “whistleblower” stories that just happen to align with the very narrative the Feds covertly pushed throughout the preceding decades. Like the Gypsy scam artist who robbed you a dozen times offering to make amends by selling you a “genuine Rolex watch” at half price. Don’t be a sucker.

Just look at a map of UFO phenomena. Almost all of it is concentrated in the US, Canada, Western Europe, and Australia:

Either UFOs’ preference for Eurostock nations (and our military installations, especially) is due to the fact that they are the product of blackbook aerospace programs based in those countries, or the aliens are just a bunch of White Supremacists avoiding ethnic neighborhoods. Maybe the ETs have that SketchFactor app?

It goes without saying that alongside blackbook experimental aircraft and hologram technology, some UFOs turn out to be natural atmospheric phenomena, like ball lightning, or will-o-wisps. And others still may in fact, fall into the category of demonic activity, but all of this ultimately comes down to a question of religious presuppositions. Biblical Christianity admits no wiggle room for the notion of ETs. But there are deceptive men and spirits aplenty.

Of course, someone will invoke C.S. Lewis’s Space Trilogy and argue that “without life on other planets the vastness of space would be a terrible waste, and God doesn’t make mistakes like that.” Such people will look you dead in the eye and declare this rhetorical flourish “proof”. But if granted, it would prove entirely too much, wouldn’t it? The moon is not populated. Terrible waste of space, ain’t it? For that matter, neither are the North and South poles, or Wyoming. If these realizations don’t demand any alteration to Christian doctrine, neither do barren planets in the bajillions.

But Lewis went only so far as to admit the possibility of ETs, not a sure belief.

“I look forward with horror to contact with the other inhabited planets, if there are such. We would only transport to them all of our sin and our acquisitiveness, and establish a new colonialism. I can’t bear to think of it. Once we find ourselves spiritually awakened, we can go to outer space and take the good things with us. That is quite a different matter.” ~The Timeless Writings of C. S. Lewis: The Pilgrim’s Regress, Christian Reflections, and God in the Dock (New York: Inspirational Press, n.d.), 482.

Here we see the basis of Lewis’s story Out Of The Silent Planet. He assumed that if ETs existed, they would be unfallen races.

And that on the grounds that they would not be sons of Adam and subject to his Fall. 

But Lewis did not reason the matter through to the end. For if these imagined aliens weren’t part of the first Adam, neither could they have part in the Last Adam, Christ, nor His gospel. And scripture is emphatic that there is no other Savior, and no other gospel. Which means, should such hypothetical beings fall into sin, they would only fall into the same status as the cursed angels – the gospel could avail them nothing but greater condemnation.

As an aside, it should also be noted that Fallen Angels have a lot in common with the concept of ETs. And the phenomenon of alien visitation bears many of the same hallmarks as the experience of Incubi and Succubi – demons who attack people in the night – attested cross-culturally throughout history. Shadowmen, the Hag, and the Black Dog are all common experiences alongside Grey Aliens in the realm of Sleep Paralysis. And time permitting, a solid case could be made for them all being manifestations of the same thing – Demons in various guises.

But to insist on shoehorning ETs into a Christian cosmos? “Magical thinking” is too kind a term. It is the declaration that in spite of Scripture’s painstaking description of a geocentric/anthropocentric Creation, and total preoccupation with the correspondence between Heaven and Earth, and men and angels, God’s cosmos is mostly populated by comparable species which go entirely unmentioned. It is less than an argument from silence. It is an argument at odds with all that He has revealed.

The ‘wasted space’ argument for God having made aliens amounts to saying that “I know God made aliens because it’s what I would have done in His place.” Since they like the idea of ETs populating space, God must like it too, and they must therefore exist. You’ll recognize these mental gymnastics as idolatry – crafting a god in one’s own image.

The alien thesis rests intrinsically on a dismissal of the Genesis account. At best, those Christian syncretists who want it both ways wind up arguing that the bible is misleading on the subject. Which is the same thing as accusing God of deception.

Whereas God says He made the Universe over the course of a week, and different aspects of our earthly environment each day in that week, He tells us He made the celestial bodies – sun moon, stars, other planets, etc., – on the fourth day. A single day. Almost an afterthought. The other planets simply were not treated with the same elaborate procedure. They were not made in a way comparable to earth, nor filled with flora and fauna as the earth was. 

The biblical Creation was therefore geocentric and anthropocentric in orientation. And it so happens that this is the implicit telos observed in all other planets. All other observed planets are barren – a fact which in itself testifies to the special circumstances of our world. The other planets of our solar system also affect various magnetic forces which keep the earth in her angles of orbit, tilt of her axis, and position relative to the sun, etc. Which are not only necessary to our seasons, but to the continued existence of life on earth. Even the moon testifies to the same significance of the earth. The lunar orbit not only counterpoises the clockwork orbits of many other bodies, but even governs our tides, and regulates the physiology of all life on earth. Which is to say that other worlds are positioned as needful tributaries to our ecosystem, without which we could not live. But all point back to us.

As Robert Sungenis underscored in The Principle, the whole universe is actually organized in ley lines which all point back to our location, marking our galaxy, solar system, and planet, for the apparent center of Creation. Just as the book of Genesis intimates. 

Over against which, belief in Spielbergian creatures from Alpha Centauri requires the assumption of a relativistic orientation of the cosmos. Despite Sungenis (to say nothing of his many hostile witnesses) proving otherwise, the liberal orthodoxy maintains that no possible center exists. Though they claim objective data and objective handling thereof, as well as belief that the universe emanated from a single point, they arrive nonetheless at the utterly self-negating conclusion of a relativistic cosmology where no directional references of up, down, edges, or middle can exist. While superficially comporting with their relativistic metaphysics and ethics, it is at loggerheads with their every claim to objectivity and scientific deduction. Plainly, they are hypocrites preaching an incoherent religion of self-worship.

And those desirous to fit this alien hypothesis into Christianity per Lewis’s Space Trilogy wind up turning a Christian analogy/fairy tale into a work of dogmatics. But The Space Trilogy no more confirms the existence of aliens than The Chronicles of Narnia proves the existence of magic wardrobes. It simply isn’t the point.

In the final analysis, no Christian can board the mothership with Tucker because it requires him to deny the veracity of the Word of God, and plain horse sense. At best, anyone hoping to weld the alien thesis into Christianity winds up saying that the biblical Creation account is intentionally misleading. Which again, precludes them being Christian at all. 

And remember what Ronnie said: if they can convince you of some offworld extraterrestrial threat, all other concerns will be subordinate to it. Meaning a total suppression of Christianity in all areas of life. If you thought it was bad being accused of “Russian collusion” during the Trump era, just imagine what charges of “Alien collusion” would be like. Every Conservative, Right-wing, Nationalist, Familist, and Christian value and every God-given right would be crushed under the bootheel of one-world government. And any who dared resist would be deemed “Traitors to Humanity” – a term already in wide use against White people, incidentally – with the force of law behind it. A revived and enhanced Comintern, Babel restored. Those are the stakes.

Don’t get onboard this new “To Serve Man” scheme. It’s a cookbook.
