"When things are going seriously bad during the Great Tribulation, it will be difficult to stick with ordinary explanations. Aliens could provide a nice alibi."

My favorite Alien movie: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Day_the_Earth_Stood_Still] The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)

As I have skipped past the History Channel on the way to a sports game, I note that they have been doing a lot about aliens, assuming that many ancient sites were planted by or inspired by aliens. Stonehenge, etc. are the claims they are making.

When the rapture occurs and the tribulation hits, the earth will see such anguish that I agree it would be easy to blame aliens.

I am reminded that “Knowing the terror of the Lord, we persuade men”

I have a book called “The Ancient Roots Of Modern Science” that looks at astronomy, geology, anatomy, and other subjects. Many of the ancient sites were very precisely arranged to line up with major solar events. The ancients were not primitive savages, but very keen observers of the world around them. In our age, we have the benefit of more precise instruments, but the key is that we must see this physical universe in the light of Scripture.
