Ancient Aliens is taking the week off for the holiday, and I spent part of this week at work finalizing a project, which will be announced next week. I am taking the next few days off to enjoy the last week of my son's summer vacation before I get back to the grind next week. In the meantime, enjoy George Knapp's bizarre speculation about the space aliens' evil agenda and its connection to conservative efforts to promote Intelligent Design, from yesterday's Joe Rogan Experience. It doesn't tell you much about aliens but tells you a lot about the mindset of the people pushing bizarre claims about space aliens. What could be so terrible that they can't tell us about it? Let's say, these aliens, wherever they're from, made us, that we're a genetic experiment. That they created our religions, our religious figures. That we are an agricultural product that somehow they harvest us. That our time is limited, that once the experiment is over, poof, we go away. […] Be careful what you wish for because you might find out that the intelligent designer isn't God that you're thinking of, it might be some alien science project or something like that. You can imagine a lot of different things that would be really disturbing to people to come out.

Both of them come from the same place. Both are religions.

Supposed “God” Yahweh was an alien of course.

George Knapp...I'm sure he is right, after all he vouched for the highly credible witness Bob Lazar.

Sounds like George was just speculating with no real seriousness. Not sure the reason to dunk on him for that comment.

George is summarizing the plot of many movies and even more books. Just be grateful he's not spewing nonsense about skinwalker ranch. He killed Coast to Coast AM with that crap. I used to know dozens of people who listened to that broadcast. Every single one of them quit listening when good old George took over from the previous George. Mr. Bell was much more entertaining to listen to while working overnights.

Wrong Movie Title

Make that "Jupiter Ascending". Apparently that movie was so stupid, no one caught the wrong title. Not even the Rehasher, Kent.

George Knapp seems to be familiar with SONG OF THE GREYS by Nigel Kerner. This is an important book about ETs, but also filled with stupefying science, philosophy and religion. Want a copy? Expensive and rare!

Whatever the deal is, it is intentional that "we" are kept clueless. I am not talking about being kept in the dark by government, but rather our actual creators. I mean lets get real; put aside religious factors and seriously speaking-why are we here?

Too bad my post about the real nature of "God" and the real Holy Trinity didn't make the cut. Ah well. :(

I'd not bring "conservatives" into this. Conservatives never argue that aliens in-universe drive intelligent-design.

Sounds vaguely like the plot of Jupiter Ascending
