Arlan is a good friend of mine, and I agree with his take on this 100%. He posted this on facebook two days ago. For those wondering who he might be, here is something more about him: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arlan_Andrews

Lately, because of news at the national level, I've been asked what I think about UFOs. Based on an interest in the subject for decades, this is what I published in 1980. I see no reason to change it now.
MY POSITION STATEMENT ON UFOs:
Arlan Andrews, Sr.
-Former Mechanical Engineering Consultant, Aerial Phenomena Research Organization
-Former Mechanical Engineering Consultant, Mutual UFO Network
(From The UFO Encyclopedia, ed. Ron Story, Doubleday and Company, 1980)
There may be those few humans on Earth who know, precisely and thoroughly, what the UFO phenomena signify. If and when the rest of us share this knowledge, we may judge as to whether it is worth knowing and whether it is a pleasant circumstance. In the meanwhile we are left only to investigate the reports, analyze what data we can glean, and speculate upon its meaning.
The dozens of theories of “psychic UFOs” are all ways of viewing the data through one’s own interpretation of universal order—one’s paradigm. If one’s universe is populated with saints, devils, and angels, the UFO data seem to reveal a cosmic battle between Good and Evil, manifested in shining ships and evil aliens. The “nuts and bolts” interpretation, while seemingly more rational an explanation, in truth, rests upon faith almost as much as the metaphysical view. The simple fact is that we have no knowledge of any life beyond Earth, and all opinions are based in ignorance (excepting "those few", of course).
Nevertheless, my own interpretation is with the “hardware” group: I think that the data reveal that we are visited by craft from other solar systems or elsewhere in space, and that these craft have advanced means of propulsion and materialization and that the crews are (sometimes) humanoid and that they are neutral—neither friends nor foes. It is meaningless to further speculate upon their motives; we can’t even determine what motivates earthlings, much less aliens!
When all of the UFO data can be fit into an enlarged paradigm that includes the total universal environment—“spiritual,” “psychic,” “aural,” and physical—we will probably understand their place in the universal order is quite natural and that our present confusion arises from a limited sensory and mental capacity.

It was probably just some time machine from our future...lol

Sorry y'all but I'm old school. I don't believe in aliens from other worlds or alien UAPs, UFOs or whatever acronym you give them. I believe some of these are advanced military drones or related objects that we and a few other countries have been developing for decades. Who ever could've imagined we would discover nuclear fission capable of destroying all life on the planet? You telling me we can't make advanced propulsion systems? There are undercover Ops in all branches of government and in the military that I'm sure have protocols for keeping information secret/shared from other agencies and the general public. People believe in what they want - Bigfoot, Loch Ness Monster, legends du jour but that doesn't mean they're real. Where's a body? Where's legit DNA? Aliens? I guess hundreds of them, maybe thousands have been flying around observing and making tests on us over the years LOL.

The other side of it is God created man in his own image. We are his image as part of his creation. Aliens are not. I also think a good argument could be made that some of this is from the spiritual/unseen world - possibly demonic or angelic. I agree that you have to believe Scripture - which I do - so I guess that weakens my believing in legends argument some. Anywho, be careful taking what you read or see as factual truth. Just my two cents...
