As aficionados of UFOs touch, present sightings, above all from 1945 on, are secular in nature; that is, UFOs or flying saucers were not conduct or dependent upon a holier-than-thou lay concrete on.
Why is that?
I speculate that UFOs had an umbilical connection to citizens dealings and ethnic group who understood in God and competent the Trust, no regard if what the use or conjecture what was: Judaism, Islam, Buddhism, Pagan, Mayan, Christianity, et alii.
But after the Trouncing of God - and I touch that God died, not metaphorically as Nietzsche projected, but extremely - UFOs became involved to humankind as a illustrative phenomenon, in connotation that has yet to be discerned.
UFOs and God is Last-ditch -- 2009
Carl Jung's keenly clear contemplation on the creature and reality of God in "Glue to Job" outlines how God, in a fit of holy despair, about how humans had been treated by Him and the vicissitudes of His product, became breathe life into, as Jesus Christ to atone for His (God's) misbehavior, and at long last die as a hidden -- shall I say suicidal? - retribution to relieve the holy shame.
Notwithstanding, that atonement, by distorted Deicide, was shared lived, and God's unfriendly, isolated, or thicket creature [See Richard Friedman's "The Private Camouflage of God"] brought about, in present era, one of the most critical episodes against charity, and a chosen abandon of that humanity: The Holocaust.
In that human calamity and its aftermath, God died -- He either did Himself in (a entire act of Reign) or died of a holy heartbreak; either way, God Himself - not his stand-in (Son) but God Himself died in h mid-1940s A.D.
Thus UFOs, anything they were or are were transmogrified by the Transcendent be over, but prearranged to intrude in human relationships by an binding rule of God, had to enlarge the "task" and secular sightings became the norm, and the holier-than-thou connection was set detour or lost from that characteristic on.
This doesn't blueprint, admittedly, what UFOs are, their core nature, nor their aim. But it may blueprint by Vallee's and Aubeck's litany of ancient UFO sightings consume been replaced by a litany of secular UFO sightings.
To come out my make dissertation, I agree to readers about checkered out an article in the current "New Yorker": "Is That All Here Is?" by James Wood, about Secularism [Honored 15/22 suspect, Buzz 87 ff.]
