Marine vet stuns Robertsons with biblical theory linking aliens, Nephilim, and demons



Interest in the extraterrestrial continues to mount in the wake of President Trump’s recent order to declassify government documents on UFOs/UAPs. Theories about what aliens and flying saucers really are dominate social media every day.

On a recent episode of “Unashamed,” Jase and Al Robertson along with Zach Dasher welcomed Marine veteran, Mighty Oaks founder, and author Chad Robichaux to the show to share his wild biblical theory on UFOs, giants, and demons.

Whether or not what’s in the government files — historical sightings, military encounters, astronaut reports, etc. — is real or fake, Robichaux believes the church is obligated to address the subject so it doesn’t “throw people off their faith.”

The majority of Christendom, he explains, holds an “anthropocentric view,” meaning it interprets humanity as the epicenter of the created cosmos.

Robichaux fears that if something related to the extraterrestrial proves true, it would shatter this widely held worldview and throw Christians into a state of confusion and doubt.

He highlights the biblical passages about the “secret places and secret things” of God’s universe and the numerous mentions of various celestial beings.

“I think [humans] are special,” he caveats. “God sent His only son on earth to die for us. We're special and made in His image, but that doesn't mean necessarily we're the only one.”

Robichaux believes that “The Book of the Watchers,” the first section of the Book of Enoch — an ancient Jewish text that expands on the origins of Genesis 6’s mysterious half-human/half-god Nephilim — provides reliable information as it “doesn’t contradict the gospel in any way.”

According to the text, a group of 200 “Watchers” (angels assigned to watch over humans on the earth) rebelled by mating with human women, producing the Nephilim and necessitating the Noachian flood.

But being neither fully human nor fully god, the Nephilims’ fate was unique, says Robichaux.

“They can't go to eternal death or life like us, and so their spirits ... roam the earth, and this is what the Book of Enoch says: The demonic world that we're facing, the spiritual demons that we see in our world, are the disembodied spirits of these giants,” he explains.

Perhaps modern UFO sightings and "alien" encounters are these same Nephilim spirits manifesting in physical or interdimensional forms to deceive humanity.

If Christians want to stay rooted in truth, Robichaux argues that their anthropocentric perspective must be replaced with a Christocentric view that sees Jesus Christ as the hub of the cosmos’ wheel and humans — as well as every other created being — as spokes.

If this becomes the Christian worldview, “little green men [coming] off a spaceship” won’t shake believers’ faith, he says.

Grainy UFO files called a ‘deep-state classic,’ while mysterious object appears during Philippines volcano eruption



As the Pentagon continues releasing highly anticipated UFO files that so far span 80 years of sightings, the public continues asking why all of the video is grainy.

And Republican Rep. Tim Burchett (Tenn.) is one of them.

“The stuff they’re dropping right now is just — I mean, this is the deep-state classic,” Burchett said.

“You know, they won’t show y’all some of the stuff that we’ve seen. They’re going to show stuff that is easily identifiable,” he continued after the latest UFO files drop.


“So there obviously is footage of easily identifiable UFOs,” BlazeTV host Pat Gray says on “Pat Gray Unleashed.”

However, the newly released UFO files aren’t the only recent evidence of extraterrestrials.

Unlike the grainy footage in the UFO files, executive producer Keith Malinak plays one clip of a volcanic explosion in the Philippines — where a mysterious object appears after a meteor shoots behind the Mayon Volcano.

“Looks like a lightning strike almost,” Gray comments.

“So if later today you hear about aliens in the Philippines, well, now you understand why they originated there, because that’s where they landed,” Malinak says.

“Yeah, if you’re an alien," Jeff Fisher jokes, "you want to land in the Philippines."

Obama’s Colbert ‘fake applause’ interview goes off the rails with ‘little green men’ denial



Former President Barack Obama’s latest appearance on Stephen Colbert’s late-night show had it all, from thinly veiled critiques aimed at the current presidency and the Republican Party to alien skepticism.

And BlazeTV host Pat Gray wasn’t impressed, pointing out that the applause throughout the interview sounded “fake.”

“I’ve never seen that in an interview with the president before,” he notes.

In the interview, Obama told Colbert that “the presidential center is nonpartisan” before immediately pivoting to concerns about Republicans and Donald Trump.


“The reason I want to mention that is because I’m worried about the Republican Party, not just the Democratic Party,” Obama told Colbert, while Gray listens and scoffs.

“When I was president, people would ask me, ‘Well, what change would you like to see in Washington?’” Obama told Colbert. “I’d say, ‘I’d love a loyal opposition. I’d love a Republican Party that was conservative in some ways, that didn’t agree with me on a whole bunch of stuff, but believed in rule of law.'”

“We’re going to have to do some work to return to this basic norm, and we probably now have to codify it,” he explained. “The White House shouldn’t be able to direct the attorney general to go around prosecuting whoever.”

“The idea is that the attorney general is the people’s lawyer, it’s not the president’s consigliere, right?” Obama asks.

Obama went on to explain that “we can’t overcome the politicization of the criminal justice system” to another round of “fake” applause.

Colbert then asked Obama about aliens, to which Obama replied that for the people “that still think that we’ve got little green men underground somewhere,” there’s no need to speculate because “the government is terrible at keeping secrets.”

“This idea of conspiracy theories, if there were aliens or alien spaceships or anything under the control of the United States government that we knew about, seen, photographs, what have you, I promise you, some guy guarding the installation would have taken a selfie with one of the aliens and sent it to his girlfriend,” he said.

“Do you wish they were real?” Colbert asked Obama.

“I actually do,” he responded.

Executive producer Keith Malinak isn’t buying it, commenting, “Never denied it.”

Aliens or demons? Pastor’s viral response to UFO files is calming Christian fears



On May 8, the U.S. Department of War released an initial batch of over 160 never-before-seen declassified UAP/UFO files, including photos, videos, and reports spanning decades. Additional files are set to be released periodically as more documents are reviewed.

The Christian response to the ongoing file dump has been overwhelmingly cautionary, with several prominent evangelical leaders and figures interpreting the phenomena as demonic rather than extraterrestrial. Many have expressed concern that these revelations could shake foundational beliefs about creation or lead to spiritual confusion.

Rick Burgess, BlazeTV host of the spiritual warfare podcast “Strange Encounters,” is among those concerned that these “alien” files could lead believers astray.

Of all the Christian responses to the UFO files Rick has seen, Rick believes Josh Howerton, senior pastor of Lakepointe Church in Dallas, Texas, has had the best.

He plays a viral clip of Howerton’s biblical response of the file dump and the concept of extraterrestrial life.

“If extraterrestrial life were discovered, that does not destroy your faith,” he declared, saying that Scripture uses the plural (heavens) when talking about God creating the cosmos.

Howerton explained that biblical writers understood there to be “three heavens” — “the sky where the clouds are ... outer space, and ... actual heaven — throne room of God.”

“So when Colossians 1 says that ‘He created all things in the heavens,’ if there were things that He created in the second heavens (outer space), well, hey guys, we have a category for that. They're called angels and demons,” he clarified.

“What a lot of people may be calling aliens, the Bible might call things like cherubim, seraphim, angels, archangels, thrones, principalities, demons, and powers,” he added, noting that Satan is unironically referred to in Ephesians 2 as “the prince of the powers of the air.”

Saying that Jesus warned the end of days would mirror those of Noah, Howerton urged Christians to avoid getting sucked into the UFO/alien conversation: “If [demons are] ... what we believe [aliens] are, I'm not going to mess with that stuff. One of Satan's strategies is to get people to devote themselves to myths and endless speculation. ... What's the main thing? To know Christ, live free, and change the world for God's glory. Don't start giving level eight attention to things of level 0.002 importance.”

Rick calls Howerton’s response “excellent.”

“Don't forget that Lucifer and all the demons that went with him, they are supernatural beings. They are not human, and apparently in that supernatural world, angels and demons can do things and appear in various images, things that human beings cannot do,” he reiterates.

Rick believes that Satan and his forces are going to use these UFO/alien files to “rattle the church” and make people “doubt that God exists.”

“There is a great deception coming,” he warns.

Pentagon publishes first tranche of 'hidden' UFO files



President Donald Trump declared in February that in response to "tremendous" public interest, he was "directing the Secretary of War, and other relevant Departments and Agencies, to begin the process of identifying and releasing Government files related to alien and extraterrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), and unidentified flying objects (UFOs)."

On Friday, pursuant to the president's directive, the Pentagon — with support from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence — released hundreds of declassified unidentified aerial phenomena files pertaining to "unresolved cases" where the "government is unable to make a definitive determination on the nature of the observed phenomena."

'Provide the American people with maximum transparency.'

The Pentagon indicated that additional files will be released on a rolling basis.

"These files, hidden behind classifications, have long fueled justified speculation — and it’s time the American people see it for themselves," Secretary of War Pete Hegseth said in a statement. "This release of declassified documents demonstrates the Trump administration’s earnest commitment to unprecedented transparency."

The first tranche of documents, some of which date back to the first half of the 20th century, includes investigative records; witness testimonies from civilians, members of the American military, astronauts, and federal law enforcement officials; numerous military mission reports; government documents humoring the possibility of extraterrestrial life; and annotated news clippings regarding UAP.

The Pentagon also released numerous images of UAP, including a 1972 photograph from the Apollo 17 mission to the moon in which "three lights are visible above the lunar terrain"; a 2024 U.S. Indo-Pacific Command photo of an unexplained football-shaped UAP; and multiple FBI infrared images taken in December of an UFO over the Western United States.

"Under President Trump’s leadership, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence is actively coordinating the Intelligence Community’s declassification efforts with the Department of War to ensure a careful, comprehensive, and unprecedented review of our holdings to provide the American people with maximum transparency," stated Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard. "Today’s release is the first in what will be an ongoing joint declassification and release effort."

Tennessee Rep. Tim Burchett (R) joined other lawmakers in celebrating the release of the files and thanked Trump for keeping his word. "This is a great start!" Burchett said.

Glenn Beck’s mind blown: What if aliens are really disembodied Nephilim?



As UFOs, aliens, and disclosure become increasingly popular topics of discussion, a theory is gaining traction among certain Christian circles: that aliens do not exist, and any contact with one is actually an encounter with a demon masquerading as an extraterrestrial.

Glenn Beck has mixed feelings about this theory. While he rejects the notion that any being that comes from another planet is not part of God’s design and is evil, he also believes that many alien and UFO encounters have demonic explanations.

To dive into this subject, Glenn invites Faithwire journalist and supernatural podcast host Billy Hallowell to “The Glenn Beck Program” for a fascinating conversation about several possible explanations.

Hallowell explains that the general consensus, “even among a lot of scientists,” is that “people are seeing something” that is very real. The crux of the alien debate today lies more in what people are seeing: beings from outer space or beings from a spiritual dimension.

The theory that they’re all spiritual beings isn’t without merit, he explains. The Bible “doesn’t just say there’s Satan and demons. It talks about principalities and powers, and there’s some mystery here in what is going on,” he tells Glenn.

Further, it’s plausible to believe that demons can take an alien form when you consider that throughout Scripture, angels “show up in different forms.”

However, the debate gets even more complicated in that not everybody agrees on what demons are.

“Now, the common belief is that demons are fallen angels. ... The other theory is that demons are actually the disembodied spirits of the Nephilim,” Hallowell says.

The latter theory, he explains, draws from both Scripture and the book of Enoch and posits that the Nephilim (the giant offspring of human women and fallen angels) whose physical bodies were wiped in the flood went “looking for bodies, and that’s what demons are.”

Glenn is fascinated by this idea. “You’re saying that they didn’t go away, that this might be the explanation for what we’re seeing?” he asks.

Hallowell notes that according to the theories discussed, these entities — whether fallen angels or disembodied Nephilim spirits — can physically manifest, and some believe this explains why people report encountering beings that look like aliens.

This idea, he says, then leads to another question: “Why would they do that? Is there a deception here?”

Glenn isn’t sure what to believe about aliens, but he is certain that where demons are at work, deception is sure to be at play.

“The whole point of the dark side is deception,” he says.

Billy Hallowell’s new docuseries proves believing in the supernatural is not only understandable — it’s reasonable!



We are living in a highly re-mystified world. Today, more people believe in the supernatural than don’t. Major surveys consistently show that belief in God, spirits, souls, life after death, or related concepts far outnumbers strict naturalism or atheism across the globe.

And our entertainment landscape is reflecting that shift. In his new docuseries “Investigating the Supernatural: Angels and Demons,” investigative journalist Billy Hallowell explores the reality of angels, demons, spiritual warfare, and the unseen realm through evidence, testimonies, and biblical perspectives.

Now he joins Glenn Beck to discuss why — in light of the evidence presented in his docuseries — believing in the supernatural is not only understandable, but very reasonable


Even though he’s a “Christian” who “[believes] in the Bible,” Hallowell admits that he can be quite skeptical about supernatural testimonies because “we can make claims all day,” but producing this series has virtually crushed that skepticism.

“I was shocked by the staggering amount of evidence that is there,” he tells Glenn.

The evidence is so convincing and so abundant, in fact, that it’s actually becoming an effective evangelical tool — especially when it comes to younger generations, Hallowell says.

“This supernatural evidence is the thing that could bring [young people] over the line into faith because they’ve been so lied to for so long, so forced into this weird secular worldview that when you see something crazy that has evidence, it brings you into the faith,” he explains.

But sometimes, it doesn’t even take hard evidence for people to cross the line into belief in the supernatural. Glenn argues that many people are becoming believers simply because of the objective darkness they’re witnessing.

“We’re watching good and evil — angels and demons — duke it out all around us right now. And we’re just feeling the aftereffects,” he says.

Hallowell says Glenn’s words reflect Paul’s teaching in Ephesians 6:12: “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”

“I actually don’t think ... that we can really understand fully what is happening in the world around us and in our individual lives if we don't understand that battle,” he says.

Hallowell’s docuseries is “a quest” to do just that — understand the world around us by examining it through a spiritual lens. And that includes aliens.

Selective Service quietly overhauls military draft registration process — but will only US citizens be affected?



The 2026 National Defense Authorization Act ratified by President Donald Trump in December is overhauling the draft registration process.

Under the new law, "every male citizen of the United States, and every other male person residing in the United States, between the ages of 18 and 26" will be registered for the draft automatically. The previous policy required young men to self-register within 30 days of their 18th birthday.

'Undocumented immigrants are by definition not giving data.'

Craig Brown, the acting director of the Selective Service System since 2021, noted in a report earlier this year that automatic registration was among the top three transformational initiatives that his agency — which is tasked with registering men and maintaining a system that "rapidly provides manpower in a fair and just manner" — would pursue over the next five years.

Sure enough, the SSS submitted a proposed rule change to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs on March 30 titled "Automatic Registration."

Per the SSS, "This statutory change transfers responsibility for registration from individual men to SSS through integration with federal data sources."

The SSS strategic plan notes that implementation will be executed in alignment with Trump's Executive Order 14243, which directed federal agency heads to ensure that federal officials "have full and prompt access to all unclassified agency records, data, software systems, and information technology systems — or their equivalents if providing access to an equivalent dataset does not delay access — for purposes of pursuing administration priorities related to the identification and elimination of waste, fraud, and abuse."

It's presently unclear whether automation with improved inter-agency data-sharing and the Department of Homeland Security's boosted alien registration efforts will address the suspected under-registration of draft-eligible parolees, illegal aliens, legal permanent residents, and asylum-seekers.

The Oversight Project raised concerns last year about possible widespread criminal noncompliance by inadmissible aliens — concerns fueled in part by the absence of a surge in registrations during the Biden administration, according to data provided by the SSS to Congress.

These concerns were further fueled by documents hinting at an awareness behind the scenes at the SSS that the agency was failing to capture data on potential illegal alien registrants.

For instance, in an April 28, 2023, email obtained by the Oversight Project, SSS acting Director Brown noted that "undocumented immigrants are by definition not giving data. We get info on every male trying to legit stay in the country."

Mike Howell, president of the Oversight Project, told Blaze News, "I have no idea how they plan on automatically registering so-called undocumented immigrants into the Selective Service. Given the fact that the DOJ seems not to care about charging the hordes of military-aged male illegal aliens who came in during the Biden administration with failure to register, which could put them in jail for up to five years, I doubt that it's been considered in much detail or is even on the radar."

Blaze News has reached out to the SSS for comment.

According to an SSS report to Congress, the registration rate for eligible men in 2024 was 81%. The report suggested that automating the process might help bolster registration rates.

Failure to register for the draft is punishable by a fine of up to $250,000 and/or five years in prison. An individual who "knowingly counsels, aids, or abets" another person not to comply with the requirement can be slapped with the same penalties.

Failure to register could also jeopardize immigrants' U.S. citizenship, preclude offenders from receiving state-funded financial aid and job training, and cause ineligibility for various federal employment opportunities.
