From what I can tell, THIS particular group (Alien Resistance) thinks spacemen are 'actually' fallen angels/demons, rather than that Jesus and/or the angelic visitors and theophanies in the OT were 'really' extraterrestrial sightings.

However, even a cursory google of "Ezekiel and UFO" and "Bible and UFO" turned up a surprisingly large number of sites devoted to the "Touched by an Alien" side of the argument.

(I stole that line from a paper presentation at the annual meeting of the Society of Biblical Literature and the American Academy of Religion back in 1997. I forget which paper we were discussing -- perhaps it was the paper on the "Aliens" movies and religion, or a less memorable one on TV/movies and religion -- but a presenter made an off-hand comment about the short-lived TV show starring John Corbett, "The Visitor", and how it might just as well be titled "Touched by an Alien", since it merely substituted alien abductees for the dead-humans-turned-into-angels heroes of another long-running TV show.)
