Aliens: angels, demons or future humans?
The question of the true nature of extraterrestrials has sparked a debate that crosses the boundaries between science, spirituality and conspiracy. Far from being a mere matter of flying saucers, the UFO phenomenon connects with religions, parallel dimensions and even with humanity itself. Are they physical beings from other planets, spiritual entities, or perhaps time travellers? An analysis of the most influential theories reveals a pattern: none of them fully explains the reported experiences.
The UFO phenomenon as a spiritual experience
The most solid line of thought, represented by researcher Salvador Freixedo in his work "Ovniología" (2014), holds that the alien phenomenon is deeply tied to spirituality and religion. Freixedo argues that many experiences are not physical but psychic, symbolic and manipulative. He even suggests that religions may have been created by these entities, and that evil in the world is not simply human but directed from outside. This view connects with authors such as Jacques Vallée and Patrick Harpur, who see in UFOs a manifestation of daemonic realities, similar to the fairies and goblins of old, adapted to the modern era. The hypothesis that the greys and nordics are future humans — some refugees underground after a war, others emigrants to other planets — adds a temporal twist to the discussion.
Future humans and other dimensions
Another theory, forcefully argued, states that there are no aliens: the universe is teeming with humans. Humanity expanded across the cosmos thousands of years ago, sending out ships carrying human seeds to colonise worlds. Earth would be one of those colonies, which would explain our rapid technological advance. On the other hand, the interdimensional option is gaining trinc: the visitors could be beings from other dimensions or parallel realities, capable of manipulating space-time. This position does not exclude the others: all of them could be true at once. The debate turns metaphysical when the question is raised whether these entities are controlled by a God or creator, or act with complete independence, as researcher Corrado Malanga argues, describing a catalogue of corporeal and incorporeal "critters" parasitising humanity.
Scepticism and the search for answers
Against these theories, scepticism is never in short supply. Some dismiss the whole affair as baseless tales, while others point out that the phenomenon has been documented since ancient times. The recommendation to read John Keel and his "The Mothman Prophecies" rings true: "We are not allowed to know". The paradox of the infinite multiverse suggests that if everything is possible, then it is also possible that there are no extraterrestrials. The truth is that, despite decades of research, the central question remains open: if aliens really exist, what are they? The answer, perhaps, is not a single one.
