My thought may be stuck in the religious mode (I just finished reading some Eliade), but I think what is being referred to hear is an encounter with something that in the past is referred to as angelic, today as extraterrestrial. No matter which way one views these things, angelic or alien, it is an experience that is very individual. In my youth, I was a member of a church that had a belief in personal experiences with God, and I met many people who claimed to have had God in some way speak through them. I no longer believe they were experiencing what they thought, but it is not a question of them out and out lying, for the most part. On the contrary, they believed in what they experienced very deeply. It could have been auto suggestion, or it most certainly could have been some kind of psycho-pathology, or it could have been something more profound. Those who were convinced of the metaphysical reality of these experiences tended to believe not just in one or two instances, but wanted to be convinced of the reality of all of them. Those unconvinced generally will see such things as a sort of pathological symptom. My point is that Phares is a visitor of some sort. The key may be in his name (Phares = seraph, i. e. Seraphim) as well. Ever met anyone who said they saw an angel? Or that one applied for a job with them? How about an ET? GERD Well explain. But what i think its that EJ idea was less on the place of coming- or originated-; I mean, its no the matter its from psycopathology(profets were no doubt psycothic), from an angel, an ET or God itself- one could say that the psycothic thing, the vision of an angel, or of a ET its god itself, or autosuggestion its an inside god. The J thinking is that yesterday that was real- angels were actual to people- and now not, is that a loss? Best wishes roberto
