Eh...that that would be the argument, that the followers of Von Daniken would say, why it' s so absurd for aliens to come when it's completely acceptable for God to intervene in human history? The difference is, Von Daniken's arguing that,aliens came, and gave technologies to people, to advance those cultures, sobasically they gave object, they gave new idea new technologies, and those cultures advanced because of them. More as, at least in the Bible, is kind oflike, god give, a human kind, a magic watch, you know, or new missile, that they could use to defeat their enemies. Eh... god gives, instruction, least the Bible records, god give instructions, EH... on how to live, but not how to build new devices that further or advancea specific culture.

Can we link Ezekiel's chariot to a UFO? The ancients use myth and metaphor and images to describe their experience ofgod, I think what we don't wanna fall to is a type of fundamental literalism.The stories of the 《Old Testament》 emerge at the people of their timeadd up their own context to make sense of their experience of god. We can gain insight by reading the 《Old Testament》, and reading about Ezekiel's chariot,but it is not to draw a straight analogy between his chariot and UFO.

When all of these stories were written down, writing was a fairly new invention. The very first thing they wrote down, is something that actually happened to them, it was soimportant, so compelling, so significant to them, that they had to put it in writing. Why can't modern society come to grips that these stories might be true after all.

Von Daniken's research turned up evidence of other arguably extraterrestrial phenomena, and not only in the Bible, almost every religionhas similar stories about deities with spectacular powers and abilities, whocome to earth and directly influence the lives of men.

Suddenly oneday I said to myself that, come on, this is similar, the stories in so many old religions, are they talking about extraterrestrials? These so-called gods are here, they giveorders, they force the humans do certain things, and one day they disappear, but they always disappear with the promise to return in the far away future.

If, as I believe, people in ancient civilizations were familiar with space travel, people in ancient civilizations were in communication with humanlike beings from other planets, then I think we should expect to find evidence for this in their literatures which we do find.

Throughout the ancient Sanskrit（梵语）epics of ancient India, there are numerous descriptions of Vemanas（维玛那飞行器）, or mythical flying machines. One of these accounts even datesback over 5000 years.

In the 《Bhagavad Porana》, which is an ancient Sanskrit history, there is a description of a spacecraft, that was piloted by a kingnamed Shol'va. It is described that was made of metal, it was described that itsometimes appeared to be in two places at once, it was described as having amotion similar to that of a butterfly. And these descriptions are consistent with what people who observe UFOs' today report.

In other Sanskrit text, such as the 《Mahabharata》（《摩诃波罗多》）, the 《Rig Veda》（《梨俱吠陀》）, the 《Ramayana》（《罗摩衍那》）, there can be found the descriptionsof Vemana, measuring as wide as 100 feet, and often equipped with capabilitiesof modern aircraft. One Vemana produced a shaft of light, which when focused ona target, consumed it, with its power.

It's like aBuck Rogers of Flash Gordon movie（美国1936年的科幻电影《哥顿飞侠》）from the thirties, they read like a wild science fiction, peopleare flying around, in airships called Vemanas, blasting each other and havingaerial fights, destroying entire cities...

And the crazything is, that, all of those stories are totally accepted in the modern societyof India.

I don't think we can say that, these descriptions are simply imagination, because even though they were written thousands of years ago, they match what many people today report, in terms ofobserving the actions of UFOs.
