Monsignor Stephen J. Rossetti, who serves as chief exorcist for the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Washington, joined the growing chorus of Catholics and other Christians warning that UFOs and related phenomena are likely demonic.
During a brief message posted last Friday to the YouTube page of his St. Michael Center for Spiritual Renewal, Rossetti noted the growing national conversation about UFOs. He acknowledged that believing life exists on other planets is theologically neutral, but warned that demons may misrepresent themselves as extraterrestrials to manipulate and deceive.
“But there's a danger here ... as an exorcist, I wanted to raise that danger: and that is that demons like to hide, they don't want us to know they're around," he said. "They don't want us to know what they're doing because they're more effective when we don't realize it. And they can kind of get into your head ... and manipulate things in the world to influence us to do evil."
Rossetti said Ephesians 6:12 makes clear that humanity is engaged in warfare against spiritual forces of wickedness in high places and encourages Christians to "put on the armor of God" to resist them.
