Be wary brothers and sisters, please familiarize yourselves with the word of God. Lest you be decieved by evil and demonic people such as the ones represented in this video. To some it seems obvious this stuff is a scam, but you never know when someone will come around spouting something and you mistake it for truth. You never know when someone will come mirroring the miracles of Jesus christ and trick you into following their word. https://youtu.be/1G9s04RAhHg

Do you ever think the angels as they are described, could have been what is potentially thought of now as machine elves?

No different than if I were to bring a helicopter back then. It'd most like get a biological description, since they knew of no such machine nor a way to describe it beyond the understanding they'd have. At the very least, it'd go down as something not of this world and probably "divine". Ever heard of the Sentinelese of north sentinel island? When they first saw a helicopter, they had their bows drawn in fear. Of course, they don't particularly like outsiders regardless and I don't blame them one tiny bit. Oh and by all means... If you feel a spiritual calling, go there... I heard it worked out fantastically for the last missionary. Of course, you'd probably also wipe them out with diseases you'd be bringing. God's justice!

@hell_hound7 I agree that those TV Evangelists are not acting in God's name. The point of giving wealth to a nonprofit organization is with the understanding that with God's guidance such wealth shall be distributed in an open and transparent manner to the less fortunate. Some proceeds shall understandably go towards improvements for the places of worship in repairs as well as other administration needs, but that money must never be used to grant those of good fortune or status additional wealth! It's transparent that those Pastors were well dressed in lavish clothes with fancy high dollar jewelry which was the calling card of a self server. Christ rebuked the Jewish leaders of his time because of the clothing they wore as well as how they demanded monetary gifts to bestow God's blessings. It was a sin then and still a sin now!

No i do not believe the biblically accurate angel was a machine elf or helicopter or whatever else. Also even if you wanna say "hey maybe they worshiped something that was foreign to them" because of some illogical notion that some tribe that has remained cut off from the rest of civilization might do the same. Then the question you fail to account for is what, what is it that they saw? What in that time was so advanced that they feared or thought of it to be a God. Why is it that people like to look back at humans in the past and believe we are much smarter than they are. Sure some people got the idea the world was flat and blah blah blah but even with advanced society we have people who think chocolate milk comes from brown cows. Peopleof every generation are stupid. But that doesnt mean we are inherently more knowledgeable. These people doubted God even within the bible. So how is all this just dismissed? People like to dismiss the bible by saying moses took psychedelics and thats why he saw the burning bush speaking to him and blah blah blah. The fact of the matter is even with that logic there is still something missing. When moses describes the cloud going up or people saying moses' skine shone. Literally hundreds of people were on psychedelics at once? Literally hundreds of people saw something foreign telling them be not afraid. Even if this something is aliens that visited us long ago something still existed.

That guy could have gone back. He made it to his boat after being wounded but decided to go back and try again. The one who went to the Setinelese island. Being attacked wasn't enough of a warning? The missionaries before had a colonial army behind them. I don't think these religious icons were just hallucinations. I do think they saw something unique. There's still lots of mysterious out there.

Oh, I don't doubt they saw things. As for the guy who got attacked? Some people just have a death wish.lol My main point was, without access to tech, people long ago seeing even current tech would be blown away in amazement and not know how to describe it other thant as they themselves would recognize. I was half jokingly going off of veru's comment.

@verucassault From what I hear, the machine elves are not the only entities in the DMT realm. So it could be possible that they inhabit the same space, but at the same time it could possibly be something totally different. In truth, we have no clue exactly what was seen since we only have vague desriptions of what was seen and no art that we know of by those that saw it.
