Heavenly Lights: The Apparitions of Fatima and the UFO Phenomenon examines the testimony from the Fatima apparitions of the Mary in 1917. The author not only looks at the commonalities in descriptions but also how the descriptions changed over time, particularly as the children were in contact with the local Bishop and other Catholic authorities. It is intriguing indeed intriguing that the children’s descriptions transformed from not being sure if the image was Mary to swearing that the apparition was definitely the Holy Mother.
During this investigation, the author began to wonder if this incident resembled other recorded incidents of this type. Interestingly, as the author scrutinized these records he began to realize that there were striking similarities between many of the Marian Apparitions and recorded incidents of close encounters with alien beings. The only real difference was that those recorded as Marian Apparitions were noted by strict Catholics.
Heavenly Lights: The Apparitions of Fatima and the UFO Phenomenon contains some very fascinating research that raises some very remarkable questions. Do the Marian Apparitions have the same root as alien encounters? If so, what actually causes these incidents?
