In this interview, Dr. Steven Greer responds to recent comments made by Vice President J.D. Vance suggesting that unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), commonly referred to as aliens, are actually demonic entities. Greer expresses concern that Vance’s statements, originally made on the Benny Johnson Show, could incite unnecessary fear and religious extremism surrounding the topic of UAP. He argues that the advanced technology displayed by these phenomena, while appearing extraordinary, should be understood through a scientific lens rather than attributed to supernatural or evil forces. Greer cautions against conflating spiritual beliefs with objective investigation into UAP.
Greer bases his argument on decades of research and experience, including private meetings held with officials at the Vatican and within the Catholic Church. He contends that characterizing extraterrestrial life as demonic is a form of “interstellar racism” and hinders genuine scientific inquiry. He suggests that some within intelligence agencies, including the CIA, FBI, and Department of Defense, actively promote these extreme religious interpretations, potentially to manipulate public perception and even instigate conflict. References are made to historical figures like Thomas Jefferson and Jerry Falwell, and media personalities such as Tucker Carlson, in the context of societal anxieties and the spread of misinformation.
Furthermore, Greer highlights the potential for misinterpretation of UAP based on appearances, drawing parallels to historical instances of persecution, such as the Salem witch trials. He points to the importance of responsible discussion from leaders, and emphasizes the need to move past fear and superstition as increased disclosure about extraterrestrial encounters seems likely. The conversation touches on observations and alleged encounters in locations such as Arizona, Phoenix, and Norway, as well as mentions of past investigations dating back to at least the late 1950s.
Throughout the interview, Greer stresses the importance of a rational and scientific approach to understanding UAP, dismissing the notion of demonic origins as a dangerous and unfounded claim. He positions himself as a long-time advocate for transparency and open discussion regarding these phenomena, urging individuals and organizations to prioritize factual investigation over fear-based speculation. He alludes to potential developments in the coming months regarding increased disclosure and the need for a shift in public understanding.
