Communications from "Stars" or "Angels" in Today's UFO Cults? Nothing New – The Generation of the Flood Did That Too

the-1-idea-you-need-to-know-when-hearing-anything-about-space-aliens-ufos.html

In the English version of the Me'am Loez on Parshat Noach (Beresheis 5:11), page 309, the following appears regarding the generation punished by dying in the Flood:
As time passed, other charlatans began to appear; they claimed that an angel or star had spoken to them and had told them to worship it.

​Each one invented a different kind of worship.

This struck me because over the past decades, different UFO cults developed — all based on communications with either angels or far-off stars.

​Based on this Me'am Lo'ez (published in 1730 in Constantinople), we see these movements are nothing new.

The leaders of these movements either knowingly fool people or they truly believe they communicate with stars (or entities inhabiting those stars) or angels. But either way, they are charlatans...just like their counterparts in the Generation of the Flood.

(And if they truly receive communications, the communications are definitely not from stars or angels. It's either their own malfunctioning mind or they've attracted the attention of impure entities much closer to home.)

Either way, this stands as yet another indication the Generation of the Flood has reincarnated into our generation:

I’m not saying that I believe in ETs. However there are first person accounts of dealings with “other than humans”. Rav Miller bases his statement on “humans” and that is correct, humans (man) are only on Earth. But the others believe based on eyewitness accounts. Very controversial indeed. We believing Jews are to be only concerned with the creations of HaShem and this world that is to last as such til 6000. After that and after the age of Mashiach, according to Rabbi Kessin and others life as we know it changes, and eventually the surviving neshomas become spiritual beings in a spiritual existence with HaShem. Something to look forward to indeed.
