Author suggests that present tl Jlogy may be based on false premises
since the experiences and visiu1ls of saints are phenomena that might be
associated with UFOs and the~: extraterrestrial crews. He reviews the
mythological and religious traditions of the countries of ti1e world to

caused by interplanetary warfart! rather than by collision o! celestial
bodies with earth.
