A conservative US Catholic nun has warned that every UFO sighting and supposed alien encounter may in fact be a brush with 'fallen angels,' arguing that the strange lights and craft reported in the skies are part of a spiritual deception unfolding in the modern world.
The comments came from Mother Miriam of the Lamb of God, a Brooklyn-born convert who now runs a monastery in Oklahoma and hosts a regular religious podcast. In a recent episode, she took a listener's question about extraterrestrials and steered it somewhere far darker than science fiction, framing UFO lore not as harmless curiosity but as a front in what she called a 'great cosmic war.'
