Was the Star of Bethlehem an Alien Spacecraft?

There have been many explanations for the Star of Bethlehem. But what was it in the sky that led the Magi to the birth of a King?

Many plausible astronomical events have been cited such as the something known as a triple conjunction between Jupiter and Saturn. This happens when two planets come close together in the sky three times over a short period. It would have been a spectacular sight. If that’s what directed the Three Wise Men it would have had to happen just at the correct time for the birth.

Perhaps it was a comet. A comet sometimes looks like an arrow coming down in the distant horizon of earth as if it is pointing at a particular place. Again this would have had to happen just at the exact time, over just the right place and lasted long enough to lead the Three Wise Men to Bethlehem.

There’s a multitude of astronomical occurrences that could explain the star that announce His birth. All of them, of course, could have been orchestrated by the Lord to bring the new King into the world with a glorious sign.

Or have you ever considered the possibility that the Star of Bethlehem was a UFO that shone brightly over the manger in Bethlehem? It’s not difficult to imagine since the Catholic Church called aliens our “space brothers and sisters”. The Church has been nearly obsessed throughout their history with astronomy. It keeps two huge telescopes at Castel Gandolfo, the summer home of the Pope, and employs prominent astrologers to keep a close watch on the heavens. Some of the Papal Gardens appear to have crop circles from above. Are they searching for the return of aliens or have they been in constant contact since the Birth of Christ?

 

What do you believe?

Chris de Burgh immortalized this possibility it was a spaceship in a song “A Spaceman Came Travelling”

Merry Christmas!

Enjoy the song.
