Many 'wish' FIGU were a UFO religion for all sorts of delusional reasons of their own, rather than it actually fitting neatly into this category.

It's the only 'UFO Religion' if it is (which it's not), with no beliefs and real UFO's and real extraterrestrials, see [[The Witnesses]].

IMPORTANT NOTE
This article is not an official FIGU publication.


“Truly, it is not right to forbid opinion holders and religious believers, or believers in god, places in which they, individually or in groups can retreat or get together for the purpose of exchanging opinions, or for the religious reflection, because that does not correspond to freedom of opinion and freedom of belief. A different way of reflecting, striving and acting, which is directed against such places and their emblems, represents sheer sectarian and fanatical racism against religion and belief, as well as hatred of those who believe differently, and that is absolutely unacceptable in every form…”

What are five important aspects regarding Earth religions?

Source: Contact Report 031

  1. Religion is only a primitive machination by Man to command, suppress and exploit others, to which only life forms that are weak in their consciousness succumb.
  2. When Man indulges in his religions, i.e. malevolent, erroneous doctrines, his consciousness wastes away more and more and ultimately leads to a bottomless abyss.[1]
  3. Earth is the only planet within the Milky Way galaxy that has religions of our form. Our religions control people’s lives and the welfare of the whole planet retarding our world by thousands of years in spiritual development.[2]
  4. Every aspect of spiritual evolution is blocked by these religions, making any genuine progress impossible.[3]
  5. Our religions still contain some real worth, but this becomes so overshadowed that only a few people are able to see any effective truth in them.[4]



FIGU Forum, Questions Answered by Billy

Source: forum.figu.org: Your Questions to Billy Meier - Answered (External)

Why have we not yet destroyed ourselves like other star systems have done so because of religion?

From the FIGU Forum (Questions Answered by Billy):

Semjase said that the damage from the Christian religion had spread to other systems and galaxies and even caused their destruction. How is this possible when, as crazy as things are here, we haven't yet destroyed our own world over this, at least not to the extent she describes?


ANSWER: Hi Michael,

The other ones had more sophisticated weapons and technology to destroy themselves. We are still bound to our planet (luckily, in this respect). We are still in our baby shoes compared to them (in technical aspects).[5]



Excerpt from Contact Report 039

Billy:
"I know that very well, and in these falsified assertions, the boundless stupidity and lack of education of the scribes inevitably comes to full expression, for how else could they have written in their fantasy story that Ararat is the highest mountain in the world, and on the other hand, how, for example, could elephants as well as mammoths, which were still there at that time, rhinoceroses and all other 4-legged animals, etc. have climbed down from Ararat? I happen to know the mountain very well and know that even a good mountain climber has lots of distress and trouble when wanting to conquer the mountain.

Semjase:
275. Not all Earth human beings think logically and with a sharp mind.

276. Many also live in some belief of an unreal religion, which forbids them to reflect upon and investigate such matters.

277. On the other hand, you also have to consider that you have traveled very far, and you have considered everything very precisely.

278. As I know, you’ve traveled 43 countries of the Earth and have tirelessly been in investigations.

279. So you have - also with our assistance - experienced and found many more things than what the best archaeologists and other scientists of the Earth have ever managed to do.

280. Moreover, you’ve also traveled outer space and the DAL Universe with us and have seen various foreign worlds and other life forms.

Billy:
Maybe you’re right..."

UFO Religion

FIGU and Billy Meier have been placed into the category of UFO Religion by academics, governments, institutions, organisations, scholars and scientists of various kinds. It has been contested at every possible opportunity by FIGU, with the definition aperture of what a UFO religion is, broadening to accommodate it. FIGU didn't quite fit into the category compared with the other candidates so the categorisation specialists had to warp FIGU information, to be bend and moulded it into the shape the definition would allow for to accommodate it.

A UFO religion is any religion (FIGU is not a religion) in which the existence of extraterrestrial (ET) entities operating unidentified flying objects (UFOs) is an element of belief (FIGU doesn't believe). Typically, adherents of such religions believe the ETs to be interested in the welfare of humanity which either already is, or eventually will become, part of a pre-existing ET civilisation (FIGU say that evolution is not guaranteed). Others may incorporate ETs into a more supernatural worldview in which the UFO occupants are more akin to angels (FIGU says angels are fictional) than physical aliens; this distinction may be blurred within the overall subculture. These religions have their roots in the tropes of early science fiction (especially space opera) and weird fiction writings, in ufology, and in the subculture of UFO sightings and alien abduction stories (FIGU's literature isn't 'rooted' this way).

Many 'wish' FIGU were a UFO religion for all sorts of delusional reasons of their own, rather than it actually fitting neatly into this category. There is not denial there however that some of these things can be seen several ways and there are several perspectives. FIGU have distanced themselves from many things. It's the only 'UFO Religion' if it is (which it's not), with no beliefs and real UFO's and real extraterrestrials, see The Witnesses.

The position of FIGU is not enviable either way, which ever definition you settle for because it's surrounded by religions and UFO religions on all fronts.
