UFO religions are belief systems that incorporate the existence of extraterrestrial life and often claim that these beings have a significant role in human affairs. Followers may believe that UFOs are vehicles used by advanced civilizations to communicate with or guide humanity. These religions often blend elements of spirituality, science fiction, and new age philosophies. Many UFO religions, such as Raelism and Heaven's Gate, have unique teachings about the nature of the universe and humanity's place within it. They may promote ideas of personal transformation, enlightenment, or even salvation through contact with extraterrestrial beings. These groups often attract individuals seeking alternative spiritual experiences.
