Giant Rock, California, where George Van Tassel allegedly met aliens who told him that the Bible was based upon distorted tales of ancient alien visitation. Author’s photo.

As for the aliens themselves, Van Tassel said they conversed only via telepathy. Their specific purpose for visiting the Earth: to carefully warn humankind that the ever-growing atomic arsenals of the superpowers—the United States and the Soviet Union—posed a direct and catastrophic threat to the future of all life on Earth. Unless the human race changed its ways, he was told, our world would soon be destroyed by our own hands. Galvanized and spurred on by the words of warning and wisdom from his alien visitors, Van Tassel then went out and preached the gospel of E.T. to just about anyone who would listen. And plenty listened: from 1954 onward, Van Tassel elected to hold yearly flying saucer–themed conferences out at Giant Rock, which, at their height in the mid-1950s, attracted audiences in excess of 12,000 people. His claims provoked as much intrigue and attention as they did rolling of eyes. But what really caught the attention of the FBI were Van Tassel’s assertions that Christianity had been borne out of alien visitation—ancient astronauts, as they have come to be known.

On April 17, 1960, Van Tassel gave a lengthy speech at the Phipps Auditorium in Denver, Colorado, having been invited to do so by the local Denver Unidentified Flying Objects Investigative Society. To ensure that the lecture was a resounding success, the society took out advertising time on local radio, which caught the attention of the Denver FBI office, who subsequently directed a special agent to clandestinely attend and report back the details of Van Tassel’s speech. The secret FBI summary of Van Tassel’s presentation began as follows:

The program consisted of a 45 minute movie which included several shots of things purported to be flying saucers, and then a number of interviews with people from all walks of life regarding sightings they had made of such unidentified flying objects. After the movie George W. Van Tassel gave a lecture which was more of a religious-economics lecture than one of unidentified flying objects (FBI, 1960).

It was this “religious economics” aspect of the speech that made J. Edgar Hoover’s finest sit up and take notice. The special agent in attendance noted in a lengthy report prepared two days later, stated:

The major part of his lecture was devoted to explaining the occurrences in the Bible as they related to the space people. He said that this is due to the fact that man, space people, was made by God [sic] and that in the beginning of the world the space people came to the earth and left animals here. These were the prehistoric animals which existed at a body temperature of 105 degrees; however a polar tilt occurred whereby the poles shifted and the tropical climates became covered with ice and vice-versa (Ibid.).

Van Tassel went on to say that alien visitors populated our planet with other species
