The First and Last Deception: Aliens, UFOs, AI, and the Return of Eden's Demise Paperback – January 1, 2025

"FEARLESS"—Fr. Chris Alar, "MASTERFUL"—Mark Mallett, "A MUST READ!" —Dr. Michael Sirilla, "HUMANITY NEEDS TO READ THIS BOOK"—Christine Watkins, "CONVINCING" —Jesse RomeroOnly man bears His Image. History's Original Tragedy—The First Deception—began with Eve's neglect of this truth. By her willingness to engage in dialogue with a "Nonhuman Intelligence" (a fallen angel feigning benevolence and assuming the disguise of an incarnate rational creature), the Fall of Man was precipitated. Today, the Last Deception is arising in the same manner.The Devil now seeks to deceive mankind not in the form of a speaking serpent, but rather by employing today's prevailing myth—science fiction—and he is empowered by increasingly sensational but patently false claims masquerading as nonfictional. These contemporary lies—regarding aliens, UFOs, and superintelligent AI—provide still more alluring disguises for him to yet again beguile the human race into entering into dialogue with him, even while failing to discern the cloven hoof. Thus, the Biblically foretold "Strong Delusion" (2 Thessalonians 2) is heralded as men "wander into myths" (2 Timothy 4) and heed "demonic instructions." (2 Timothy 4)But this book will equip you to resist it: to reject The Last Deception“Fearless, thought-provoking, and even appropriately controversial, Daniel O’Connor’s latest book, The First and Last Deception, gives the reader much to ponder on hot-button topics, such as UFOs, aliens, and A.I. As always, his extensive research and academic training in the Catholic faith are on full display.”—Fr. Chris Alar, MIC. Provincial Superior & Director of the Marian Helpers at the National Shrine of the Divine Mercy“A masterful, if not definitive refutation of the alien hypothesis.”— Mark Mallett, Evangelist, Host of Countdown to the Kingdom & The Now Word, and Author of The Final Confrontation “In this excellent volume, Professor O’Connor ... shows how Satan is continuing his ancient deception of the human race today, hidden in plain sight. ... Informative and pragmatic, this book also serves as an extended spiritual meditation on the human condition, salvation history, the enemy’s wiles, and God’s goodness, truth, mercy, and power. A must read!”— Dr. Michael Sirilla, Professor of Systematic and Dogmatic Theology, Franciscan University of Steubenville“Now I feel that humanity needs to read this book and pass it onto others, even to those who could care less about the subject. Why? Because an enemy is lurking behind alien eyes. This enemy is real, but not what people think. We must waste no time now in forming a Catholic fortress against a tsunami of extraterrestrial lies that is advancing, threatening to kill the faith of many.”— Christine Watkins, Author of The Warning & Founder of Queen of Peace Media“Daniel O’Connor convincingly argues that the UFO phenomenon is demonic in origin... the Antichrist could make use of this great falsehood...”—Jesse Romero, Radio Host, Evangelist, & Author of The Devil in the City of Angels: My Encounters With the Diabolical Read more
