The Cosmic People believe in an alien named Ashtar Sheran.

That's the craziest thing I've seen in days!

The Cosmic People of Light Powers is a Czech cult that's more intense and has a better back story than the whole Matrix trilogy combined. The Cosmic People aren't your typical downer cult. You'll find no leaders with 100 wives who tell followers he must baptize them with his semen. But the Cosmic People do believe in an alien named Ashtar Sheran.

Ashtar has a fleet of 10 million spaceships that orbit the Earth. With that many spaceships, the odds of getting a primo suite when the time comes to leave Earth and head off for a picnic on Venus seem almost guaranteed. Score one for the true believers.

Membership numbers are a bit sketchy with the leader of the group claiming thousands to hundreds of thousands of sympathizers, while "government" sources say a couple hundred people, and hint that all of them may be mentally ill. Nonsense, we say! The Cosmos, as we like to imagine them calling themselves, are just more open to the task of understanding the truth about the infernal saurians chipping our hearts and how, as their website says, "95 percent of our physical bodies are controlled by forces of darkness." Which means many of us only control our wang, hand or some other appendage. The rest is under the control of evil lizard men. Hey, don't act like you didn't suspect this all along.

The website is full of useful information about these lizard men and various other aliens, all cleverly hidden by intense colors and rambling broken English.

It was their frequent images of flaming hearts and the terrifyingly awesome pictures of Nordic aliens which made our research team confident that space is populated by Swedish models who want nothing more than to help us destroy the lizard men, and then make sweet space love.

Here's a video of Ivo Benda who runs the Cosmic People websites (in Russian with English subtitles): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEvXtrBUGFs

Whether or not he's running a cult as would be defined by this site, I don't know. At one point in the interview he shows a photo of a 'Cosmic Person' that was distributed originally by UFO 'contactee' Billy Meier who claimed the image was of an extra-terrestrial called Asket, a cosmonaut from the Dal Universe. In fact, it was a photo taken from a TV screen of singer and dancer Michelle DellaFave of the 'Golddiggers' and the 'Dingaling Sisters' who appeared on the Dean Martin Variety Show from 1969-1973.

This kind of UFO religion can be traced back to H. P. Blavatsky's stories about the Theosophical Masters, via the likes of the I AM Movement of Guy Ballard, the Church Universal and Triumphant of Elizabeth Clare Prophet, and Theosophical-style UFO 'contactees' such as George King and the Aetherius Society and George Adamski, as well as countless channelers and numerous other delusional and/or fraudulent UFO hoaxsters world-wide.

The Cosmic People is just one version of a widespread phenomenon, a generalised New Age-UFO brand of religious fervour, for example:
