Did God drive a flying saucer?
Another civilization advanced only 1000 or 10,000 years ahead of us may appear 'magical'. Even 100 years ago no one could imagine cell phones communicating thousands of miles in an instant, computer networks, jumbo jets travelling 500 miles an hour etc.
Maybe ancient peoples thought there were several 'Gods'. makes you wonder...

Wagonwheels spinning with lights on the side.
And an altar inside.
And of course Ezekiel arose into the heavens in a fiery chariot with the face of a lion.
The most important thing to remember is to carefully avoid letting facts interfere with archaic religious beliefs.
