Monsignor Stephen Rossetti, a 74-year-old priest and exorcist from the Archdiocese of Washington, was removed from his position after claiming in a May 29 video that many UFO sightings are manifestations of demons. Rossetti, who is also a licensed clinical psychologist, cited biblical references, particularly Ephesians 6:12, to support his views. He warned that demons can disguise themselves as strange figures, including glowing orbs and 'shadow men.' His statements prompted Cardinal Robert McElroy to intervene, stating that such claims could undermine the Church's teachings on demons and exorcism. Following this, Rossetti was dismissed after a 19-year tenure, and the Archdiocese cut ties with the St. Michael Center for Spiritual Renewal. In response, Rossetti expressed sadness over the decision and apologized, reaffirming his commitment to Church authority and teachings.
