Prophet Yahweh

Prophet Yahweh, or The Seer of Yahweh, (Ramon Watkins) was an American man who resided in Las Vegas, Nevada, and claimed to have the ability to summon UFOs by using passages from the Bible. He said that he developed this ability after studying the Old Testament in its original Hebrew form and acquiring knowledge related to UFOs from his personal studies.
Biography
The self-proclaimed Prophet Yahweh was born in Memphis, Tennessee. He attended Melrose High School where he was a rising star in both football and basketball. After high school he briefly attended Tuskegee Institute on a basketball scholarship before accepting a football scholarship to Southern Illinois University where he joined the ministry. Prophet Yahweh's first radio ministry occurred in 1978 on WYZE, an Atlanta, Georgia, radio station. In 1981, he began his first cable television program at Viacom. Then in 1996, he began airing a UFO cable TV show in Los Angeles, California. After claiming to have had a dream instructing him to move to Las Vegas, he relocated and, in August 1999, began a cable TV show titled, Prophet Yahweh - Ufologist. Many of his self-proclaimed teachings can now be accessed online via YouTube and his official website.
Controversy
There are those who are openly skeptical and critically detract from the claims. He was denounced as a "false prophet", as evidenced by the nonappearance of UFOs at times and places where he claimed to have summoned them.
