He wrote the book "The Moon: The Key to the Bible" in 1968, in which he claimed the word "Elohim" mentioned in the Hebrew Genesis of the Bible, which is usually translated as God, should in fact be translated in the plural as "Gods" because the singular of the word ElohimisEloah.[3] He claimed that the "Gods" were actually space travelers (analien race of humanoids). Sendy believed that Genesis was factual history of ancient astronauts colonizing earth who became "angels in human memory". The book contains many ideas later found in the UFO religion Raëlism.[4][5][6]

In his 1969 book Those Gods who made Heaven and Earth, Sendy claimed that space travelers 23,500 years ago arrived in the Solar System in a large hollow sphere and seeded humanity.
