Some people also believe that we are in the End Times. Many people have bizarre beliefs about what is to occur. I've heard an interesting theory that the Antichrist will have to explain to all people remaining on Earth after the rapture what happened to everyone. That explanation will be that aliens took them.

So, I have mixed feelings about aliens.
