I approach this problem of knowledge from the inside as explained by William James and Whitehead. I am willing to listen to anybody for a while, but few are original and authoritative. We have no idea how the soul moves the body, and until we get a handle on this we are no closer to explaining anything we see or imagine.

If we are to use the methods of physics, we can prove that the space aliens cannot come from anywhere but here and they are us if they are anything real.

Some interesting probably useful points.

However, in the above sentences, evidently there are some assumptions that are laughable from the ET's perspective. They have been queried on such by a number of folks and the persistent response is bemusement over our inadequate understanding of reality.

Not so. By many reports from a number of qualified folks.

There are other dimensions to consider.

There are propulsion; space bending etc. sorts of phenomena which we evidently are only in kindergarten about, if that.

I don't think we know much about physics at all.

We see lots of things through the Biblical "glass darkly."

"If we are to use the methods of physics, we can prove that the space aliens cannot come from anywhere but here and they are us if they are anything real."

I would agree that they may indeed come from much closer than some hypothesize, but make no confusion about their identity. Just as God created different beings with volition, humans are not angels and those called 'ETs' exhibit many of the characteristics we associate with spiritual phenomenon.

Compare how those who do not have faith in Christ and are unbelievers attempt to categorize spiritual phenomenon compared with believers and their reports of spiritual experience. There are reasons for everything and our purpose is already established through faith in Christ.

BTW, we are told in Scripture of deceiving spirits. Not all things other than ourselves are benign.
