Maybe NASA should have hired a priest to console everybody over the fact that there is NO other intelligent life in the universe and that we are IT.

I guess many folks here do not remember the old Brookings Study published in 1960.

Here is the link:

Pretty soon NASA will hire “experts” to explain how to build bicycles!

ETs are not necessarily going to be a great deal smarter than us. Nonsensical perhaps, but suppose they were created at the same time we were, but didn't go through a Dark Ages. For whatever reason, they might be technically ahead of us, but not intellectually superior.

I recently read a cool science fiction story about an ET race that blundered upon FTL transportation. They discovered Earth, and assumed they were superior to us. Soon they discovered that our weapons were much more advanced than theirs, our computers were smaller and faster. We also had nuclear warheads, something they had not even considered. Worse yet, humans were masters of warfare and the ETs were amateurs in tactics.

Speculation is fun, but nothing to hang one's hat upon. I like to think we have ETs patrolling around in our space; but, speculations like that don't do anything at all to enrich life.

I’ve referenced it before but there is already a book by the man at the observatory in Arizona (!) which was Vatican built, Vatican funded and the subject of one episode of Ancient Aliens show ——

Excellent point.

I am not egotistical or arrogant enough to assume I understand the Lord or His plans but the universe is an incredibly huge place. From an human perspective, it seems like an awful waste of space if we are the only ones here.

Regardless of that, whatever exists in the universe was created by the Lord God.

End of discussion.

”…suggesting that Lucifer, the light-bringer, was interested in developing humans and God was only interested in holding us back.”

Now where have we heard this before…

“But the serpent said to the woman, "You will not surely die. 5 For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil." - Genesis 3:4-5

Fool us once…

Sounds like a good read. I love science fiction. Any chance you remember the title? I’d like to check that out.

If the space aliens are “woke” then it will be War of the Worlds.
The good news is we win.

If they are.

Whatever they are.

Whoever they claim to be.

Whatever they claim to want.

Their arrival will be a very bad thing for humanity.

The priest is a foreign agent representing the government of the Vatican.

Or perhaps just half of an emissary exchange.
