Home Alone in the Universe?
Peter Jennings's ABC special last night on UFO's made me think of this article I read three years ago in First Things. The program was severely lacking because it didn't seriously raise the questions raised by this article about the sheer unlikehood of intelligent life anywhere.
I tend to think of UFO sightings, if and when legitimate, appearences from other universes, what a friend called "shadows" from other dimensions, or, perhaps like ghosts and haunted houses (again, if and when legit), anomalies and tears in the space-time continuum. I mean, when "an angel of the Lord appeared and said, "Do Not Be Afraid," what could he have been (again, if and when this is legit) but a being primarily residing in some other universe?
Perhaps the real answers lie in the ancient Sumerian texts, which apparently resemble much of Genesis except that the Godhead was an alien race. Some day I'd like to learn more about that.
