Are UFOs and aliens real?

  • Why are pastors talking about UFOs?

The docket's big question, framed by 'why are the pastors talking about the UFOs?' -- societal distrust among older Christians and conspiracy fears; ancient evidence (hieroglyphics, cave drawings, pyramids, Roman historians, the Anunnaki); a biblical angle ('Ezekiel looked in the sky and saw some crazy stuff'); whether to preach it on a Sunday morning. Theological positions: one host leans against aliens -- 'all creation groans waiting for the return of Christ, so why would someone on Mars give a rip' (Romans 8); another is 'generally the reasonable party, but I think aliens are probably likely'; the universe's vastness and God's control. Comedy: aliens with 'three creepy long fingers' and slow-moving eyelids; 'the Mars bible is really short'; 'what if we're one of 10,000,000 worlds and we're the only ones who fell?' -- and staying out of the trees.
