Oh you mean it was bullshit when it started but NOW they've got it right?
That was BS, yes. But like I said. Everything that is not a doctrinal teaching on faith and morals is subject to change as times change and as we learn more about the world around us. The Church only claims infallibility on official matters of faith and morals... example being the divinity of Jesus, the immaculate conception, life after death, etc.
Getting back to the topic at hand though.... The Church and mainstream Christianity in general are not at all in conflict with ET life. The first time I heard about there being any conflict was in this *atheist* forum lol. Emphasis on atheist. That should tell you something.
(Oh, and I am speaking in the present, fyi.)
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
