Exactly. It depends on how literally people take it. No one now a days takes the Old Testament so literally that they believe in a sky dome. I mean, I'm sure if you google it you'll find some people out there who do, as you'll find people out there for everything. But this is by no means some sort of mainstream, common, Christian belief. And so I object to the notion that ET life is in conflict with modern Christianity.
"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."
