UFO sightings around the planet now number in the tens of thousands since the 1940s and there's an overwhelming amount of compelling cases for extraterrestrial life visiting this planet. Oddly enough, I have found that many atheists scoff at the notion of intelligent life visiting and/or residing here on Earth.
One would think that the religious right would be far more inclined to this position (as many are), but I have found that despite the overwhelming evidence and the fact that the topic itself is based in science and reality rather than magic and superstition, that many open-minded people will not even consider the possibility.
(My bold)
Aliens are the "magic and superstition" of our age. Hell, there are even myths resembling that of Prometheus whereby figures have given us "gifts" from the heavens. It's modern-day mythology. People nowadays aren't going to imagine thunder gods with iron hammers. No way! It's aliens now. Notice that shows about "alien visitation" often air in time slots next to shows about psychics, ghosts, demonic possession and other nonsense--because they have the same viewer base. If your bookstore has an "occult" section, its likely you'll find "case studies" of alien visitation there. This shit does not stand up to skeptical scrutiny.
