A strong piece in the New Yorker about the complete lack of even a single unambiguous photograph of an alien spaceship. The entire "alien" idea has always been a 1940s sci-fi mythology imposed on bad data and ambiguity, just as the FBI concluded in 1948.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
