As we all know that Bible can be interpreted to mean whatever the believer wants it to mean. The Heaven's Gate cult (infamous mass suicide) used the Bible as an authoritative source. The description of Jesus rising to heaven in a "white light," was, according to HG, actually a space craft. The primitive authors of the text had no frame of reference to identify it as a space craft, so they just described it as a "white light."
There are other UFO cults that believe the Bible actually does mention space creatures.
The believer sees what he wants to see in the sacred text.
A mind is a terrible thing to waste -- don't pollute it with bullshit.
