Folks, what follows is a very brief synopsis how how I have come to understand this situation:

I am a PK, my father was a Lutheran Pastor in the LCMS denomination. I have attended church very regularly pretty much all of my life. I have served as an Elder, Head Elder, SS teacher, and the whole shebang. I have read through the Bible countless times, and I have used a great deal of printed materials throughout those church activities. I am 61 years old.

About 25 years ago I took an interest in the UFO phenomenon, and read a great deal of material about them. Some of this material comes from the Federal government or is derived from the same. Some of the material is eyewitness ... and there are thousands of credible witnesses weighing in on this stuff, and electronic instrumentation contacts as well. You have you faith in the Bible and in Christ because of the eyewitness testimony; and, there is the same quality of witness material related to this ET/UFO material.

The material concerning ET/UFO is voluminous and detailed. The witnesses come from all social backgrounds, and many are highly credible. Government documents are very technical and detailed. This makes it very clear that such contact is real, and has been with mankind for some time.

Well, I had to integrate that material into my Faith, or simply lose that Faith. If you read what I read, you would have to exactly the same thing. It is entirely possible that you will have to perform this integration in the near future whether you like it or not. Actually, I'd suggest you start your reading and research into this topic. You're going to discover that God's Creation is a great deal bigger and more sophisticated that you can imagine.

People believe the stuff in the book of Mormon and Scientology. Anything is possible.

What exactly should we be looking for? Klaatu or ET?

Just a rhetorical question for you to think about:

What evidence did you read that couldn’t be the result of demonic/satanic deception?

It’s a rhetorical question, so I don’t expect you to waste time replying, and I’m not trying to be snarky.
