Vatican Allows Believing in Aliens

Reflection: #015

VATICAN CITY (AP) – The Vatican's leading astronomer says that belief in extraterrestrials does not contradict faith in God. 

The priest José Gabriel Funes, Jesuit director of the Vatican Observatory, says that the vastness of the universe makes it possible that outside Earth, there could be other life forms—even intelligent ones.

In an interview published on Tuesday by the Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano, Funes says that such a belief "does not contradict our faith" because aliens would still be God's creatures. 

The interview was headlined "The Alien Is My Brother." Funes said that excluding the existence of aliens would be like "setting limits" to God's creative freedom.

The Vatican allows us to believe in brothers from other worlds!

To believe in intelligent life throughout the universe—that is what I have always said.

God is in all the universe.

Life can't be locked in a cage. Catholic teaching tells us that God created the universe.

The Earth we live on, and all humans ourselves, are only a part of this creation.

Planet Earth is vital for us, but in the infinite space of the cosmos, there are similar celestial bodies—and therefore, to deny the existence of other beings would be blasphemy.  I do not know how the politics of the various rulers in the many millennia of our existing civilization have dealt with this subject.

There was always contact with other beings. But in our present time, people still deny the existence of extraterrestrials, especially having contact with them here on this planet.  Observations of the global behavior of influential politicians and unusual facts bordering on insanity confirm a denial that is carried out with all power and purposefulness on all levels—be it scientific, religious, or political. In other words, however great the effort, the status quo must be maintained as it is to proceed with a plan.

It is a plan that came into being thousands of years ago.

Everything is planned for the long term because prophecies are insights into such sketches of our future.  It is a plan that must be fulfilled, and if it was recorded in writing and binding in secret societies, it would also be systematically performed.

The argument is as simple as that. But about that, at another time.  The Vatican is, therefore, radically changing its attitude to the question of life outside our planet.

Mr. Giordano Bruno, my friend from a previous life, was burned in Rome because of his knowledge of planetary orbits, and the astronomer Galileo was banned and imprisoned because he said that the planet Earth revolves around the Sun. His often-quoted statement, "And yet it moves," bears witness to his accurate observations.  The Vatican knows that the confirmation of the existence of beings from other worlds is imminent and will happen at any time. We must prepare ourselves for new times if we are not to miss the train.

This is the way it is, and this is how they behave. And that is fine with me. Mistakes must be corrected. To deny the possible existence of other beings in the universe was a mistake. It has no bearing on faith in God.  On the contrary, it can attract more believers if modern science is included in religion. The Vatican has rehabilitated Darwin as well as scientists from earlier centuries. We may need to look for a better explanation for the origin of Jesus and the Holy Trinity.

We take the first step.

Now we are waiting for the next one.
