    Hi Allen:

    I don't know what you are talking - and laughing! - about? From a scientific
    stance, what evidence is their for the existence of these "alien" angles?
    Should we attempt to detect them? By definition, the difference between other
    physical life forms and the superstitious notion of angelic creatures is a
    difference in kind. Our existence implies the former, but the latter is
    unfounded belief.

    From a Christian viewpoint, are we to believe the Creator is alien to Her
    creation? Wasn't Jesus fully human and in fact the "second Adam"? I fear you
    have unquestioned and naive prejudices that are in need of serious unpacking.

    Respectfully

    George A.
