According to BBC News, Father Gabriel Funes, the official Vatican astronomer, declared in a recent article that alien life could exist in outer space, and that belief in extraterrestrial life did not contradict belief in God or the teachings of the church.
Catholic sci-fi fans the world over breathed a collective sigh of relief.
In response, Gok Grabbclrttttk of the Mu Arae star system and president of the Fomalhaut League of Intelligent Races, said that God could exist, and the belief in God did not violate any rules he knew of. “However,” he added, “It does seem kind of silly.”
Father Funes also said in his article that some aliens could be free from original sin. President Grabbclrttttk snorted at this statement, saying, “He’s not talking about any aliens I know.”

A revelation! Thanks!
Aliens have the most original sins. Florging, for instance. Sinful, but like nothing you've ever done before.
Florging is not sinful Rob. You have proved you self a prude, a bigot, and a luddite all in once sentence.
Go florg yourself.
Oh wait... you CAN'T! You don't have a grembler!
Florging oneself with a grembler is only second to qoorja with a Nex.
You know, at this point, I'm able to believe in aliens, and maybe even god -- but I need some proof that YOU exist! Come on, pie-man! Bring the blog!
