In space, no one can hear you pray!

The answer? Not much really. Some vague references to Ezekiel, some spotty reports of winged disks, the old Merkabah/ Chariot-Throne routine... nothing you haven't seen on the History channel a dozen times if you're into this sort of thing.
To bad really. See what I was hoping for was a bit of that wonderful breed of slash-fiction evangelism that has Noah rounding up dinosaurs on his ark under the watchful eye of saucer-angels, the sex secrets of the Nephilim or failing that at least a really cool scene with Jesus cowboy riding a pure-bred velociraptor while using his 'Messiah-Vision' to shoot down death ray wielding UFO's out of the air. Oh well... better luck next Judgment/X -day I suppose.
The real question to me, however, would be what are space aliens saying about the Bible? Well the reviews just happen to be in... from the sentient cloud clusters of Alpha Centauri to the cephalopodic Dramulons who live off our stray TV signals that have been bombarding the cosmos the last seventy or so years. The results? Well... read for yourselves.

Speaking of the bible, I have to get ready to get to the church, or in this case the Solarium on time, for the marriage of my friends the Lambs.
Until then, get off your knee's God-Boy and keep watching the sky!
