Now the theologians are getting involved too!
German professor Dessauer of Bonn advises readers of "Wort und Wahrheit" ["The Word and the Truth"]: "Whatever happens, do not shoot at the pilots of flying saucers."
On the contrary, he says we must "approach planetary visitors in a spirit of charity." They deserve it all the more because, for the Christian philosopher, they are not marked by original sin.
That's true! Genesis didn’t account for that! Unless, as the professor thinks possible - though not certain - an angel warned them of the salvation brought to Earth by the Messiah?
We sincerely hope so. Because it would be disheartening if He had to start all over again on another planet!
