Extraterrestrial Intelligence and the Catholic Faith

I often wonder about the spiritual implications of extraterrestrial life and intelligence. When I saw this book I was so excited to see there was actual discussion on the subject. While it didn't read exactly how I thought it was going to, it was fascinating nonetheless.    Starting with a general history of extraterrestrial activity through myths and legends, the book leads into the modern-age interpretation of ‘aliens'. Part two of the book discusses more of the spiritual nature and how extraterrestrial life might be interpreted through the church and what it would mean for various religions around the world.    I went in figuring it would read similarly to more science-based extraterrestrial books that cite a lot of facts and witnesses. This was more speculation-based along with various opinions on the subject from religious figures, scientists, and other well-known people throughout history. An interesting read despite how differently it played out. It deepened my interest for sure.
