I was a bit iffy on alien abduction...but I figure that the fact that they're unproved phenomena is evidnece enough for their existence AND for a government cover-up.

Anything that unproven must be real.

So I guess, based on those criteria, that this ends your objection to belief in God, too? Wink

Why not...but I think since I've already given into the alien abduction thing as the basis of my belief I'm going with Raëlism this time around. Wink
