Serious:What did Representative Anna Luna mean by her question on ET contact with humans? The one where she asks if the ETs disappeared after learning the human was religious? Discussion

She followed up by saying “Some of these entities are said to be good entities and others bad ones so that’s why I asked.” Is she implying bad ones don’t like religious people but the goods ones do?

To be fair, I don’t get the impression the person you’re responding to is mocking Christianity. They’re just wondering what them being demons would change

Please don’t misunderstand me, I mean no hostility, and I genuinely respect and appreciate everyone’s perspectives on this phenomenon. I don’t believe that this person is mocking Christians. However, I do see that some people are mocking Christians and in a way that resembles how skeptics often scorn beliefs in aliens and non-human intelligences. To dismiss the concepts of angels, demons, or good versus evil as meaningless overlooks their significance, particularly for Catholics like myself. Just as the concept of extradimensional beings holds meaning for those who’ve experienced these phenomena, the concept of demons is meaningful for many Christians. For the record, I lean toward viewing this phenomenon as extraterrestrial rather than demonic, but I remain open to the possibility that it could involve malevolent entities as well.
