The connection between UFOs and religion may not seem obvious, but Diana Walsh Pasulka, a Catholic religious studies scholar, has come to see the two as intertwined. These findings didn’t undermine Pasulka’s religious belief. Pasulka has written a lot about UFOs, including in her recent book, “The Others: UFOs, AI, and the Secret Forces Guiding Human Destiny.” Originally, religion remains the most adaptive framework we possess for understanding and responding to potential nonhuman intelligence, from AI to alleged UFOs.” And as a form of modern religion, belief in the UFO can be studied as such, through scholarly methods.
