Director of the Vatican Observatory, Jesuit priest Father Jose Gabriel Funes, a major force in last month's five day astrobiology conference held by the Vatican, says it's okay for Catholics to believe in aliens - and in fact, extraterrestrial organisms are our "brothers" and fit into the plan of creation, posing no problem to Catholic beliefs. Regarding the astrobiology conferece, The Washington Post reported: "Scientists (many of them nonbelievers) are offering presentations on subjects as varied as how life might have begun on Earth; what newly found "extremophile" microbes living in harsh places on our planet might tell us about possible life on others; and how life forms might be detected in our solar system, or how their bio-signatures might be found on and around the many distant exoplanets."One presenter, Professor Paul Davies commented on the religious consequences of discovering intelligent extraterrestrial life: "If you look back at the history of Christian debate on this, it divides into two camps. There are those that believe that it is human destiny to bring salvation to the aliens, and those who believe in multiple incarnations," Davies said the multiple incarnations theory, the idea that multiple examples of Jesus Christ could be found in the universe "is a heresy in Catholicism."This policy of openness toward the possibilities for the existence of extraterrestrial life seems to have taken hold with the Vatican as well as the UN, which has apparently been holding secret meetings regarding the subject since February 2008. Popular NASA space researcher, Richard Hoagland, has publicly come forward to reveal that the October 9, LCROSS 'bombing' mission of the moon, discovered an ancient base at the moon's South Pole. Reviewing the scientific data achieved by NASA's LCROSS mission, Hoagland concluded on the popular late night Coast to Coast AM radio show, that "LCROSS is part of a carefully constructed campaign to prepare the populace for imminent disclosure. The President of the United States will soon announce that scientists have discovered ruins on the moon, he added. Nobody saw the LCROSS debris plume because the probes struck a building which swallowed the effects of the explosion."
