Thank you. I came here to see if anyone expounded on this. Precisely what you said: the collective concept of “aliens” or “extraterrestrials” is a totally religious construction, sought to explain things, and not rooted in scientific fact. There is no evidence (obviously) that the almond-eyed ‘little-green-men’ image of “extraterrestrials” that people think of it in the slightest based on anything but our own imaginations = Religious construction.

According to him at least. What I actually think happened is that he spent his time planning to take over the new movement and subvert it, and then came up with a story about why he seemed to have changed direction.
He’d have done well in the KGB, but was too competent for the CIA as his plan worked.

Well, he didn’t, actually, as he was speaking Aramaic and the word translated by “world” doesn’t mean the same as it does in English. It’s translated into Greek as “kosmon”, which can be taken to mean the appearance of things or how things are (hence the related word cosmetic, things that change your appearance.)
