Question: Do you think God is just a metaphoric phrase for alien!? !?
I mean think about it, it's pretty much a given that aliens or perhaps even intelligent beings beyond our own knowledge exist somewhere in the vast cosmos!.

There are hundreds of billions if not trillions of galaxies in the universe
and each galaxy have hundreds of billions of stars within
if each star has its own solar system
and each solar system could have a planet or two!.!.!.

I mean if you could just picture that!. The odds are quite overwhelming and to think we are the only intelligent beings would seem a bit ridiculous!.

Okay, now let's move on to my question!.

It is possible that intelligent beings or aliens visited earth in the past when human culture and civilization was at its dawn!. Try to imagine what they though, how they felt when these things came down from the skies!. These "Gods" probably helped them and when they left, our ancestors kept documents and created stories to pass on to the generations!. As time passes the story would have changed slightly more and more until what we are left with at this day- Religion!.

Or, maybe we are native to earth but were brought here as an experiment!.!.!.
