I tend to be a bit of an optimist, so I think I would be kind of excited. I think about Star Trek First Contact and how that moment that we met the Vulcans ushered in a whole new outlook for civilization as a whole. It wasn't necessarily better, just different. Okay, maybe a little easier. I have the series in paperback though I haven't gotten around to reading it yet, but CS Lewis who most know was pretty religions given the themes in The Lion The Witch and the Wardrobe wrote a Sci Fi series that covers some of the questions that the existence of aliens poses for religious people or really anyone who thinks or struggles with those questions. My brother in law was telling me about it. I might have to finally read them.
