One of the biggest effects alien
contact would have on humanity is religious. Many believe that
discovering alien life would throw some religions into chaos, with
people questioning their origins and wondering if the aliens
themselves might have created them. This would also lead to new
religions forming, with people worshiping the aliens. We've already
seen a number of cults, including Scientologists and Raelists, who
believe aliens are a form of angel or supernatural being deserving of
worship, so imagine what would happen if alien contact was
established! However, to those that think the existence of alien life
challenges belief in God, the question remains: who, then, created
the aliens?
