It would seem to me that anyone who takes seriously the idea (fact) of UFO reality also has to seriously consider the possibility (probability) that Other Intelligences (OI), whether ETs or time travelers or whatever, 1) created humans 2) have watched human development 3) have affected human history a number of times by doing things outside the norm of human ability 4) have given rise to what we call "religious history" In other words, there could be some core truth to Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Islam, Christianity and other more ancient religions, all of which report conversations between humans and "OIs". The "Three Big O's" characterizing God/Creator/..... in human religious stories/mythology (my stories are religious and therefore true, yours are myth...hahahaha) are: 1) Omniscience 2) Omnipresence 3) Omnipotence These O's could well be a legacy of OI/ET contacts with ancient humans who assumed that Creators could 1) "read minds" and knew everything (the OI/ET ability to communicate by what we loosely call telepathy... whatever that is... could explain this), 2) could be anywhere (high speed travel of OIs from one point to another would explain this) 3) the ability of OIs to create "fire", to move heavy objects, to cause great effects (blowing up Sodam and Gomorrah?) could appear as "omnipotence" Does that mean that everyone should "worship" OI/ET's ? I wouldn't recommend it. .... ON the other hand, I wouldn't recommend giving up whatever religion you feel comfortable with because I think that the existence of UFOs qualifies or validates religion. Do we face love, hate or indifference from the OIs? If we knew that we might know whether or not our Creators are causing these sightings (love) or if these UFOs sightings are caused by galactic bystanders (indifference or hate).
