UFOs & Why Creationists Shouldn’t Rule Out the Possibility of Aliens Visiting the Earth

As more people evidence a willingness to entertain the idea that aliens might have visited the Earth, creationist organizations like Answers in Genesis, who have hung their hats on a no-aliens position, are scrambling to present their supports with firm reasons why this isn’t possible.
