Touching on what Mike is talking about; I am a Christian, albeit my beliefs don't always go hand in hand with the fundamentalists of Christianity. I've seen many things in my life. I've experienced "experiences" that people just don't talk about without being locked away.
I do know a lot of Christians who believe in Alien life.
When I was 4 years of age, I told mom that "They came and got me.", she thought that I was referring to Angels.
That is an experience that I remember only bits and pieces; much like looking into a broken mirror.
I see the reflections of that past event but they are broken pieces.
My brother & I were talking a couple of years back and we began discussing this.
He is eight years older than I. At the time we slept in the same bedroom.
I remember asking him "Bubba, why did you let them take me?" and he didn't say anything.
We were placed side by side in the same bed.
These years later he remembers more than I do of the event.
I still want to find answers.
Lastly, I will say that later on, probably a year later, I was in a trance like state and walked out of my bedroom (in my undies!) and proceeded to tell my parents goodbye. I wasn't sleep walking. I remember this event.
I remember feeling as though I needed to leave and that I should tell my family goodbye.
Mom & Dad prevented me from opening the front door.
