Satan, which deceiveth the whole world.... Revelation 12:9
"Even though science has conclusively shown the incomprehensibly small probability that life could develop anywhere in the universe, let alone on the earth, majorities believe extraterrestrial life exists and life on the earth is not unique. For example, a Huffington Post poll found that 50% of Americans believe in extraterrestrial life, while only 17% do not. That divide is staggering. The same poll found that 38% believe there is intelligent extraterrestrial life, and only 21% do not.
In Germany, the U.K., and some other western countries, the number who believe in the existence of aliens rivals the number who believe in God.
Why do majorities of westerners and pluralities of easterners
believe in silly science fiction characters that can't be seen?
.... simultaneous with the technological revolution of 1900-on was the rapid popularization of the myth of extraterrestrial beings. This myth began in force with H.G. Well's The War of the Worlds and grew exponentially more popular, especially after the 1947 Roswell incident, and an onslaught of science fiction movies, TV shows, comics, and novels with aliens as the subject. Even numerous politicians, ex-presidents, and former astronauts have publicly revealed not only a belief in aliens, but a claim of having seen them or UFOs." US
