Veering Off Into Space….
Thursday, May 15th, 2008
Our post yesterday on the Vatican’s astronomer who says its OK to believe in Space Aliens brought us double the normal readership for this little blog.
It also brought us one somewhat cryptic comment.
After following the writer’s advice, I’m taking the unusual step of doing a follow-up to yesterday’s post that may end up having me veer off into space…

This is not the first time the Catholic Church has opened the door to extraterrestrial contact. You need to research Monsignor Corrado Balducci. There’s plenty of stuff about him out there. Even more, if you speak Italian.
It didn’t take but one Google search using the Monsignor’s name to indeed come up with reams of articles, and video of him.
It seems that Monsignor Balducci is a regular fixture on Italian TV where he spouts his E.T. views…
The now retired priest has occupied some very high and important positions in the Vatican—and as you can read here, says extraterrestrial contact is very real.
As Hammers4567, suggested, there is a LOT of material about his pronouncements out there—including a number of video clips—but most of them are in Italian.
However—I did run across one clip—which is a trailer for a DVD about space alien contact.
I’ve included it here because it leads off with a portion of a translated interview with the Monsignor.
Considering how conservative the Catholic Church hierarchy—and the Pope are about things—you’ve got to wonder why they’ve allowed the Monsignor to go on making his claims for what appears to be years…
If he wasn’t telling the truth—or was saying something contrary to what Catholic Hierarchy believed—-there’s no doubt they would have muzzled Monsignor Balducci a long time ago….
So what’s up with this?
Well, as they used to say in the X-Files—the truth is out there.
The question now is, what ELSE is out there?
