They think that a piece of garbage written by ignorant stinking Arabian desert nomads some 3,000 years ago is the ultimate reference to all human behavior. They can't think of anything else. Their brains are stultified by it. Just like Muslims who take another piece of trash, also written by Arabian desert camel-stinking nomads some 1,400 years ago, for the only reference to modern-day living.
That is how fundamentalists, extremists, ultra-religious barbarians, fanatic dogmatists see the world: From the lens of ignorant illiterate primitive humans whose knowledge of this world was so limited that they resorted to fantasies and myths that were, obviously, custom-tailored to their own self-serving arrogance, vanity, conceit, narcissism, cockiness and self-centerdness. Because of their slavemaster, the human brain, most humans actually believe they are, individually, the center of the universe and that whoever/whatever is behind this universe of ours had them personally in mind. Our brain fools us into believing this shit because it is only concerned about our survival, not the truth.
We are in the 21st century. We no longer are in the 3d or 4th millennium BC. We understand our world much much better than these barbarians of the Arabian desert from thousands of years ago. Yet, billions of morons around the world, brainwashed from childhood into religious bullshit, continue to take these primitive Stone and Bronze Age parchments literally. They can't let go of the illusions, the fabrications and the myths that, though they might have contributed to our survival, are absolute fiction and fables.
Despite the slow advent of reason and science over the past few centuries that has transformed human civilization, we still have barbarian refuseniks who are stuck in the religious mindset of preferring lies to facts, fabrications to evidence, and myths to the truth. Indeed, Trump and his Christian nationalist MAGA morons have resurrected this tendency and granted their own barbarian mindset a sort of respectability.
But human evolution operates like a giant ship at sea. Any U-turn she needs to make will take a very long orbit to complete and a lot of time. Our reliance on evidence-based facts is slowly creeping into our world despite the fierce opposition by conservative cro-magnons and unevolved members of the subspecies homo stultus. Those recalcitrant to evolution and change prefer the false but comfortable safety of believing crap, because they are too stupid and lazy to think hard about difficult questions. Some of them - most MAGA leadership - know they are promoting horseshit to their followers, but that is the only way they have to keep them chained into ignorance and into voting for them.
It's been done to death. Since antiquity, there were philosophers and scientists who understood that religions are a plague to humans, and hard as they tried to convince their contemporaries otherwise, the malevolent conservatives continue to hold sway over an ignorant base that cannot, under any circumstance, comprehend the facts. It was a crime punishable by death for someone, say around the 1300s in Europe, to read and write. The Church saw in learning and knowledge a Satan-devised tool to undermine the Church. They were right, except for the Satan part.
Here is a bimboesque MAGA dimwit explaining to us one Bronze Age biblical bullshit (angels) with another but more modern bullshit (aliens). Neither angels, nor aliens, exist. But this is the human brain's cerebral cortex fooling us into believing this garbage because it rejects the evidence otherwise. As long as numskull conservatives continue to plague humanity with their fossilized ideas, the battle between barbarity and civilization will continue in up and down cycles. But the long term trend is comforting in that it favors logic, reason, and evidence over stupidity, fantasies and myths.

Lauren Boebert Makes Bizarre Biblical Claim About Aliens
Just in time for President Donald Trump’s release of the UFO files, Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert has declared that aliens from outer space are actually “fallen angels,” like Satan.
That means if any intelligent life is found on or from other planets, they are, in Boebert’s mind, hellfire demons.
It’s “always been something in my mind to say, ‘Well, how can we be the only ones?’ Like, God’s not going to stop creating just with us,” she said in a video recorded in a car and first reported by Right Wing Watch.
But she doesn’t believe it’s a good thing because any other intelligent beings in the cosmos besides humans are probably evil.
“The more I look into this, the more I see the Old Testament and what was told to us there, of fallen angels, and Nephilim,” she added excitedly. Nephilim are mysterious beings described in the Bible as powerful giants whose eventual wickedness prompted God to send the Great Flood to purge the Earth of the wicked.
Outer space aliens are not friendly “Marvin the Martian kind of thing,” Boebert emphasized.
This is “in the Bible,” and there’s “nothing that says that fallen angels, that Nephilim just disappeared. And so I believe that this could be an aspect of it,” Boebert added, apparently referring to the released classified UFO files.
“I do believe that this is more spiritual and, if you really want to go there, demonic,” she added.
Boebert’s vision echoes the perspective of Vice President JD Vance, who declared in March that he also believes extraterrestrials in UFOs are actually “demons” rather than visitors from other planets. Bizarrely, he claimed that the “aliens” are part of the “devil’s great trick… to convince people that he never existed.”
“I don’t think they’re aliens, I think they’re demons, but that’s a longer discussion,” he said on the Benny Show podcast.
