Little Green Fish?

PER ASPERA AD ASTRA

NASA is due to reveal new information relating to the red planet at a much hyped press conference later today.

Many of us fervently hope that NASA will present indisputable evidence of life existing or having existed on Mars.

An announcement of that nature, if it were to come, would enable us to evolve as a species to a stage where we can put much hocus-pocus and xenophobic blood-letting behind us, or so one would hope.

Myths and legends of talking snakes and spirits hiding in gardens, and of people living to be a thousand years old and having privileged access to the mind of the creator of the universe, and other tales promulgated as if they were indisputable facts by the those in  unholy pursuance of an outdated agenda, that is to say  by those determined to create sheep-brained marionettes in their own image, belong only in the history books and in the museums, if they belong anywhere at all.
