"...no you don't get it. It's not real."


All Creatures Great, and Small.
What would an alien species make of our theologies or we of theirs.
If they had any.
Another evolutionary tree would cook up unique pathologies.
Imagine if the folks from Planet X took our holy books, and theater literally. Suppose they can only take things literally. Their neural wiring can't make the leap from fact to fantasy.
Literature most of the arts would be profound mysteries to them.

"These beings make different realities,...just like that."
An astounding power!
No amount of our telling them it's just made up bullshit will help.
From the "Odyssey" to religions to commercials.
So there's our old pal from the "Alien" franchise
taking at face value da Lawd.

What an interesting, and likely
Terrifying ride
a relationship with them will be.

"No Gort ya just don't get it! "Look we just made that bullshit up. No that Santa guy Godzilla,...yeah even Batman ain't real."
"Eh you getting this?"
