 You go over and stand with a group of friends, and they're talking about something, and so you make comments, and then they look at you and say, well, he just said that 10 minutes ago.

And the truth is, from the beginning, this has been part of the Catholic intellectual tradition, the openness to the possibility of non-human intelligence that is not angelic.
