How does your interest in Star Wars tie into your faith, would you believe in extraterrestrial life?

I believe extra-terrestrial life is possible, but so far I don't believe it exists. If intelligent extra-terrestrial life is discovered in the future, that could have an impact on my religious beliefs, but it depends. If we (humans) were to find that some of them worship a god similar to the Christian god, then that would definitely reinforce my beliefs. The chances of sentient life existing elsewhere in our universe are incredibly low, so the discovery of such life might serve to increase my faith, or if there was no indication of a belief in a similar or identical God then it would have a serious negative impact on my faith.

As to my interest in Star Wars, I don't think it conflicts with my faith because I know it is fiction. Extra-terrestrial life would not itself harm my faith, so I have no problem with fictional aliens, etc.
