Any claim counts, even if people claim it was "obviously" intended to be a joke.

Wait a second – isn't this already true because she's a Christian?

@BrunoParga Oh, hmm, what denomination of Christianity is she? Has she claimed that the bible is literally true?

@IsaacKing I can check that, and I think she's more likely to be like that than the average Christian, but I don't know if that really matters.

Doesn't Christianity require the beliefs that God (the Father and/or the Holy Ghost, at least) are not human and that they have contacted humanity? Would Christians claim that God is not intelligent?

@IsaacKing huh, it's surprisingly hard to find out MTG's current denomination, after the left Catholicism and proclaimed herself a "Christian nationalist".

In any case, I would expect a poll of Christians to produce the following results:

  • strong (>80%) agreement that God is intelligent;

  • near-universal (>90%) agreement that God has contacted humanity;

  • strong agreement that at least one of the Father and/or the Holy Ghost is not human;

  • among those who agree with all three things, a majority would disagree that "a nonhuman intelligence has contacted humanity".

Which means, I'm making a strong prediction that Christians as a group would be logically inconsistent in this question.

predicts YES

@BrunoParga Hmm, ok. Well I'm only going to resolve based on an explicit claim.

(I didn't consider god when making this market, but I said angels would count below, so I want to stick to that.)

Do angels/demons count, or does it have to specifically be aliens?

@Marnix I guess those would count

predicts YES

@IsaacKing I more meant like specifically interdimensional ones, since she's gone on Infowars from time to time (but I think she hasn't lately)
