Abducted by Aliens?

I am curious to know if any of my readers believe they have been abducted by aliens. According to an article on Slate, there are two main psychological theories of alien abduction experiences: "recovered" false memories, or abnormal brain function interpreted as alien abduction. (Of course, a third theory would be that the experiences are real, but I don't think many scientists believe that.) The article discusses the book Abducted: How People Come to Believe They Were Kidnapped by Aliens, by Susan Clancy. The writer observes,

Clancy doesn't quite grant reality status to aliens, but on the other hand, Abducted devotes much more space to abductees' stories than to her lab results. That's probably at least in part because the stories—both those that the abductees tell and the ones she tells about her research—are much more entertaining than research protocols; this is a book aimed at a general audience. But it's also because narrative is a better vehicle for understanding why people believe what they do than a set of lab results is.

I found this passage thought-provoking. Most great religious texts are narratives, not instruction manuals or scientific studies. People use stories to express their deepest beliefs.
