What drives us to be good? How do we even know how to be good? Philosophers and theologians have dealt with such questions for millennia, but Dan Barker thinks the answers are not so complicated.

Dr. Daniel Fry, an engineer in charge of the installation of instruments for missile control and guidance at White Sands Proving Ground near Las Cruces, New Mexico, was whisked away on an 8,000-mile flying saucer ride from White Sands to New York City and back. Thus begins his instruction by the illustrious Venusian thinker, Commander Valiant Thor, who wanted everyone on Earth to understand the truth about our existence and how we can spiritually profit from the beneficence of extraterrestrial contact.
