There is the overarching theme of faith and doubt, wanting to believe something is true and having that belief shaken to the core. It reminds me a lot of Signs in that vein. On a purely surface level, one of basic questions of the show is whether aliens exist or not, but it's much more human than that. And most of the episodes deal with things that aren't alien at all. Vampires, exorcism, repressed memory, stigmata, psychic ability, genetic mutants, etc. And again, the over-arching theme of faith and doubt reigns supreme. <BR/><BR/>You should definitely read "Till We Have Faces." It's C.S. Lewis' attempt at retelling the myth of Cupid and Psyche, and it's one of the most beautiful stories ever written. <BR/><BR/>And if you thought Reagan was cute, I'm going to throw up.
