I've actually heard religious people talk about the idea of aliens.

Essentially their conclusion was that the bible doesn't rule out aliens because it doesn't say God didn't make other planets with life.

I’m sure I read recently that the Vatican is not against the idea

The Vatican is pretty pro science. It's a lot of the other Christian faiths that are overly strict with their interpretation of the bible.

Yeah, nothing in the Bible says there can’t be aliens. It doesn’t really change anything. For the Christians who deny the possibility of aliens, they probably just have a superiority complex, as do many who claim to know more than they do or who claim their theories on origin of life are definitive. Nothing new with humanity.
