In his Neanderthal Parallax, Sawyer envisions a parallel universe where Neanderthals were not wiped by our ancestors, but prospered to build a civilization based on freedom of thought, constraints of applied genetics, tolerant bisexuality, total surveillance, and lack of any notion of afterlife...In Contact, Sagan provides numerous theological discussions, from pointing out inconsistencies in the two versions of Jesus' family three in the New Testament, to the issue of inclusiveness in regard to the profile of delegates who should represent the—mostly religious—human race before other sentient civilizations.
