Do you still think the earth is flat? This is how it sounds when you try to ridicule something that you don't know or probably don't want to know for various reasons, you should read more on the subject with an objective mind.
I think the comparison with dragons is appropriate. Religion and talk about hell and demons was in-vogue at the time so dragons fit in well with that. Why did aliens wait for us to develop advanced technology before manifesting themselves, and why did they stop now that smartphones and google-earth are common-place things?
