Jesus's prayer in John which inspires the blog post seems to counsel o one's rather than alienation. Jesus and the father are one and He prays this oneness extends to His disciples and from them to all others.
Perhaps the message of the blog is meant to suggest this oneness as the goal. To be one with the Father, and serve His will? To bring this fellowship into the world. Just as sometimes a step back is needed before seeing the path to walk forward
I am not an alien from another planet, so imagining this fiction does not serve to bring me closer to truthfulness, but I can see how such imaginings might be temporarilyuseful to someone suffering from hateful treatments to provide a thicker skin, and give a brief respite until His grace bolsters our faith to withstand the injustices of the world. It is not a practice I can endorse, but if it is helpful for your path to serve Him, then may it serve you well.
