Some people just don't get it...

Yes, there are scientific inconsistencies with this cleverly paced, highly entertaining movie. However, the majority of criticisms are based on things WE know; not on things that the aliens may (or may not) know. Maybe the aliens can't stand something chemical in TREATED water. Did anyone consider the fact that fluoride may be the deadly component? Perhaps they've never even SEEN a wooden door before, let alone housing such as ours; and tend not to break doors down because they don't know what lies beyond them. And we have no idea what they may actually want human bodies for ...so what if humans are made out of water, perhaps they extract enzymes or something.
Taking these things into consideration, it's a bit easier to suspend one's disbelief. Plus, I'm an atheist and even I didn't mind the spiritual tie-in to the movie's plot line. After all, spirituality is supposed to have meaning to those who believe it, and this movie merely affirms such.
I found the movie to be alternately frightening and humorous; open your mind and you will too!
