I agree that, for the most part, nothing would change immedietly.
Maybe some of you strict fundamentalists would have to back off a bit from a strict interpretation of the Bible, but even with a "Space Oddessey" type encounter, faith is a phenomenon that is so ingrained into the psyche that the mind weaves around any indirect evidence. For example, any other civilization could be angels or devils - take your pick....
But future generations would be the ones to start to see the light...
