I'm not sure you would like the morals because of the fact it teaches strength through religion.
I'll still end up reading it, but I'll probably end up not taking much notice of anything trying to be religious.
And no, I haven't read any of the Bible yet...though I'm still meaning to read Revelations as you told me to do.
Even though it is going to be a short story carry it on as if it were a full-length book. In "Book of Closed Doors" could be an extract or something that is like a short story within the whole of "Of All my Friends". Maybe Eadi's atempted suicide up to the bit (I'm only guessing that this is going to happen) when she and Jason get together (does that end up happening?).
As for Scientology and Aliens...I'm not a great one for Aliens either, but for Science I'm a sucker...
