Laudate_Dominum Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 [quote name='Chris Zewe' date='Sep 12 2004, 03:20 PM'] But your very own Bible states that God created the universe and man and such. Not a thing about ETs. Thanks. [/quote] Some phringe groups try to claim that the Bible supports the existence of extra-terrestrials. I'm not suggesting that they're right, but it's not an absolute impossibility. Also the Bible affirms the existence of other creatures created by God which are neither human nor animal. For example angels, archangels, principalities, thrones, dominations, cherubim, seraphim, etc.. There are material creatures as well. The point is that it's conceivable that there are buggers on other planets. However, despite Carl Sagan and others, it seems to me that the chances of life on other planets, especially sentient life, is next to none. This is a logical conclusion when one examines the evidence and statistical probability and all of that based on current theories of how life emerged on earth. But even if a bunch of space ships show up tomorrow and take over the world, that would not necessarily invalidate Christianity, though I suppose many people would take it that way. I think it would be hilarious if some aliens showed up one day who had a religion with prophetic texts and things that are fulfilled in Christ and they came to earth to be Baptized. That would mess up the atheists. LOL I'm just playing around. peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MorphRC Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 There are aliens, other life forms. Its a statistical truth. I have almost no faith, so nothing to "shake" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
