I think the search for alien life stems largely from an unbiblical evolutionary mindset, so all the technology in the world won’t matter. To evolutionists the earth is “just another planet” but one where the conditions just happened to be exactly right for life to form and evolve. If there are countless billions of other planets in our galaxy, then surely at least a handful of these worlds have also had the right conditions. Extraterrestrial life is almost inevitable in an evolutionary worldview.
As I said above, the actual discovery of alien life would not destroy my faith, but it would create all kinds of difficult questions for Christians. In the end, based on my understanding of the Bible, I don’t believe they exist. Evolutionists are wrong. Earth isn’t “just another planet.” The Son of God came to this planet and He came as a man, not a Klingon.
There are just too many things that had to be just right for this planet to sustain life for it to be random.
I think your view or tendency of belief is absolutely just as valid as those secular humanists who declare that life other than what we now know must invariably exist no matter what for their own purposes. But I don’t think that we have already exhaustively searched for any hypothetical other life by any means in the decades we have looked, even allowing that we might be actually alone. Decades searching by the means we currently have isn’t determinative by the standard our God given nature allows for. It just isn’t. We don’t yet even really know everything that lives in the bottom of our own seas.
