"I think it is mans attempt to find “life” so they can claim there is no God."

I make no excuses for being both a scientist and a creationist, but I consider that to be one of the most childish, stupid, and just flat WRONG statements I have ever read. Only a fundamentalist simpleton would see a threat to his/her belief in God in the simple unveiling of yet another of His works of creation.

Then why has everything turned into “the search for life”?
Why are we not settled in on moon bases?

You are quick to call others names. And I may be simple however I believe Satan is behind the “search for life” just like he is behind all things in this world. He is the prince of the air. When NASA announces they have found life, they can then say God is not involved, We have proved that life is abundant in the universe and many more will be decieved by the lies of the devil.

Don't bother. I got up this morning as proud of the USA as I've ever been, because we did something damned amazing, something that no other country can do, and did it perfectly. But when I went out looking for the latest info from Mars, I found that the media hardly cares and that the majority of people posting on the few MSM sites covering it are upset because the money was spent on science and not on buying them a new car, or spicing up their gubmint free bennie packages, or for saving the polar bears.

Then I come to FR and find that folks here think that the Mars landing makes Jesus cry. Could we possibly play into the enemy's strawman argument-that we are brainless fanatical hicks-any better than that?

We keep saying that we want America back, but this generation doesn't deserve America.

Thank you so much for sharing your insights, dear brother in Christ!

I'm very impressed with the advances in space exploration and my faith is not threatened by anything they have found or might find.

Indeed, I only get upset when scientists try to do philosophy or politics under the color of science - e.g. Dawkins, Pinker, Singer and Lewontin.
