you’re welcome
i would further add that the Bible does not prohibit man from going into space... indeed it even appears to envision all of creation as being intended for our use,
Psalms 8:3,6; Deuteronomy 4:19
anyway, I am happy we are exploring space... there’s so much yet to discover and learn about God’s amazing Creation....
And if you read Ham’s article, he doesn’t raise an objection to exploring space, just says that we are wasting money looking for aliens.
Which we are, even if there ARE aliens. If they haven’t found us, they are way behind us and have no value to us, and worse might consider us a threat and pour their existence into destroying us. Even if they are ahead of us, if they have power we don’t have, they will likely destroy us.
We’ve seen what people on this planet who are just like us do to one another when they reach out. Why take the chance of bringing that down on us on a planetwide scale?
