"Religion is between Man and God, as a way of bringing Man closer to God."

Religion is between man and himself. Religion is man's invention to deflect God's laws. It places an impenitrable wall between man and God. If we wish to be closer to God, there is only one way: The Gospel of Jesus Christ. It eliminates the need for religion.

Agreed, but still, it makes no difference to my point. The existence or non-existence of life on Mars is as irrelevant to the Gospel as it is to any other religion/Spiritual belief system I can think of. Science is about the physical world. Religion is about the Soul. Totally different things.
