Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
As an young adolescent I once asked a brainy college student studying science “Is the so called dust in space a special type? Cosmic dust or something?”
“No, it’s just dust like dust on earth.”
To me that was important because it linked the Bible to the reaches of outer space.
Genesis 2:7
God formed man from the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
Space farts may have life.
Many scientists have posited that life on earth was brought here by comet collisions with earth.
Lots of “should”, “could”, “might”, “if”, “possibly”, in the text....if they catch these dust particles in orbit around earth, how would the know it wasn’t earth dust kicked up by meteor strikes on this planet....?
If I want to speculate...how about this one...
Earth might be already populated by extrasolar life...if the alien lifeforms can shapeshift we would never know unless we look for it. Send me grant money so I can “study” this intriguing possibility. I’m gonna retire one year after I get the money and spend all the money on wine, and women. Kiss off the song.
So could the dust bunnies under my sofa, but that doesn’t mean aliens live under there (although there is that possibility).
