Ping!
Barney Frank has found life on Uranus.
If you just look at Earth, life is seen as coming about several times, and in very different forms. Never wiped out completely, it has come close several times, over the course of four and a half billion years.
But put this in context with a galaxy that is about 12 billion years old. It is not just a matter of enormous distances between the possibility of life, but enormous amounts of time as well.
Add to that cosmic events that even if there was life, are so large that it would sterilize an entire sector of space. Even a world covered by life like ours would be instantly dead, to even the primitive bacteria buried a dozen miles underground in rock. But just as fast, that world would be a pristine place for new life to begin.
One intelligence per spiral galaxy would be my bet.
To be a victory?
Scripture is, indeed, silent about life on other planets.
It just notes that Christ created all that was created and that without Him, there was nothing created without Him.
I was so hoping when we landed on the Moon that we would find beautiful Moon Maidens. We got dust and rocks
When we were sending a camera to Mars, I was keeping my fingers crossed that we would find beautiful amazonian women, or even Green skin Orion Slave girls. We got red dust and red rocks.
I’m now 51, and am loosing hope that in my life time, we will discover anything of value on other planets. And even if we did find Orion slave girls, my wife will not let me keep one.
As of yet, I have seen zero evidence for life existing anywhere in the universe other than on earth. Not saying there is none. Just stating a fact. Also, makes me wonder where DNA on earth came from. I know there are some people who believe it was delivered here from a galaxy far, far away.
No doubt there are literally dozens, if not hundreds, of lichens and bacteria that are here on Earth that would find Mars to be a paradise.
Bump for later Friday reading.
I think it would be very arrogant to assume that, out in all that vast cosmos, there is not even one ET.
God created life on trillions of other planets......He just didn’t tell YOU. Takes a whole lotta hubris to think that Man knows everything God has done....
The lack of finding extraterrestrial life in the pathetically few places we've been able to look does not verify that "God did it", does not disprove evolutionary theory (there is no evolutionary theory of origin).....and the finding of extra-terrestrial life would not prove evolutionary theory or disprove that "God did it."
Just another loon perverting science to fit his needs.
It’s certainly possible. However, I think most of the life that we’ll see on other planets in our cosmic vicinity (within 100 light-years) will be US. As in human settlement of other planets...starting with Mars.
Yes.
