It can't. That's why finding intelligent extraterrestrial life that dies is the only thing I can think of that would actually disprove Christianity. Jesus Christ is our kinsman redeemer. That's why He had to take on a human nature and there is His genealogy back to Adam in Luke. The entire Gospel would unravel with intelligent extraterrestrial life. Of course, I have enough faith to believe this will never happen.

Of course, Wiseman also thinks Christianity and evolution are compatible and considers herself "a scientist who happens to be a Christian." The problem is that she doesn't start with the Bible and Christian doctrine and go to her work as a scientist based on that, but tries to fit what she found out being a "scientist" into the Scriptures. That's like the conservatives who listen to state-run media with little discernment and try to incorporate their "facts" into their "conservatism." Eventually, these forms of conservatism and Christianity bare little resemblance to the real deal. While trying to help their cause, all they end up doing is making their beliefs more palatable for outside observers.

No matter what profession a Christian is, they are a Christian first. One should be a Christian scientist, a Christian doctor, a Christian auto mechanic, etc. We start with the Bible, which is infallible and inerrant, and then go to our work in other areas.

Doesn’t matter. Animals die. That doesn’t disprove anything.

“Extraterrestrials” exist already as angels, both fallen and elect.

God’s Plan for humanity is also linked the appeals trial of Satan. The Gospel message for humans is that while we are born today condemned, we have eternal life through Christ.

Your post is well stated.

“That's like the conservatives who listen to state-run media with little discernment and try to incorporate their “facts” into their “conservatism.”

Or the conservatives or Christians that send their children to public school and then wonder why they walk away from the faith...
