[Benp]

I don't think so

Well keep in mind I'm just a couple of years younger than Church....He always ribbed me when we were kids that I didn't actually get to hear the Big Bang like he did...

Yeah I mean how else can you explain liberals? Clearly they aren't from this planet.

Not sure exactly BUT... I think there's only a few months between me and the mouse age wise. We discussed it before but I'm old enough to have forgotten exactly what the difference is.

Just wondered how many here believe there is life beyond Earth.

this is a scientific question and using the word "believe" is an indication of the matter being perceived as a religious one.

if then this is a scientific question, belief is irrelevant. proof is all that matters and so far there is no proof.

Substitute any terminology that makes you happy. It ain't "Science" ya know.

I'll pick this nit.

Every hypothesis is a belief, restated in measurable terms.

For example, Newton's Gravitational Constant has been found, in deep space, to be not-so-constant. So, there is a "belief" that it is constant, with evidence supporting the assertion that it isn't.

Is the speed of light consistent throughout the Universe or do we just believe it to be so based on faith?????

Yes and I think some are disguised as human beings and walking the streets of our cities.

They are a much larger species than humans so they send their juveniles to masquerade as human adults. We have come to know them as liberals.

I like Roy Orbison as much as the next guy, but come'on... in 2063? It's like Neil Armstrong listening to Camp Town Races before setting foot on the moon.

I thought they were from ... Kansas

 

[JettaKnight]

I thought they were from ... Kansas

I thought they always claimed to be from France?

Test tube?!

That sounds like a very naturalist/deist view. Biblical theology would lead us to believe we are more important to the creator than the product of one of many laboratory tests. Would a scientist send his own son to die to lab sample in test tube #12F alive?

You assume that "we" are only on earth... maybe "we" is spread further than one test tube... maybe his son made multiple stops, or maybe we were the only experiment that needed a little help...

also, I think the question was life. Do you believe plants are included in that theology, or other possible life forms... I don't think the discussion was about just beings such as humans. Is algae included for example.

Are you saying that there's, like, a school zone or something in space where it has to slow down?

My worldview encompasses everything - biology (of all life), morality, ethics, theology, psychology, etc.

The concept of an "experiment" points to god that has an impartial and distant attitude to his creation - this is quite contrary to Biblical Christianity.

As to algae on Mars... perhaps, but I doubt it. I'll hold to the view that life is unique to Earth until proven otherwise.

Without a doubt, yes there is other life in the universe.

But seriously.
