I remember signing on to my email about a year or so again and on AOL there was a "cover story" that scientist may perhaps have found a planet with the conditions for life. My curiosity got me so I clicked the link and there was this long story about so many thousands or hundreds of thousands of light years away (can't remember, but it was so far away that it would take over 150 years of straight space travel at the 186,000 miles per second to get there). Anyway as I continued reading through the article it defined life, not as intelligent life, but that the planet may possibly have the conditions for bacteria to exists, which the article claimed would be less complex that "shower mold". I was sitting there thinking "really? They're excited about that? That's the best they can do, maybe possibly shower millions and millions of miles away?

And yet with some would actually consider that life came on earth a viable alternative to creation by an all wise God? Really how does someone respond to that? Its like trying to talk rationally to someone who brain is fried on drugs. A person like that has willingly suppressed the truth and bought into self delusion. Professing themselves to be wise they have become fools. Such is the "scientific community" who reject all things relating to God. They are considered the "wise" of the day as the ancient Greek philosophers were the "wise" of their day, but history will reveal their foolishness to all, as will eternity, when all these things will be laid bare for all to see and understand.
The question of aliens and other origins speculation only has merit while we live this life, in death it will be obvious to all that in fact there is a God, and in fact we are accountable to Him. So what if some do not believe, does their unbelief change the truth of God?

Its a useless theory.
