Are We Alone In the Universe? New Analysis Says Maybe

[Gunny]

Anit-macro-evolution is NOT 'pro-religion'. Macro-evolution is supremely faith-based. Thinking macro-evolution is silly is simply 'pro-common sense' When I get the chance to travel through the universe in a space ship, and happen upon ANOTHER space-ship, or..a Buick...or another machine I'll rightly believe it was designed. Much the same with biology. I lack the massive amounts of blind faith and mysticism to believe all our biological systems happened magically, or by blind stupid luck.

Buick? I want a 62 Studebaker to traverse the unknown. Complete with hand-crank windows and AM radio.

What you lack is an education.

Define evolution. You sound like one of those Darwin's Theory of Evolution types. you, the worshiper of junk science.

No one uses Darwin's exact theory anymore. Your point? Here is a kindergarten read on evolution from a pretty prestigious university where people have studied this stuff for decades rather than troll on internet forums trying to be the tough guy.

My science is likely the reason you haven't died of a disease by now and the reason we are communicating in this method.

YOUR science? I didn't know it belonged to you and where is the requirement that believing in creation is disavowing science? I'm pretty sure there was science long before Darwin.

From all appearances, I the Christian, have a FAR more open mind than you, the worshiper of junk science.

Funniest post on DP eVAr!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was watching a show about the universe, creation and all that. It had Steven Hawking talking his views. It actually says that the idea of life forming from some primordial soup of non life is extremely unlikely, that nobody really knows how life on earth started, and that he believes it came in on a comet, or meteor

So, apparently you know something Hawking doesn't?

How the universe, earth and life started is essential in trying to determine if there is other life out there. For example, if you believe a being created everything, then it is very easy to think he created more life in other places, otherwise, why make such a huge universe.

Which also brings up that we will never know how big the universe is, unless there is a God. Science on its own will never travel or view the end of the universe. It is a wall, you keep going until you hit a wall, then nothing exists beyond that. NOTHING. Not space, not vacuum, NOTHING. But science cant get that far.

Yes one idea is that some of the necessary ingredients for life was introduced by meteors. Scientists have found amino acids in meteors. and fyi, the the argument for the beginning of life is quite different than the argument for evolution. One is proven, the other admittedly is not.

You really have no idea what you are talking about. There is no universe wall. You are making all this up from you head. We do have an idea how large the universe is.

SO, complete speciciaztion has been documented and witnessed?
Yes, they are different, neither proven.
FYI, if it came on a meteor, same problem, they have only moved the location of the problem

You really have no idea what you are talking about.

Well then, it should be easy for you to prove me wrong, which you are about to NOT do.

We know how large the universe is? BS. The known universe, maybe. Is there matter out there we havent been able to detect yet? Maybe.
The wall is real, nothing is beyond it. Do you have proof it doesnt exist, or is that just your opinion?

I don't know about being alone in the universe, but the way this thread keeps popping up proves there's life after death.....

My point is simple. One can't post "Jesus" without the God-hating crowd voicing their insecurities on the matter. Ad nauseum. The topic of this thread is self-explanatory, and has nothing to do specifically with religion. For once, it'd be nice if it wasn't turned into just another "I hate God" thread.

I got some gomer neg-repping me because I supposedly am insecure about my religion when in fact, quite the opposite is true. But it's typical of the God-hating crowd's insecurity. I try to keep a conversation on topic, but this dork has to be sure his God-hating message gets through even though it has nothing to do with the topic.

I have no problem with science. In its place. When science presumes to go outside its parameters and try to explain things it cannot, then it's just junk. When people try to misuse science to explain away their own issues in a completely illogical manner, THEN it's just junk. The fact is, people that believe science has all the answers even to the point of defying its own physical laws to explain something, just need an excuse to try and wish away the fact that Man's NOT God and you DO have to answer to a higher power.

If you're right, I won't know. If I'm right, you're fucked. End of story.
