pfft, -Z-, are you questioning my belief in aliens? you saying that our star and our planet is the only one in the billions and billions and billions and 100X over again billions of stars out there? (some should fine some humor in my reaction to -Z-'s comment and my slam of organized religions)
i think we'll find other forms of life in our very solar system. scientists examined the south pole and various lakes in antarctica where almost no sunlight reaches and found them teaming with life. now one of our satellites orbiting mars has detected signs of water buried underneath one of its polar caps. so its likely that we will find some early stages of organisms there. Or at least the possibility of them is good.
Now there is also a moon around saturn with lakes and rain and cloud cover much the same as our earth. its just that it is made out of different chemicals and the rain is acid and the air would kill you. but that fact that it has a climate like that makes it a very interesting place, and i would think it would have high probability of some type of organism developing there.
now to this whole god thing. we can all look at some of the many horrible things organized religions have done around the world over time and realize that whether we belief in god or not everyone is entitled to make their own decision on the subject, as each of our faiths is our own.
i think most people today who read the bible and believe in god don't believe that it is a factual book and all these things happened exactly like what was written, but rather believe they were stories put together to teach us or that we can take something from to learn or grow.
anyways, its my opinion that the bible was an early attempt to create a moral set of beliefs, could you call it, moral fiber?
so is god real? for me, its too early to tell. I'll let you know when i reach the limits of my own mortality.
