Not all that new.

TB — 5/14/2008 7:34:39 PM (archived)

I haven't seen a lot of religious figures who had any real trouble with the idea of Creation including other species across the universe. C. S. Lewis wrote an entire trilogy on it, including speculation on what such a place would be like if it had never "fallen" like Earth had.

        Check this word out!... Epistomology....Both science and religion share that word. - Jacob - 5/15/2008 5:51:15 PM

        A statment made without merit or knowledge - Socrates II - 5/15/2008 2:56:05 PM
        
        Then where's the scientific evidence, or proof for SETI's claims? - Jacob - 5/15/2008 5:33:50 PM
        
        If they had proof of ETI, they wouldn't need to search for them, now would they? - Socrates II - 5/15/2008 5:58:20 PM
        
        You're right!! - Jacob - 5/15/2008 8:15:53 PM
