I have done a lot of research on the topics of aliens, UFO's and ancient civilizations. I am also a christian, so with that in mind let me present my explainations and what I believe.
Did you know thre is an odd link between buddhism and christianity? Buddha said "Soon there will be the way." and Jesus said "I am the way." In terms relative to your theory, I would think that Buddhism might have been prototype to christianity.

Buddhism in my mind is a religion created by the seeds of satan to counter act christianity. I do not agree to any effect about anything having to do with Buddhism. I however do not hate someone who worships it, because it is their choice to do as they please. Everyone has that right.
To me personaly, I cant see how anyone could believe that their dead uncle might be a cow reincarnate.

And here is a perfect example of how religion, the FAILED institution that it is, continues to re-invent itself to appeal to the status quo. Until Almighty God Him/Her/Itself puts an end to the secrecy of his/her/its existance, then I will NEVER EVER blindly follow a man made-up theology in his/her/its name.
If God wants my worship then God will have to get off his/her/its lazy ass and ask me for it. Dont be sending humans to do it.
As far as Aliens.... look lets face it... we know they are there. We dont really know what they want or ho many kinds there are or what they have to do with our very existance. Untill then lets not play "make believe" with all the religious crap. I would like to think after half a million years as Homo Sapiens we could finally be done with it all and stop pretending we know there is a God.
Not a flame so please dont take personal.

First of all, I find it impossible to believe that the Earth just happens to be in the perfect place that it is to sustain human life and be the beautiful planet that it is. To believe that a "big bang" just happened is unexceptable.
Things had to be created by God to be the way they are.
Many claim that if someone believes in aliens, then that flushes religion right down the crapper. I say exactly the opposite.
When God created the heaven and the earth, he first created the angels. These angels also were creators, with similar abilitys as gods themeselves. Before the creation of Adam, these angels went about the solar system creating their own life, in the name of God.
They also created life on the planet Earth, in the form of the ancient primates, who scientist consider humankinds ansestors.
When Satan and 1/3 of the angels fell to the Earth, God destroyed the other life forms created by the angels. The 'rebel' angels, or the 'nephilim' are vindictive and want to ruin Gods plan for humanity. They had sexual relations with humans, and these hybrids lived amongst mankind. This is why God destroyed life on the earth (save Noah and his family with the animals) with a great flood. The rebel angels still were free to influence humans and side track them from God by becoming gods in the eyes of man. The ancient god Baal, who was called out as being Satan by Jesus Christ, was the god of the wind and of war. The Egyptians were heavily influenced by gods from the skies, as were the Incas and Mayans, Greeks and Romans. Today we call the demons who parade around in UFO's aliens, and they take this form for 2 diabolical reasons. Number 1, they realize that if people believe in other life from other planets, they are much less likely to believe in God, and that is their number one goal. Number 2, by being known as aliens they can usher in the Anti-Christ durring the End Days as a supreme being from another planet. When the rapture takes place, people will believe it was a mass alien abduction.
The Bible states that in the End Days, the world will be just as it was in Noahs day before the flood. It teaches that in those days, the nephilim walked amongst humans. The demons still carry out this mission today, but in a different and more convincing manner for this generation. Alien abduction.
Its a great deception designed to destroy the belief in God, and that God created humans and the universe. They use the UFO phenomenon as a cover up for what they really are.
So you might ask, why would God create the other planets? Why create all those stars and all that open space for nothing? Genisis says to use the stars for signs. The planets are in the sky so when they align in certain ways we can see this as warnings and messages from God. They were created for us to find and wonder upon, to pay omage to Gods great glory. The constilations were not ment to be used for astrology.
Thank you for reading, input either way would be appreciated.

If you don't believe in a force of initation, then explain your existence. Maybe you should get off your lazy ass and seek God. It's all around you if you observe properly. Please don't refer to God as lazy. You are a self sufficient being with the ability to seek out God. My post had nothing to do with "organized" religion. Of course I take it as a flame, you FLAMED me. I don't worship religion, I understand it... and I live by my existence. I am not a religious man. God is the infinite question of "what came before that?" It is a dual answer... It exists in question form as the answer, but you must accept. It is infinitely unsolvable, yet that is precisely the conclusion.

Our existance IS NOT proof of a God!!
No one has ever been able to proove the existance of a God AND YOU KNOW IT!
So WHY would I activle go out to seek a lie. Yes up to this point it is still a lie untill God makes themself known to all. Not just a few select people in humanity to "spread the word".
We can pretend to know God exists and have faith and all that BS but deep, DEEEP down none of us really know. You will always have that trickle of doubt.
And for the record no I didnt flame you but if you need to believe that, then it is your prerogative .
It is hard not to become angry in the face of ignorance
