Professor's alien life 'seed' theory claimed

New evidence from astrobiology "overwhelmingly" supports the view that life was seeded from outside Earth, a scientist has claimed.

This is an incredibly interesting read. I think his theory makes a lot of sense and i would like to believe it.
Take a few minutes and read the article, tell me what you think?
(I hope this isn't a repost)

Well, for starters - it's on BBC = good progress.
Although not "aliens created us", we're getting there slowly.

I agree, this is good progress...and I was glad to see a theory like this gain recognition...I believe he could actually be correct...but I also have a very strong belief that Aliens intervened at one point in human history, and greatly modified our DNA...whether they actually seeded life on this planet in the first place, or if it was seeded here naturally is another question...which this Professor can hopefully answer...

Yes, but I believe this makes more sense, because why would Aliens modify our DNA? A massive experiment? I don't know how likely that would be..

My theory doesn't conflict with the Professors theory. As I said, I have no idea whether life was artificially seeded on Earth, or naturally. All I'm saying is, at one point, and possibly several other occasions, Aliens came into direct contact with the humans on Earth and I'm fairly certain they did experiments which involved modifying our DNA...I'm still examining evidence and developing hypothesis as to what their intentions were and exactly how and why they modified our DNA...and why they chose to come into direct contact with humans in the first place, which I'm certain they did. Basically, you are correct in saying Earth is "a massive experiment"...Earth is an "Alien Ant Farm" in a sense...that's precisely what I believe to be true...

You do know about the ancient astronauts and Annunaki theory, right?

Well yes, Vaguely
I am not that in tune with all the Alien Theories

Thats actually really interesting
Thanks for the response

We sure didn't come from soup.
Francis Crick and a chemist Leslie Orge arrived at such a theory 1973.

Directed Panspermia:

Francis Crick and a chemist Leslie Orgel published a paper in the journal Icarus suggesting that life may have arrived on Earth through a process called 'Directed Panspermia.' 'Directed Panspermia' suggests that life may be distributed by an advanced extraterrestrial civilization. Crick and Orgel argued that DNA encapsulated within small grains could be fired in all directions by such a civilization in order to spread life within the universe.

"It now seems unlikely that extraterrestrial living organisms could have reached the earth either as spores driven by the radiation pressure from another star or as living organisms imbedded in a meteorite. As an alternative to these nineteenth-century mechanisms, we have considered Directed Panspermia, the theory that organisms were deliberately transmitted to the earth by intelligent beings on another planet. We conclude that it is possible that life reached the earth in this way, but that the scientific evidence is inadequate at the present time to say anything about the probability.

Zelong.

Blimey, the Panspermia Theory has been around since Fred Hoyle conceived of it, back in the fifties I think. Professor Wickramasing is a stauch advocate and he believed there was tangible proof of the theory in the events reported worldwide in 2006. This was the Red Rain Event in Kerala, India. The professor and his collegue, Godfrey Lewis caused quite a stir in the academic world and only recently was the truth established.
