not only does it seem irrational and ignorant it is also selfish to think were the only living thing out there no one human being can count the stars and to think we are the only life revolving around a much smaller star is ridiculous maybe the "unbelievers" will need some sort of apocalyptic event to get them stirred up

I, personally, am a strong believe in extraterrestrials. We have billions of stars in the world and so many planets it seems irrational even ignorant to state that we are the only life forms in the whole world. I believe the ancient peoples knew things beyond our wildest dreams and only stated some of what they knew into each book. I truly believe it is God's will that we will one day travel the universe and meet with other intelligent beings.

You do not need to perform certain rituals. You do not need to be saved. You need to break the spell. You need to realize that you are already saved; you have just been under the spell of a trauma-based mind control program called 'organized religion'.

As clarification, the Bible doesn't confirm many physical worlds: only one. It also confirms a spiritual or non-physical realm with many things in it, i.e. "principalities and powers". But this doesn't necessarily mean "many, many worlds".

"You will not surely die," the serpent said to the woman. "For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil."
When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.
But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower that the men were building.
The LORD said, "If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other."

Give it another 5000 years and they'll be laughing at these books.
True story.

All of these religions talk about a god that desires worship and adherence to a certain belief system. I think that anyone who gives you a belief system is your enemy. Spirituality is attained as a personal journey. Fear-based religions point to authoritarian dictator gods, advanced creatures or pure fantasy, but not the Most High God, possibly in charge of large quadrants of space. YHWH, Allah, Ahura Mazda, Zeus-Jupiter, Lucifer-Saturn-Satan, Baal, Moloch, Anu, etc. all fall into this category. Sometimes they seem loving, sometimes they act like immature tyrants. They use classic trauma-based mind control as a rule to rule. It is my contention that there is a Supreme Presence; and that Presence, that Consciousness... is Love. Words in an old book, are by their very nature inexact; and so they could not possibly represent the Eternal Consciousness of Love. But it can be found in Your Heart. If you follow someone or something less, may I suggest that you are a child of a lesser god. You do not need to perform certain rituals. You do not need to be saved. You need to break the spell. You need to realize that you are already saved; you have just been under the spell of a trauma-based mind control program called 'organized religion'.

Good work...
I have no problem with a universe teaming with created life...
...including sentient beings...
...to believe other would be to place some artificial limit on God's creativity.
I just don't think that any sentient life-form is able to visit us here, right now...
...because we are a 'silent planet' sealed off like a cancer...
...even the most optimistic atheist can see we have trouble here...
...earth is a world in rebellion...
...and we are currently quarantined until the controversy is ended.
If then sentient beings representing themselves as ET arrive here...
...they will not be 'good guys' from other planets...
...but rebellious entities masquerading as ET to decieve us yet again.

You speak like a religious leader -- limiting "God's creativity", Did you ever think that God setup the "world in rebellion". Good things come from rebellion.
