How arrogant can you be to think that your religion that has been drilled into your head over and over is right about an endless universe? How arrogant are you to think that humans are the only intelligent life form in the universe?
There are religions that existed at one point that said aliens not only were not demons but actually helped humans in development. Many of them were curiously enough destroyed and nearly erased forever by christianity. There has been far more demonic stuff done in the name of worshipping god than for any other reason. To be so small minded as to say "theyre not from earth, they must be demons" is ridiculous.
And i do acknowledge that there could be aliens who are not benevolent and want to destroy. but that doesnt make them demons it just makes them malevolent.
Please everybody just try open yourmind and understand that the earth is but a grain of sand on a beach. There is no way we could be the only ones. Enough with the self-absorbed, geocentric view of the universe. Enough with thinking that aliens have the same thought process as humans. Humans are barely of chimps as far as genes and actually as far as thought process goes. Like George Carlin said, were monkeys with automatic weapons and baseball caps.
We gotta stop thinking of what we'd do if aliens invaded earth, because lets face it if aliens invaded earth we be SOL.

No idolatry ? hmmm who is it your avatar is supposed to represent ?
But back a bit, for all i know, if the story and revelation is right, anything that came after jesus is suspicious and could be the lie to be exposed.

I think you're going to need a scriptural reference to back up those sorts of claims.
Seriously; where do Christians get all of this unscriptural garbage? The Bible doesn't say anything directly about space at all.
If you're going to claim to be a Christian, then play by your own rules. Do not make assumptions that anything living outside this planet is automatically satanic or demonic by default, and do not dismiss space as irrelevant, or otherwise condemn people for discussing it or thinking about it.
You have no Biblical support for that position; and as such, your position is, in fact, heretical.
I know I shouldn't attack Christians, and it does cause me to feel guilty when I do so...but really; I am utterly tired of your paranoid, condemnatory, fear and guilt based negative crap. I am completely fed up with it.edit on 8-9-2011 by petrus4 because: (no reason given)

Dude, you are calling alien believers : devil worshippers.
It's not so different than the inquisition.
You already forgot the "don't judge" part, how far will you go to prove your point ?

Liar, no im not quote me where i called them devil worshippers.
They are simply deceived individuals, i didn't say they were intentionally helping to build satan's kingdom.

so by your logic, If you are a christian, space doesn't exist, science doesn't, math doesn't, driving a car is evil, technology is evil. Or is our approach a little tight like a box.
Nah, of course not, you are open minded!!!
I believe in aliens, angels, demons. Live on!

No that's not what i'm saying at all. Technology is good if used correctly. But really the only hands we can trust is of Jesus Christ. I'm all for technology if its used for good. Sure space exist's, but is it intended for us to explore and live in? No i don't think so.
