It equals 1 over 10 to the 9th power or .000000001 or 1 millionth or the ratio 1:1,000,000. It's a very very small number, but doesn't even compare to one in a billion trillion. I don't have time to get the exact negative power that would reflect that ridiculous ratio, but you get the point and science itself considers anything that has ratios that terribly remote to be well outside the prospect of possibility. That's what I was getting at. I was more referring to the negative power of ten that equals the ratio. Not worth arguing about at this point I think. [color=#0000FF][quote] Try this then: God created billions and billions of stars and countless planets, most beyond our ability to see with the naked eye and decided ours was the only planet with life?[/quote][/color] Now, I'm not saying there are no other planets out there similar to ours...I'm just saying that we have no credible proof of it, except exaggerated hype that only turns out to be easily misinterpreted and vague wobbles on a distant star's gravitational field. It's all still very theoretical with no real evidence to back up this belief. It's a common misconception to assume that somehow life can spontaneously generate from lifeless matter, simply because time and space and energy or even water are in the equation. Life is incredibly more complex than most people realize, but at any rate...I know these arguments can go on and on, because much of what we're discussing is based in theory. My main point is that I see far more evidence of a plot a little more closer to home and that the Bible predicted this phenomenon would come to pass in the generation just before Christ's Return. I'm not even saying that the anti Christ is definitely going to express himself in this way...I'm just saying that there is a lot of evidence to support this line of research and I think it is something we all should at least be aware of, even if just in the back of our minds.

I should clarify that if aliens did exist, I don't think they're interacting with us on any level. However, if aliens did appear in startrek-type space ships or something, I don't think I would conclude that they're demons just because aliens aren't mentioned in the bible. I guess you could say I'm neutral on the topic; unless an alien-like object appears in the sky tomorrow, the discussion isn't useful. It's just a fun discussion.

Visitors from a realm outside of our planet who are represented as coming from above and who take physical form. The scientific name for angels would be aliens, in our modern secular mindset. The only difference is that, if you believe the Bible, these aliens (angels) which have visited our world many times in history (and whom Paul clearly says are still even among us today) are actually from other dimensions (other heavens) rather than other planets. So, given the history (found throughout hundreds of cultures around the world and often eventually becoming twisted into legends, fables, and mythology) as well as the Biblical precedence (especially vivid in the Days of Noah)...it is much more advisable and credible to assume FIRST that any alien ships that appear on the scene are simply the return of the Nephilim, just as Jesus and Paul and John alluded to (as the Anti-Christ will appear with great lying signs and wonders in the heavens). Matthew 24:21-25 "For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be...For false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. See, I have told you beforehand." 2 Thesallonians 2:9-11 "The coming of the [lawless one] is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders...And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie..." These are just a few isolated versus on this subject, but I'm just rattling off a few of them to make the point. You can do your own research, if you feel so inclined. At the very least, you may want to take note of how much our generation as been inundated with alien awareness (Star Trek, Star Wars, War of the Worlds, Independence Day, V, X-Files, and on and on and on). Given that we know Satan is currently the god of this world (2 Corinthians 4:4) who has preeminent influence over the kingdoms and media outlets of this World...might it be reasonable to assume this generation is being prepared for something? Perhaps a great deception somehow related this whole alien fascination? I don't think these are coincidences that the world systems are so focused on this subject (even the Catholic church has come on board with an open mind to some kind of benevolent hyper evolved alien beings they're awaiting to appear on the scene). It's ridiculous how much hype is being given to this idea. I think our first assumption should be to consider these beings as not just coincidentally appearing in the same era of history that Bible states a great lying wonder from the heavens will appear (as in the times of Noah) and the masses will be overwhelmed (psychologically) by the awe of it all. I think it's more reasonable to assume they are what seems to very much match up with predictions in the Scriptures...rather than beings from other planets that we have no real evidence even exists at all. And even if they did prove they came from some planet we could not see before...they still match the MO of what's described as the watchers (Apocryphal Book of Enoch) and the Nephilim (Genesis) who are predicted to return in fool force at the end of the age (even by most ancient cultures). Do the research. Make yourself aware of what looks to be a very reasonable possibility. That would be my advice. I'm not saying this is 100% how it's going to go down, but I am saying that the evidence is overwhelming in favor of this being the case. It never hurts to make yourself aware of such a potentially significant subject. At the very least, it's a fascinating subject to look into.

Lol. Wow! That made my night. I would recommend you look into the research of Tom Horn, Russ Dizdar, or Steve Quayle...rather than this fellow. Good one BrotherReed.

Yea, that guy!
