If we find life on other planets, how does that affect the world's religions?

Didn't you hear ... humans are actually clones of aliens

 

[kuulani]

...and wouldn't we be the aliens to the aliens who may have their own religious beliefs different from ours

if god made the earth and all its attributed crap in a week then he's had bags of time to sit about making all kinds of funky stuff elsewhere. in green. with little ray guns.

i had thought the bible said that humans were alone except for angels and god?

And angels are not aliens to us?

not necessarily. they are just beings but i guess in a sense they are.

For Christians:

Do aliens have original sin? Did Christ go to multiple planets and die multiple times? Or perhaps there are multiple Christs? Do aliens go to heaven? If we meet aliens, should we spread the gospel to them?

Just curious. Seriously. I think this topic is fascinating.

He made it to Narnia, so why not other places?


Huh? What's that?


Narnia ain't real..? But... Aslan..? No..?

It would have a huge affect. It decidedly throws a wrench into the entire religious process. On the other hand, religious leaders would twist it to their advantage.

Nope. It doesn't prove, or disprove, anything. The 'religious process', as you put it, only deals with people because those religions were about people. I also believe that the bible never says that God didn't create anything after this, or before this, so why is that such a huge chasm for ya'?
