…with the James Web Telescope looking for sources of artificial light to identify potential intelligent life, and the news this week of Perseverance searching for microbial life on Mars it feels like we are getting closer to a major discovery. But what - if anything - would it mean for the religions on Earth if life is proven to exist out there?

    Probably not.

    By the way, to all who are ridiculing religious folk: the big bang theory was theorised by a Catholic priest, and it only strengthened his faith.

      Such a nice man as well. Always surrounded by the altarboys. He would give extra attention to the ones that didn’t have stable home lives and no adult in their life to report to the—i mean look after the kid.

      Hey remember two years ago when the vaccine came out and Christians said it was satanic and had aborted baby parts floating in it? Good times.

        Your first claim is false. Also, teachers are molesting kida disproportionately more than the priests. Should we shut down schools then?

        I don’t remember any Christian said that. Probably because it happened once in some obscure town in southern US. It was also proven that the vaccine came out without proper testing done and had many side effects that was covered up.

        Please remember that everything is not black and white. Try to come to your own conclusions instead of adopting whatever mainstream media tells you to believe.

          What that he took care of altarboys? I am sorry would you rather that he didn’t take care of them?

          Also, teachers are molesting kida disproportionately more than the priests.

          You get one lie and have now used it up.

          A. You have no idea what the real rate is because schools report while your buddies the RCC conceal.

          B. Even if it were true it wouldn’t matter. It isnt the crime it is the coverup.

          C. Is this really all you got? Like you won’t even own up to the criminal acts of your friends and instead try to justify raping children with whataboutism? The standard is good behavior, not other people.

          I don’t remember any Christian said that

          And if you didn’t see it, it didn’t happen.

          Probably because it happened once in some obscure town in southern US.

          Oh now we are speculating. Internet searching broken for you?

          It was also proven that the vaccine came out without proper testing done and had many side effects that was covered up.

          Yeah you are a Christian. I believe it. Don’t worry, I am sure heaven (if it existed which it doesn’t) has all the horse dewormer you can ever want. Certified fetus-free.

          Please remember that everything is not black and white. Try to come to your own conclusions instead of adopting whatever mainstream media tells you to believe.

          Instead I should listen to a shaman in a mandress telling me how crackers are magically turned into his imaginary friend while he collects money used to coverup child rape.

          Conspiracy thinking is heavily associated with being untrustworthy, just a fyi.

            Jesus, the mental gymnastics here… Fine man, you’re right. Have a great day.

              All facts which don’t care about your feelings or magical Jesus crackers.
