It's sad to see what these New Orleans families are going through and to see what is happening to the city. It is sad to see that many of the poorer families in New Orleans that are struggling to survive and am sorry for all of those families that lost their homes and now must find a new home and rebuild their life ( Read more... )

Thanks for updating. lol I don't know the answer to that question. I do know that if it weren't for the way a water molecule and hydrogen bonds were set up that earth would not be able to sustain life. Maybe that has something to do with it? I can't form a connection, maybe someone else can. Whatever.

I think that there are more habitable planets in the universe. There are billions of galaxies and countless planets in each galaxy. It's pretty damn arrogant to assume that we're the only intelligent life in the Universe.

A lot of Christians (not all, I know) argue that if God had created more life in the Universe, we would have been told. In my opinion, that's pretty arrogant as well. Why should we, subservient beings that we are, be informed of the intricacies of an all-knowing God's plan?

I think what it all comes down to is the arrogance of mankind.

Global Warming is not causing the Hurricanes to become stronger, according to NOAA.

unless proven otherwise, I will stick to what NOAA says.

Mark, God did create the universe and its expanses. There is undoubtedly other living creatures existing on some other planets. But God made us in His form, we are the only beings to have been made in His form. He has probably made many other aliens and such but it is only us he has given His love and chance of life eternal.

How can you say that? How can you say that we are the only ones created in God's image?

Not only is it arrogant to believe that we are the only ones created in God's image, but also that if we weren't, that we would be told about it! Should an all-powerful God have to tell us if there were others like us? Why should He have to answer to us?

I believe that there is intelligent life on other planets. If you insist upon adhering to a purely Biblical point of view in this discussion, then I suppose I would say that I believe if God created other sentient beings than they are entitled to the same love that we are. Just because it wasn't laid out for us in the Bible, doesn't mean that God didn't have a little fun outside our tiny galaxy.

In my opinion, it's none of our business what an all-powerful God does with his free time. We're lucky He told us as much as He did.
