I've no stomach for legalism, and were you to know some of my grey areas - the things I see no Scriptural condemnation for - you may in turn be disgusted with me. However, when it comes to plain Biblical statements and sound doctrine and logic, it's time to follow the word of truth.

I sometimes look around at all the people living in our world, and wonder at their complete detachment from God. The majority, particularly in the Western world, go about their lives with no interest in knowing the God of the Bible.

If you're a Christian believer, how would the apparent confirmation of life from another world affect your faith? Feelings are mixed in this regard, with some being convinced that as the universe is so vast, God has surely created other life-supporting worlds out there. Others see the existence of alien beings as a threat to their faith and to the truth of Scripture, which says nothing about God creating other worlds.
