I feel that if God gave the Bible to us to read, learn and follow, He would of done the same for other life forms. I can't stop myself from getting a little upset when I hear that people think we are the only species created by God. What type of ego do we have to believe that in this vast space God just created us. That is very small thinking, don't you think? I am a Christian, I believe in God and His Son Jesus. I will not stop believing that there are other lives out there somewhere, and those lives are being touched by God, just like we are.

1.) TRUE that humans religions, and the Bible have been around less than 1 million years. FALSE: God been around for more than 1 million years
2.) TRUE. Many planets, not stars, can support life but EARTH is the only one that we know of that does. Where did you get this answer from that the universe been around 99.99% of the time. WHAT. God been around 100% of the time. In the beginning created the heavens and the earth. That mean the entire universe. Don't forget about the angels when they were created and much more that GOD has created. I don't think God made a Bible for angels. Nor the dinosaurs. Why because there is no need. They have no soul. The one who needs His word is us. We have a choice. We act on feelings, heart, life, breath, mind, and made by His Image. Ever since in the garden. Its us with the souls not them. Other animals help us on this Earth. We have fossil fuel from dinosaurs, and food from animals. Clothes, material, cures. Things are on this Earth help us survive. All we have to do is live and obey God. God just didn't make Earth for he knew we would make it to space. It like a famous artist drawing a dot. For what he should draw something much more. God knows what He is doing do we know what we are doing.
What else can create something so in line and so balanced. It must be God.

Most religious nuts believe that the Earth is only about 6,000 years old.
Because the people that wrote bible were ignorant and guessed that the Earth had only been around for a few thousand years.
No life form (on Earth) previous to humans was smart enough to e afraid of what they didn't know, so religion wasn't created until we came along.
God didn't exist yet, so he didn't have to write a novel, or cause crazies to have bad dreams so that they would write it for him (he's lazy like that).

You sure did a lot of writing to explain yourself. It is almost a build-up to insult someone while asking a question, but I would never accuse you of that. That wouldn't be Christ-like!
Yes, you suggested that God wrote the Bible. He inspired the Bible through the handwriting of Adam, Moses, Noah, Abraham, Isaiah, Saul, then Paul, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, etc.
God's word is the last word and the rule of life for intelligent life on earth. Unintelligent life on earth cannot read, nor understand, so he gave us authority over them from the very beginning.
Genesis 1
26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, [b] and over all the creatures that move along the ground."
27 So God created man in his own image,
in the image of God he created him;
male and female he created them.
28 God blessed them and said to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and over every living creature that moves on the ground."
In case you have doubts about who is was talking to ("us" reference) he was creating with the Holy Spirit.
Sorry that I do not have physical proof like a photograph or a tape recording of God and the Holy Spirit. Cameras and tape recorders were not invented yet. After all, he just made man a couple of minutes ago in this scripture.

God didn't write the Bible; men did. Men that were supposedly inspired by God. If God exist then the one thing that he did write is the universe. It's all around us, there for us to read and try to understand but some people spend too much time with their nose stuck in the Bible to realize it.

He gave us the Bible, and the evidence of His creation to display His power. I don't believe anyone knows for sure how old the universe and Earth is, but it doesn't matter to me, because God still created it all. IF he created other life made in His image on another planet then I'm sure He is communicating to them as He is communicating to us. I am inclined to believe that there is no other life in the universe but us.

if we talk about islam,,, islam says that only jinns and humans have free wills. and quran says that there are other creations of Allah ,, of which we dont know of,, and there are other 6 earths as well... so carry on your research,, and may be one day you will find that one, if Allah wishes, let me remind you that there is not a single verse of quran which have been proved wrong by scientific facts.
Al-Quran ( 35:24) There is not a nation or a tribe to whom we have not sent a warner or a guide
=========================
=================================
Look for the video "Qur'an And Bible In The Light Of Science Vs Campbell"... a debate between Dr. Zakir Naik and Dr. William Campbell......very interesting debate!!

=============================
You can read numerous scientific facts mentioned in the Quran here in this small booklet by Dr.Zakir Naik.

scientis SUGGEST the PROBABILITY of life forms on other planets, but has it been proven? that is of their opinion and not fact. come on i havent seen green or red men around only at the theatre.have you actually seen life from other planets besides the movies. whereas we are in existence and you do see yourself. so far as the bible, that was written through experiences of prophets, inspired by, led by, the holy spirit, REAL LIFE, you have fact and not science FICTION. there needs to be not a bible written for what man imagines. that is could a novel, or book. people continue to try and justify their wrongs so that they are not accountable for them so they can continue to sin and don't have to be, or think that they will be punished for them so they come up with all this philosophy on how come,why, and downing anothers beliefs, or even questioning it, just to do wrong. when God instills into us right and wrong, you choose. some questions are just to see how ignorant one can be use your mind and don't show your ignorance to most.no i am not saying a question or asking a question is ignorant i am saying that people try and test once comprehensive level on the existence of themselves which is obviously a mystery to most but when you are in right Devine it is no mystery. the only thing is to learn to live with the truth and love others and try to show with example o your life instead of forcing your opinion, on how to live, and the rewards of it.

First go study some science.
The factors for the chance for life on another planet works out to a one in 100 thousand trillion, or you have a better chance of being struck by lighting, and bitten by a great white shark, while in a coal mine in the middle of the Sarah desert during a blue moon.

God wrote the Bible for human and probably wrote similar book of faith for the others.
Bible needs not only the Creator, but also participation by the creation in process of writing.
