Would the discovery of aliens who had no concept of religion disprove religion (at least the 'revealed' faiths

Answer 1

Not at all. The Bible is a chronicle of God's interactions with us. It is entirely possible (and I think) probable that God created other worlds with different species on it.

Although, I must add, that I personally believe that the laws of physics that trap us here in our own little shell are a protection of the unfallen planets, from the fallen planets...so I believe that any species that could reach us, would probably be fallen as well, adn thus I'm fairly sure that we would NOT want to meet a fallen species who attained such high tenchonological levels that they could blow us all up 2000 times better than we can blow each other up.

Answer 2

How could one have no religion?

Religion by definition is simply the moral and ethical concepts and foundations that one considers truth through knowledge from life experience, other individuals, generally accepted doctrine, and/or the commands of a supreme authority.

So, if we were even to assume perhaps there was a village or civilization of lost people somewhere in the world that was founded by children who had no concept of the beliefs of their ancestors and not necessarily extra-terrestrials. They would have to have some sort of presuppositions they grow up with based on social and individual understanding.

Religion does not require a god. Atheists are all technically religious because despite their rejection of a supreme authority they hold in regard certain life expectancies and goals. These are often taught as proverbs, such as "to whom much is given, much is expected". Many atheists are materialists believing "more is better" and that great achievement is reflected in great worldly wealth which can be money, material goods, animals, servants, employees, or even family.

Answer 3

I don't think that such a discovery would disprove theism, but it would certainly provide extremely compelling reason to rethink Christian theology.

If it turned out that there were, in fact, other civilizations occupying other planets, then the foundations of Christian thought would be very much in doubt. Undoubtedly there would be massive numbers of self-professing Christians who would come up with some quick and easy rationalization for it... but a theologically sound explanation would be tough to find.

Personally, I'm betting that Earth is the only planet in the Universe with sentient life on it, and so far there's no good evidence to the contrary.

Answer 4

"disprove faith" or "contradict the Bible" or "disprove Christianity"? those are 3 distinctive questions. From a Jewish standpoint, the Bible focuses in on the reports and rules of Israel and is going into element on the courting between the persons and the land of Israel. It mentions India perhaps as quickly as. i do no longer think it mentions China in any respect (even with the actuality that a number of the spices used interior the Temple come from Tibet and China) and it incredibly would not point out the Americas or Australia. Jews have faith the Torah grew to become into given to them for a particular purpose and take with no attention the thought different international locations have their very own rules and courting to God. So -- each and every of the extra so alien worlds and alien civilizations. there is not any reason to no longer think of that, if "sentient lifeforms" exist someplace else, they have their very own set of valid revelations and non secular reports.

Answer 5

Probably, but then again I would have lots of questions for our friendly visitors ( I hope they are friendly and have psychic powers ) Like where are those weapons of Mass destruction anyways? and What is Donald Trumps real hair color? Will the middle class ever come back?

Answer 6

How do you know that Aliens have no concept of religion...have you spoken to an alien?

Answer 7

Possibly. The very nature of Christianity pretty much (though not COMPLETELY) rules out life on other planets.

It wouldn't necessarily dissprove it, though. Such a thing won't ever be found, so I don't know.

Answer 8

I guess so, because then that would mean that god didn't create only the earth. He created other races (species) on other planets. So why then did he choose earth as his central focus??

This is assuming that we are his central focus. We could have been abandoned by god and now he is more concerned with the beings on other planets.

Answer 9

what would their lack of religion have to do with religion on earth?
The revealed faiths on earth have to do with what earth people believe not what we think aliens believe.

Answer 10

What if the aliens don't believe in evolution?
