......floating on an outer arm band of a galaxy which has billions of other "suns"/"stars" with other tiny planets orbiting around them?
IS that what it's all about? Good Creator and Bad powerful spirit over a tiny blue planet floating among millions in only one of millions of other galaxies with life at this tiny pinpoint of time in the universe duking it out over a certain "special" smart mammal's souls? \
Do you ever think there has to be more to it than some mystical primitive explanations to confusing profound questions of existence in the universe?

I love you and your question. Doesnt make much sense that a CREATOR of the Universe would put so much on us. You must like watching Carl Sagan's Cosmos too huh?

I envision it more like a toddler trying to beat up a high schooler. Satan will never win or come close to winning. Nothing will separate His sheep from His true love, not even an evil called satan.
But yes, I do think there is more to this universe than we can comprehend. I relate the universe to our brains, we know quite a bit of what goes on in both, but in comparison to the WHOLE NESS that is the universe (and our wonderful brains) we know so li'l. There is a lot we know, but more we cannot know. Just beyond our reach & understanding. That's ok, that's why we have faith.

Of course there are millions or maybe billions of fallen angels who are followers of Satan that help him. There are also another race of beings called demons. Some believe that these demons are the children of the angels who had children with women on earth in the old testament. Their children became giants. In the great flood all these half-human, half-angel people were all killed but some believe they are the demons that are also helping Satan and terrorizing us today.
I am sure though that this is not the only planet with life on it because the universe is just too big.

As far as God and the devil duking it out, they are not. The devil is raining on earth right now. We are not under his power, but he was allowed to rain on earth for a thousand years to see how many people he could get to turn away from God's majesty. At the end of the thousand years, we will be judged by Jesus and then those who haven't excepted Christ as their savior will become the property of satan. Other than this, my own thoughts are that are we the only beings that God created in this whole galaxy? How do we know if we are the first, last, or only ones he created. We don't, so with that we could easily say that maybe God created other worlds like ours or unlike it. If we were to think that we were the only ones God created it make us out to be either fools or very naive.

Absolutely. That's why I don't beleive in religion. I look through my telescope at the vastness I see, that is not even a glimpse of all that is out there...the nebulas, stars, planets and our Earth, and I know there is a Creator. However, we are probably just one race of many out among the stars, in some distant land. Perhaps we will meet in another dimension after this life.

You can't be given an answer to this, you have to find out for yourself. That, btw, is not a cop out. It's the most honest answer you'll ever get. Try reading these two books to start:
Biological Evolution, Scott Freeman
The Bible (don't take it literally)
Then try to determine if they're really saying anything different.
Then go to a church, then to a university. If you really care about this question, go find out. You're not going to have it answered by me or any others on Yahoo answers. You will find the answer though. Good Luck.

That's a resounding "yes" from me. We have no idea what's going on in the universe at large or on other planes of existence. Maybe after a few more million years of evolution, we'll have a clue. In the meantime, we might as well admit it's a bigger mystery than we know, right?

Generally what is your point, we are too little for God to bother with?
God created us he cares and loves us. God is going to restore things in his time and plan and destroy Satan and wickedness.
Soon this planet in the billions of solar system will be a happy place. No war, no pain just as originally intended.
To God the Creator of everything nothing is too big or too small for God to pay attention to. The universe might seem big and countless to us small humans but to God he has no problem in dealing what you are wondering about.

God allows us to be seperate from Him. It is only the pride of knowing better than God that allows Satan to afflict us. Satan does not "duke it out" with God. Nothing unclean can come before God. And you are very luck to be such a smart mammal.

OH YES!
there are many creations in the universe!
and ive heard at least one testimony which describes an alien races which believes that if humans destroy this planet "THEY" can Move in and declare squatter rights and dominion over the planet.
God declared that WE have dominion over the planet. and through the authority and Legal rights of ownership we can keep it(the planet) if indeed we do no destroy ourselves.
but if we cannot prove righteousness in ownership ITs like saying we cannot OWN it.
