My thought is that god created the earth the creatures on it but what if someone did discover life on a distant planet. Does that contradict Christian teachings?

Technically no, it doesn't say anywhere in the bible that we are the only life god created, christians mostly just assume we are the center of the universe.

Not necessarily, the Bible only focuses on Earth and it's relation to the Heavens (space,etc.) but not the rest of the Universe as far as any other life is concerned. Funny how the Bible never mentions human life existing anywhere else since God is supposed to be Omnipotent. Perhaps, if you believe in this sort of thing, life on other planets was also created by God and some of the more intelligent lifeforms out there just may have the Bible in some form just for them, as well.
Lots of loop-holes and contradictions make arguments like these really convenient for the ultra-hardcore Christians to make their case in their favor.

No, it doesn't disprove Christianity. I've heard there are some forms of bacteria which can escape the earth's gravity and survive the journey through space to Mars, so discovery of bacteria on Mars or elsewhere in the Solar system doesn't necessarily mean that life arose there independent of life on earth.

Wouldn't God Himself be Extra--terrestrial?

Actually, the word says that God created everything out of nothing. So, life on another planet would be His creation. However, I don't think that the bible says anything about there being life elsewhere.

teach it in theory. yet no longer interior the main significant factors of the garbage the church empire has been pushing ever in view that Paul had his (admitted) hallucination. Edit: i'm sorry, i assumed you have been touching on historic extraterrestrial beings vacationing Earth. with regard looking existence on different planets, I think of if it replaced into microscopic, the churchie human beings might purely ignore approximately it - or in keeping with threat purely evaluate it like a flu virus or germ. If it replaced into something like unusual humanoids, then the Churchie human beings might say it replaced into devil's kingdom. If it replaced right into a sophisticated society on a planet that formed almost immediately after the universe replaced into formed thirteen.7 billion years in the past, then it could provide credence to the classic extraterrestrial beings vacationing earth hypothesis -and that can provide credence to the "God "thoughts of the international.

Nope. God made the whole Universe, I wouldn't doubt one bit that there are other planets that are inhabited. We are the only mammals with an ego and our's is just big enough to think that we are the best God could do.

Friend People have been trying to dis-pove God for so many years & still they can't, they try to, & in their minds yes, But not in realality, The Bible says Heaven is God's throne & earth is his foot stool, Gen. 1:16 says that God made the sun, the moon, & the stars, that includes all stars that we can not even see.

Some people tend to think so, but I don't see how they come to that conclusion. The Bible mentions nothing about extraterrestrial life one way or the other. To people who say that proves that there is none, I say, What are you doing on the internet? The Bible doesn't say anything about the internet one way or the other, either.
