Millions of Solar Systems - One God?

Question

I have just watched a very interesting clip on Youtube, which shows and explains images from the Hubble Space Telescope. It clearly shows many hundreds of thousands of galaxies, each with 100's of 1000's of stars and planets in them.

Logic and probability tells the sane of mind that at least a handful of these galaxies far far away have planets with life on them.

Does our God also cover these planets? Or do they have their own God?

Answer 1

He only covers the planets where life is intelligent enough to be scared of death. Coincidence...

Answer 2

We all occupy the same space, there is distance between us but to a creator distance is irrelevant. It is impossible to think different gods share this same space and have chalk lines sorta speak to mark their territory. It's illogical to think that our universe has an end and if so, what's beyond that? Infinity is everywhere, there is no end and it's hard to immagine but impossible to define an end. Even if there was a universal border with say worm holes surrounding our known universe, logic also would suggest that they end at some point and the universe would continue beyond. Nothingness is impossible, there's always something. There is 1 God who created everything for whatever purpose, perhaps simply because it is to be. Who knows, maybe we're just a big ant farm and pretty soon god's going to shake it up and we'll have to rebuild. However, speculation of these things really is a waste of time. Johannes put it best, "The meaning of life is not a question to be answered, but a reality to be experienced." Which means this. Thinking is good, but thinking too much about something that cannot be resolved is nothing short of a waste of time. The sheer irony in wasting your life away wondering what the meaning of life is is just mind boggling.

Answer 3

Who knows? No one can know this anymore than we can know how many planets out their DO have life on them. That said, if the God that most people here is what they think he is, there is no reason he cannot cover the entire cosmos if he created it. The Christian and Hindu and Muslim God, for example, has no limitation. So odds are, if one being created the universe, then that one being can cover all planets. That is no more strange than believing the universe is as big as it really is in the first place.

That is not to say there are not other Gods for other planets, but rather that this concept is not a necessity, and that ultimately it is impossible to know.

Answer 4

I hate and love these questions. Religion is such a touchy subj. The most simple way I would attempt to explain it (rationalize it for myself). Scientists believe there was one Big Bang that started the universe. So I look at it as this. One big bang was created by one God. One God overlooks all and regulates all. Considering the vastness of the universe this is almost unimaginable, but that is also the point. God is a few levels above our thinking. I think some things we aren't meant to see....Sorry so long winded. Hope I have helped in some way.

Answer 5

Actually,we have "probabilities" of millions of other planets.We don't actually have any set probability of life,and especially intelligent life,occurring anywhere else in the universe.Only speculation.We have only one point of reference,the Earth.We do not know the conditions that led to life,If we created it in the lab,we still would not know the probability.The "Drake Equation" proves nothing.It is reliant on the user to insert their own speculative variables.If any of those variables are zero,the total of other life equals zero/We also do not know yet if intelligence is even a long term survival trait.We have no direct evidence,none of any extraterrestrial life forms.We are looking,so far,nothing.All the vids show "lights".Hardly proof.I would like to think that the universe is teeming with life.But one cannot say with certainty that life is inevitable,we just don't know yet

Answer 6

And He holds it all together too. Did you think He was about your size or at least just fit inside a few church buildings? If you do not believe this, explain to me what a single force is that holds the universe together. Don't quote me the formula for the force's strength or give me some of its effects, but tell me what the force is. He once told the Israelites. "I am a great King." He just never brags about how great!

Answer 7

What if all physical existence is something that is projected on our consciousness (like in the movie 'Matrix').

What if we (as individuals) are small fragments of consciousness, and God is the sum total of all individual consciousnesses (like the force, in 'Star Wars').

What if this consciousness (God) is projecting everything in our physical existence (including the entire universe with all it's galaxies, evidence of the big bang, etc) onto our senses?

Answer 8

Well this is a very good question. I think it depends on who you see as God. I believe that those who believe in God will be protected etc by him, but i can't see life on other planets having the same god.

Answer 9

There only One God, the creator, the Owner, the Benefactor of all. There is possibility of life on other planets. God told in Quran Sura 26, Ash-Suh-araa:
164) I do not ask you any reward for my services, for my reward will be given by the Rabb of the Worlds.
165) Will you fornicate with males from among the creatures of the worlds

Again in Sura 10 Yunus : 37
This Qur'an is not such as could be produced by anyone other than Allah; in fact it is the confirmation of prior evelations (Psalms, Torah, and Gospel) and fully explains the Holy Book (prior scriptures); there is no doubt in this fact that it is (revealed) from the Rabb of the Worlds.

Again in Sura 25 Al-Furqan
1) Blessed is the One Who has revealed Al-Furqan (the criterion to distinguish right from wrong: The Qur'an) to His servant, that he may be a Warner to the worlds;
2) He is the One to Whom belongs the kingdom of the heavens and the earth, has begotten no son and has no partner in His kingdom; He has created everything and ordained them in due proportions.

Sura Qasas
30) But when he reached there, a voice called out to him from the right side of the valley of the blessed spot from a
tree , saying: "O Musa, surely I am Allah the Rabb of the Worlds."
31)Then Allah commanded, "Throw down your staff." When Musa saw that the staff was writhing like a snake, he turned his back and fled, and did not even look behind. Allah said, "O Musa, come back and do not fear; you are quite safe.

The word worlds is mentioned in different senses also in one place it is mentioned that God has allocated physical rules to each world et. etccccccc.

Answer 10

One God Omnipotent Created all the universes either millions or Billions.

Thats why He is God the Creator.

open you mind boy.

Answer 11

Life from those other planets probably have their own gods and they probably think that they are his greatest creation and the universe was made with them in mind.
