Does the discovery of new planets out of Solar system might further shake your beliefs?

Question

Life outside of Earth would be another blow to your mythology.

So would they have a copy of the Bible there?
If not it doesn't speak highly of your universal, omnipresent God/

Answer 1

Because the bible says that man was created in god image and that humans were the master of the beasts. With a equal wouldn't that mean that we humans are not the top on god's favorite list. Don't think I do beleive in God, because I do. I just do not beleive in mankind's ablitiy to understand god and his grand plan.

Answer 2

As the opening verse of the Bible tells us that God created the "heavens", there is nothing to "shake your belief" if science discovers that the "heavens" exist. Once again, science just confirms what the Bible says.

In the Bible, it refers to three different ideas as "heaven". One is the atmosphere that immediately surround the earth where clouds are found and birds fly. Something that science supports. The second is what is usually called "outer space" today. It states that the stars and planets are located there. Again supported by science. The third is a spiritual realm in which God the Father resides. Science has theorized the existence of such alternate dimensions, and has found several "facts" that seem to support its existence.

Since that all agrees with the Bible, it does not "shake" anything...except some false ideas that science was teaching before the Bible was even written, like a flat earth (not mentioned in the Bible), and an earth centered universe (not mentioned in the Bible).

Have you ever noticed that all the posting stating that Bible teaches a "flat earth" never tell you where - because there is not place where it says that.

Answer 3

No, I am sure not even life on another Planet would shake me. I believe God would make a way known. Does finding planets shake your Science? We have much more gadgets these days and we still do not know much more than the "Bronze Age Shepard's." God never gave a list of all the worlds out there so why should finding more of God's creation shake us?

Answer 4

Eris, the biggest dwarf planet properly-known, became into chanced on in an ongoing survey at Palomar Observatory's Samuel Oschin telescope by astronomers Mike Brown (Caltech), Chad Trujillo (Gemini Observatory), and David Rabinowitz (Yale college). We formally reported the call on 6 September 2006, and it became into regularly occurring and introduced on thirteen September 2006.

Answer 5

I believe that God created the solar system and life on other planets.

Answer 6

Please explain how or why extraterrestrial life would "blow my mythology." I am a Christian, and my faith tells me that all is created by God. How, then, would extraterrestrials and further discoveries beyond our puny environment threaten my faith?

----------
Edit: Judging from your stretch, I'd say you are the one without a point. Why would there be a Bible in any extraterrestrial environment? The Bible is a compendium of works by humans.

Answer 7

Since the Bible doesn't say how many planets circle the sun or if there is life on other planets, why would you think that such discoveries would shake anyone's faith?

Answer 8

The church hasn't burned anyone at the stake for believing in extra-solar planets in about 400 years. As far as I know Giordano Bruno was the last, executed for this in 1600.

Answer 9

No. No, it wouldn't, actually. I believe in other planets and maybe even life on them. I seriously doubt that God created all this space just for us...there are more out there.

Answer 10

It was always pretty certain that we would find extra-solar planets once we had adequate technology. I don't recall any religious folks ever saying that they couldn't exist, so it probably won't impact anyone's mythology very much.
