[QUOTE="BumFluff122"]

I don't think aliens are mentioned anywhere in the bible. They woudl be 'just one fo God's creatures' However if aliens do meet us one day and Christianity is still live and kicking more than likely the believers will come up with some excuse for soemthign and then twist the meanings of the words in the bible to meet their own needs. As would the believers of the Koran and any other holy text you can think of.

I fail to see how aliens would disprove christianity at all. Just because it isn't mentioned. Yeah, I am sure it would freak some people out. But it wouldn't disprove anything. Unless of course they had proof that disproved religions well then I will concede if they had that.

I didn't say it would disprove Christianity. I said there is no mentiopn of aliens in the bible however more than likely someoen would twist some quote in the bible to 'prove' that the bible does speak about extraterrestrial life. As has happened before with other finds such as the 'bohemoth' being called a dinosaur by some.

Not unless God wrote some other chapters of the Bible before he came to Earth where he made some aliens and other planents, odds are if there where aliens our species would attempt to convert them -_-

There are many many many chapters of the bible. The bible you currently read were hand chosen chapters by a panel that thought they were the most pertinent.

No. It doesn't have to. The dogma does that enough on its own.

It's always been one of the conspiracy theories. That the government couldn't allow aliens to be found out because their discovery would cause mass hysteria in religions.

Pixel-Pirate

I think the fact that EVERYONE would be causing mass hysteria would take any spotlight off any hysteria caused by religions. I don't even understand how they would, tbh.

No, Christianity could simply change.

Big_Bad_Sad

So change the book which people have been living their lives by for the last 200 years? Isnt that admitting defeat?

Well it has been translated into many languages and some small details have been misinterpreted because of it. So in that way it's been changed :P. Also, many sects of Christianity have been created to fit newer times or beliefs. People just take the words from the same book differently, they can do it again with aliens. If Christianity couldn't adjust then it wouldn't be a major religion today.

Why are people so adamant on disproving Christianity? Imagine if all of this evidence piles up, aliens and all and when you die you still get judged. You would feel like a major ass.

In order to imagine myself being judged by Christian "God" I have to imagine a whole bunch of equally improbable crap involving Christianity, which is obviously a lot of imagining. Why not just live in/accept reality?

I am not Christian (I was born RC though but the obvious censorship of the bible annoyed me so I am just a spiritual person per say) first of all but which ever god it is doesn't matter :P .. I just thought it would be hilarious about those people who spend their lives denouncing Christianity and religion as a whole being judged when they die, I'd actually love to know what reaction a few people here would have.

Incorrect but say what you will. Belief is the foundation of almost everything we have today, if everyone lived in/accepted *reality* there would be no america.

I have no religious beliefs, I'm not an American, I fail to see your point. Disproving idiotic beliefs really has no impact on me.

I know. Christianity, or at least many Christians, are of the mind that if you don't believe in their God you will go to hell. It's one of the ten commandments "Thou shall not have any other Gods before me" or something similar. I'm just saying if that is true then people better hope they have it right.

Logical. I fail to see your point, because I'd rather not live my life in fear of being judged by the invisible man in the sky I'm ignorant?

THey never thought you'd fall of the other side and go to hell.

But I doubt any of the aforementioned groups had any interaction with Colombus.

How is that related to what I posted? Columbus was Christian, he found America, and in turn discovered the world was not in fact Flat (At Least for himself)?

Your post shows Christians weren't the only ones to believe the earth was flat, my post countered they where the only ones urging Colombus not to sail to his death. Espada's whole argument was I sound just as ignorant as those who thought Colombus was sailing to nothing, who where ironically Christians. No one said they where the only ones with this view, they where just the only ones to talk to Colombus, your post was somewhat irrelavent.
