Wow Bob, you really have no ethics, trying to suggest he was burned for that belief.
Do you say that alternate solar systems was not one of the issues or heresies for which Bruno was cited ?
 
“It is a matter of profound indifference whether the earth revolves around the sun, or the sun revolves around the earth,” said a college sophomore student of Camus, as he disembarked from the U.F.O. and the little green men that had abducted him by surprise at the registrar’s office, “the only real question is whether to commit suicide.” Or to lesson the extreme, “whether to study for exams or road-trip to the beach.”
Eye Tappa Keg was the motto of all earthlings the little green men had learned.

😃

btw really enjoyed your wonderful thought of the highest memory.
 
I love speculating, so I have given you my full attention.

Infinite possbilities

It may be that aliens, somehow, can preserve a dead person to an extent that they can be brought back, hours after heart failure.
Again, this all depends on the nature of mind; if the mind is material, then maybe something can be done about it; but if the mind is immaterial, that is a dimension of reality in which we have no authority. It may be that we can keep the body alive, but if the mind is gone, then it’s gone; and there’s nothing we can do about it but prey.😦

However; ourselves and every other function in reality, even the vast abyss of space, appears to be dependent on the expansion of time (the universal lubricant); if the Grays could build an artificial-dimension of space, outside of which time has no command, then maybe, just maybe:), the time-space inside such a dimension could be made relative to the rest of the universe and even stopped with out effecting the space-time of our universe. If something like that were possible, then you could, in theory, put somebody in such a dimension, and have billions of years go by with out affecting or degrading the organism inside. They say that time is the fire in which we burn, but in such a dimension, time would have no meaning; it has no teeth there.

Such a device would require a being to have the power to shape space time, and quite possibly “a removing of ones self from the known universe”; which is why I think that it is highly unlikely anyone could harness such technological powers, even if it can be done in theory.
Going back to this, I wonder if you realise you have described God? He can keep that mind alive and has time all figured out.

He is the “being” that has the power to shape space time and remove Himself from the known universe.

See, most people looking for aliens are actually looking for God. They just havent realised it.

Personally, I believe that if one person were to believe in aliens. (Believe refering to one’s existance and not one’s worship.) Then that person would be effected by by the same ruling as one who follows an anti christ. When aliens is acknowledged as a rational being or an equal to humans. It is possible that there exists animals we don’t know of. But the shear notion of an alien who is equal or superior to humans in body, mind, spirit, and/or morality is far too radical of an idea.

When thinking about the existance of aliens, it’s views can be viewed positive, negative, or neutral. We can think they are just like or even better. Who have been under God’s trust for a long time. Of course this comes with a problem. Instinctfully humans are always bound to something and away from others. By initial instinct, humans fear aliens. Aliens give them horror and aliens reportings are typically negative.

Then we have other approaches that lead one away from the church. If aliens do exist, then that is either proof of God’s ability to create or proof of abiogenesis. If this were proof of God’s ability to create, we should be given something to show the unity of humans and aliens to come for the future. We could relatively state that they are our brothers, but physically and spiritually they are a different kind. We are not the brothers of angels nor the brothers of animals, we are relatively and adoptively the to be brothers of Jesus, but not directly. As such there is no real way to put a unity for aliens, unless God says so, and we haven’t heard of such a direct message yet. Abiogenesis on the other hand, just leaves a desire to abandon God.

Which leads me to the first claim. Christ did not teach us that aliens (grays) are our brothers. We can think of it relatively, in the sense that we are all living; much like animals. Or even spiritually existing like angels or demons. But we are not the same nor related. As such, any direct notion that God Jesus is for or allows the existance of aliens falls under a “something Jesus didn’t teach” stamp. Typically this is reference of an anti christ. Or sometimes a church’s decision.

Not every single answer is written by God for every single situation that will ever exist. But God gives us a broad solid foundation to work on. For the moment, we can say there is something out there. But for it to be holy, saintly, loving, glory, is a far stretch.

This is just me, but I have the feeling that aliens are really just spawns of demons. Manifestations of fallen angels who wish to lure human’s faith by making them believe there is life outside of the Earth.

I don’t see a purpose for aliens to be around for 1000s of years without contacting humans for intergalaxtic unity. The only thing that makes sense to me is that they are out there floating around. They need to just bother enough people to make their existance known. From that they can push people to believe they come from space and evolved into a far superior race that knows what real truth is. Then they can takes to their mothership and to God himself. There we will be with him forever in the depths of hell’s fire.

But this is just my views. The second a spaceship lands on Earth and welcomes people. I will so go to church, confess all my sins, and pray nonstop for everyone. And i will not eat or sleep, because if I am right. Then demons will be prepping up for the end of the world, and I have to make sure I can save my loved ones the only way that actually would work.

But this is just me, you guys can think what ever you want. Well that’s if you don’t live in North Korea.
