He was God, He came to give us an easier way out of our own peril and provided Himself as the ultimate sacrifice. now....are there aliens or some other life forms out there? i honestly dont know. the only thing to support that are conspiracy theories and so called sightings. the only way to know would be for us to actually make contact or to die and when we stand before God He reveals us. i honestly dont know and dont care. i have my own salvation to work out and have to figure out how to live my life according to His Word. if by some means there does exist other life out there i know God would have revealed Himself to them too and they are trying to do what they can to make it, God would have created them too ya know?
I understand what you're saying, but could you work with me and try to be a little open-minded? I kinda feel like I'm replying to a robot who's programmed to keep repeating the word of God. I mean if your belief is that strong then props, but try to retort with something other than what's in your heart and instead post with your brain.

Don't take it the wrong way. I have very religious parents who both have faith that cannot be swayed by my words(believe me I've tried), and I'm not against that. I want to continue gaining knowledge throughout my existence.

To me being a religious person limits your capability to learn and see the world for what it really is. In the distant future when we come in contact with extraterrestrial who are far more advance than us, who can walk on water, heal the blind, and perform miracles would you consider it just an alien or a being with God-like powers? Before you try to put the word God into a sentence I would like to know what your definition of God is.
