Since when we see other stars and galaxies we are actually looking into the past, do they mean we won't find intelligent life within this past information we receive, or that intelligent life just doesn't exist at all?

He's saying that what people are perceiving to be alien encounters are not aliens but are demons. As for why would the Lord create worlds without life . . . that's kind of up there with why create other galaxies at all? Why create Mercury? There are many mysteries we don't know. Prov. 25:2 - It is the glory of God to conceal a matter; to search out a matter is the glory of kings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 I don"t belive in Aliens at all.. used to. Now I know they are called demons. Explain why God would create billions of galaxies with perhaps hundreds of billions of planets and then leave them all devoid of life. In your scenario why would there be demons on other worlds? How would they get there? Why would God make worlds for demons? Anybody? Any explanations?
