what do you believe and why do you believe it? setting aside the great creation debate, what do you yourselves believe? and then, why do you believe it? someone told you so? what if they were wrong? everything you think is set in stone might melt into an unslightly puddle and evaporate into foul air. consider the underlying structure of the universe, that "one blueprint" dr. shostak notes in his article, "sharing the universe". one design. who designed it? as far as understanding, i think we are in our adolescence. now that the pope has declared it to be okay to believe in aliens, that it does not contradict God, and that these aliens are "our brothers", will the rest of christianity follow suit? is this a beginning to a new understanding? i believe the universe is full of life, in many forms and faces, as varied out there as it is here on planet earth. creation keeps on creating. i believe because of the math applied to it, the science applied to it, and belief in a God who, as Master Artist, has the immense capacity to create as many worlds as pleases Him to create. i let my imagination run away with me. we go to fine fair and far places. imagine if we had contact from beings on another world, who sang of God? so i strap myself back on planet earth and consider the possibility of a more savage truth, that "they" could be as violent a species as we are. maybe those hellacious distances between our worlds is a good thing. what, we can only conquer those distances when we have evolved to a state of intelligence that has outgrown our savage natures? good luck, humanity. but look at it this way. we have time to do it. if the timing of the birth, life, and death of stars is so precise, wouldnt our lives be timed to that precision as well? man has marched a long way from the cave to the neon jungle he now inhabits, in a relatively sort amount of time. according to uncle albert, it is all relative.
