I figure if aliens in outer space existed God would have informed us. I don't see any indication in Scripture that such beings exist. God so loved the "world"----not worlds, or universe----that He sent His only begotten Son to die for it.

In a sense I guess.

Why?

I'm always somewhat ammused by what people will believe because "if it weren't so God surely would have told us in the Bible". Like they have any idea what God "would" have done.

Definitely other worlds with other life on them, and for God's own purpose did he create them, He doesn't tell us why there are other planets because it doesn't pertain to our existence as human beings. Why were are on this planet has no bearing on what other planets have what life.

Maybe our Heavenly Father likes experimenting? maybe he created life on other planets as part of "eternal progression" and learning or maybe he just likes having fun? I know I would....

I believe the whole UFO phenomenon going on today is purely demonic activity. In the Bible Satan is called the "prince of the power of the air." Makes perfect sense.

And for the record, I know people who saw a UFO land in their backyard, and they said it emanated "pure evil." So, being Christians, they began to pray fervently, commanding it to leave in the name of Jesus (kind of like casting out a demon), and it did. Sounds creepy and weird, sure, but I don't at all put it past Satan to use "extraterrestials" and alien spacecraft to deceive people.

then you aren't basing your belief on what is found in scripture, you are basing it on what is not found there.

Absense of proof is not proof of absense.

Gravity exists but God didn't bother informing us about that. Neptune exists but God didn't inform us about that. You don't think that nothing exists that God doesn't mention in the bible do you?
