The bible states (taking several verses together) that we may be given bodies which allow for creative power similar to that which allowed for the initial creation (more direct interface/fiat), as well as the inhabitation and ordering of the universe. (Philippians 3:21, Isaiah 45:18, Romans 8, etc.)
As those verses discusses a bodily change which has already been planned, it essentially means such a body has already been designed for us.
While considering those things, I began to wonder if it was possible for DNA-based life to eventually adapt to the point of travel through space without the use of external vehicles.
Can "evolution" alone make the transition from Earth to space -or is it limited by the availability of material?
Is it truly feasible for man to inhabit other planets and solar systems without a drastic change in bodily form -even if using external vehicles?
A body is partly a vehicle -so what sort of bodily vehicle would make inhabiting the universe feasible -and could it be DNA-based?
Can DNA-based life make a "natural" transition to any other sort of base -or can such a transition be made possible by life forms capable of self-evolution?
