Romanian giants, Nessie, and a flat earth. I think I found the title for my new book. ;)

I think I remember something on the History Channel about the Pope declaring that the discovery of alien life would not threaten the Christian faith. Then again, the same show insisted that the Pope is secretly hiding some Vatican alien tech (maybe it's in his hat), so I can't be sure on that quote.

If Alien life was proven to exist, all that would mean is that God created the universe to produce various types of life, just as he did Earth.
The theological issue is that God made Humans in His Image BUT that is only an issue IF we believe that God made ONLY humans in His image and we KNOW that to NOT be the case.
Long Before humans came around there was already another race of beings in God's image - The Angels of Heaven.

A new book? I think you just founded a new religion. y[-o<
Let us proclaim the mystery of our faith: Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again.

Lord I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed.
