I don't know what you are such a liar. It is really puzzling.
So then, you disagree with Paul's admonitions that sometimes a Christian should hold in high regard some faithful servant of God ?
[quote] [b] " Furthermore we ask you, brothers, to acknowledge those who labor among you and take the lead among you in the Lord and admonish you,
And to re ...[text shortened]... st different faithful servants of God.
Your ad homs in place of good ministry is sadly noted.

I doubt that is the reason why we dont meet aliens... your reason sounds like science fiction. The reason is that communication is simply beyond our ability, and theirs as well, at this time. Time will change that.
In the end my main point is to go out there we first have to understand what is 'in here' .
We have to understand what it means to be human. Collectively not just individually.
We are a class 3 planet . "Planet of Sorrows" .
Do Christians believe in eternal 'souls' ? Does eternity have a beginning ?
Who are we really?
The answers are here and we don't need no outside help to realize it.

An Extra-terrestrial one would be different.
As I said, I tried to point out the difference between these 2 .

I am not interested. And I want to have the last word. This is the last word. Don't reply to this because this is me having the very last word. Leave it at this. Let's speak no more. I will have the last word.
Originally posted by dj2beckerNo you haven't touched a nerve at all. I'm just not interested. And trying to bring my "wife and kids" into it isn't going to work, either. Talk to other people.

Originally posted by dj2beckerSo trust is based upon the randomness of a person's atoms?
Why trust someone if you believe they are just a random collection of atoms that that formed by chance without being designed for any specific purpose?
Or you can only trust someone whose atoms aren't random?
Or you can't trust someone with random atoms?
Originally posted by sonshipYou still denying the moon landings but believing there are those on other worlds witnessing the flesh-melting horror in your version of Jesus's hell?
Something similar is about to take place concerning the new hype about going to Mars.
A new generation of dreamers is being whipped up.
My concern is for our children repeating history, IF the moon landing really never took place.
If you have children you don't want them to be led over fool's hill even if their parents once were. You've noticed all the new hype about how we just have to get to Mars ?
Originally posted by sonshipDo you believe that the curse is limited to earth then?
I think we underestimate the central importance of human beings.
I think it is realism to understand that the universe was made for man - the creature created in His image with His likeness, made to receive God into himself as eternal life.
No, I don't think Jesus died on other planets.
