Science now knows for certain that the number of planets in our universe far out numbers the number of stars - and the number of habitable planets is huge.
The Catholic church is now insisting that christians accept the fact of life on other planets in our universe.

A number of people have been pointing that out.
Here is another interesting source claiming that same point.

At first I didn't believe it could have been a UFO but after watching a couple of episodes of Paranormal Witness I noticed the encounters with UFO's on that show were exactly like my wife had described her experience. So yes I believe in aliens and I think they're already here. |

I find it strange that the church says we must now believe in life on other planets.
Was it not said by Jesus the Son of God about my Fathers house has many rooms (or similar), this is not new knowledge!
Peace and Light

yes but the sea change in science today is that they are now saying that there are more planets than stars.
That is the "big news".

I create a number of both Christian and Sci-fi type art works.
As much as I wanted to believe and acknowledge the possibility of life in the Universe, I could not fully, if it went against anything in Gods word.
One day it hit me, in Genesis God created the Earth and Heavens above.
That is a huge statement if you view it from a given point of view,(ie)
that the Heavens above are indeed physical space and stars. Anyway, it was enough for me to see how powerful and diverse our God can be.
The stars are indeed believed to be as numbered as all the grains of sand in our world, and indeed he promised Abraham that his descendants would be as many as such. I also believe that we should never place our creator in a box, he will do as he chooses, and he will reveal to us what he wishes to.
Perhaps there are many forms of life in our universe, however I believe they all are Gods creation, and they were designed as we were to worship him. |

No doubt at all about that in both Hebrews 1 and Hebrews 11 we are told that God made "The Worlds" through Christ.
And now we know that there are more planets out there than stars.
The question is -- are we going to trust God's word that the fallen beings in our universe are limited to fallen angels and fallen mankind - or are we going to invent an entire Star Trek universe of fallen sinful and even violent intelligent beings not at all limited to fallen angels.
The Bible says in Rev 12 that at the level of the entire universe - the fallen problem is confined to mankind and to fallen angels.
That is a key point.
in Christ,

Why should all aliens be "fallen"?
