Where do the other planets fit in?

[Split Rock]

Earth was not only the first planet in existence, it was the first object in the universe that had mass.

The earth came first, then the universe was created around it.

Welcome to the 12th Century!

Nothing amazing about that. Like Split Rock, every planet is unique in all the universe. Besides, it was for emotional effect, anyway.

All the planets are unique in their own way, but the earth is the only one that has life (as far as we can determine). That makes earth 'uniquer' than the others. Also, God separated the earth from the rest of the universe (see Gen 1:1) for a special purpose. What other astral body is God's 'footstool', or 'apple' of his eye?

Maybe other planets with intelligent life also have books which claim God created their planet in a special manner. How would you know?

Sorry... I left out "have." It's fixed now.

Wrong.
Your navel came first, then the universe was created around it.

A bird in the hand doesn't disprove two in the bush.

Wow, who knew that in all the universe, Planet Earth was Catholic.

As for the rest.. sorry, rubbish.

Wash the guano off your hand before you come to the table.

No, but would you give up the one you have for two that you cannot see?

Congrats, yet another post on FSTDT

You are doing just that when you deny the evidence provided by science in favor of a litany of 'facts' with no evidence.

It would be funny if they agreed with me, wouldn't it? it might show they have some reading comprehension, eh?

If it's not the earth, then please feel free to correct me.

Just highlight the word in red here that is the first object with mass:

Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.
11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
13 And the evening and the morning were the third day.
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
20 And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
21 And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
23 And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.
24 And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.
25 And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.
31 And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.

not worth my time

 

[AV1611VET]

God

Well, I asked, didn't I?

But for the record:

John 4:24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

Anything that has Energy has Mass.

No exceptions, huh?

(And don't you mean that the other way around?)

It was worth your time to congratulate me here, wasn't it?

Congrats, yet another post on FSTDT

Now all of a sudden, when I counter that, your time becomes precious?

 

[OldWiseGuy]

You are doing just that when you deny the evidence provided by science in favor of a litany of 'facts' with no evidence.

The only 'evidence' science has for life on other planets is the the sheer number of 'planets' and 'probability'. Science reasons that because of the size of the universe there 'must' be life out there somewere. It's a fools errand, like thinking to improve 50 to 1 odds by throwing the dice more, not realizing that the odds remain the same no matter how many times the dice are tossed.

That is mathematically incorrect.

Do you want to understand why, or will you follow the usual creationist way and ignore anything that doesn´t agree with you?
