    According to leading astronomers the probe Philae that landed on the comet 67P last November may have discovered microbial life....

    Sadly neither the probe nor the orbiter Rosetta are equipped to test directly but the evidence is interesting.

    These are not easily explained in terms of prebiotic chemistry. The dark material is being constantly replenished as it is boiled off by heat from the sun. Something must be doing that at a fairly prolific rate.” - Prof Chandra Wickramasinghe

    I think it is only a matter of time before extraterrestrial life is positively confirmed. I wonder if it will pose any challenge to theists?

    Read article...

    Great article, Cofty.

    Fisherman: take a long walk off a short pier, please. Dregs of society like yourself is why I wish this forum had a block feature.

    So Fisherman will it make any difference to your theology when extraterrestrial life is confirmed?

    Also why do you mock modest language? Would you prefer scientists behaved like dogmatic theologians?

    Cappy: All you can do is to resort to insults. Learn to think correctly. I recommend books on rules of logic. My advise to you will help you, but only if you take it. Take it easy cap. I think that you are the type that abandons ship first. LOL

    My advise to you will help you

    "advice".

    So as I was asking you - "will it make any difference to your theology when extraterrestrial life is confirmed?"

    "Advice" I was alluding to a previous post when the verb was used instead of the noun. Too deep for you cofty.

    But, yes, advice is a noun. advise is a verb.

    I for one welcome any news of such findings. It's an exciting time to be alive. The coming generations will definitely experience all sorts of marvels in the universe thanks to technological advances.

    I wish I'm around to witness some of these discoveries and answers to questions like wormholes through Spacetime, String theory, Holographic universe and yes, even organic life in outer space.

    Fisherman - No nothing deep about your error at all.

    Are you going to answer my question?

    "will it make any difference to your theology when extraterrestrial life is confirmed?"

    In the interests of balance here is a rebuttal to the claims being made today...

    It is only a matter of time.
