I've only been aware of it in science fiction. Any evidence of it actually existing? 80% or something of the universe is made up of dark matter, which not even Google knows what it's all about. Hawking believed the Higg's Boson, A.K.A the God particle, didn't exist. Even he was wrong about that. | ||

I wonder what percentage have killed themselves. "The reason why intelligent life hasn't made contact with us is because by the time they're able to make extra-terrestrial contact, they've destroyed themselves." Can't remember where I read rhst quote. | ||

Interesting Member 6186, 245 posts | Very interesting topic. The Religion view: God created matter and the universe. The science view: Atoms and matter, cosmic inflation. The book of genesis is more symbolic than true. I look at space and the universe in complete amazement. No one know how it began, where it ends or who or what is out there. It is all an opinion. Six billion years we will be vaporized by the dying Sun and still no wiser. | ||

Interesting Member 6186, 245 posts | The point is Wayne no one knows 100 %. From Galileo Galilei to Einstein to Hawking they know just a little in terms of the bigger picture. Cosmology and physics do not have all the answers in my opinion. | ||

‘downsizing’ Member 5704, 3206 posts SQ 280, BP 210, DL 320810.0 kgs @ 96.3kgs UnEq | Wayne_Cowdrey said:Did God put living beings on other planets as well?

Because there was just hydrogen floating around early in the universe. gravity caused this gas to clump together until it got dense and hot enough to trigger nuclear fusion and the first stars were born. And because the amount of matter is huge the number of star births are huge. No other reason. | ||

Still got a little bit of strength Member 400, 22017 posts | I was just pondering things from a religious point of view for a moment. I veer more towards science than religion, but am undecided and very open minded. | ||

woefully weak Member 4748, 1506 posts SQ 157, BP 133, DL 260550.0 kgs @ 104kgs UnEq | Wayne_Cowdrey said:I was just pondering things from a religious point of view for a moment.

Some very backward religions (and a few "fundamentalist" sects within other religions) might have looked to answer the questions we now investigate with science... ...But any major religion which any serious thought or scholarship behind it (for e.g Hinduism, Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, Islam at a minimum) seeks to answer different questions altogether. | ||
