Hilarious! so much for space exploration. I doubt even most religious people believe this antiquated stuff.

To inhabit other planets you have to conduct space exploration first. God isn't going to give a map of the universe and give all the answers to everything; no, God is going to allow the wonders of discovery to find habitable planets and discover the technological means to colonize them. This will be more readily achieved with sin removed which causes all of humanity to be little more than a scrambling pile of rats each clawing over each other and dragging down others preventing them from climbing out of the cesspool.

And just because something is old does not mean it is not true. "1 + 1 = 2". This antiquated equation was true 5,000 years ago and is true today and will be true 5,000 years into the future. "God exists and created the universe as stated in the book of Genesis" is also true.

Prove it.

Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn again and rend you. --Matthew 7:6

There is ample scholarship on the web to be read if one is seriously seeking the truth of what the bible says.
And there is nothing I can say that can "prove" to you that "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." It is self-evident that it is so.

Jesus quoted the scriptures, such as Jonah and Genesis, affirming their truth.

And the rich man said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
Jesus said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.
--Luke 16:30

Were Jesus to appear and do and say what he did about 2,000 years ago, even if his miracles were caught on video, there would be those who say it's fake, or that Jesus works through the power of Satan, just as those wicked Jews said who put him to death for exposing their crooked, Babylonish religious traditions when their very own Torah clearly laid out the time of his appearing.

You are of the same mind: even if one came back from the dead, if you will not hear Moses and the prophets, nor Jesus, you will not be persuaded nor will you repent even if your great great granny rose from the grave and appeared before you like Jacob Marley imploring you to believe and repent.

Anonymous wrote:There are several reasons why God created other planets and galaxies

1) To display God's handiwork to his creation, beings which he created with the ability to admire beauty and perfection. Such ability did not evolve nor is it the result of chance but of purposeful design. Only a fool observes the majestic universe and concludes, "There ain't no God."


The heavens declare the glory of God,
the dome of the sky speaks the work of his hands.
Every day it utters speech,
every night it reveals knowledge.
Without speech, without a word,
without their voices being heard,

---Complete Jewish bible

The stars utter no speech yet their glory is understood. It is self-evident that it was created.

2) For humans to inhabit once the Earth reached the point where it cannot sustain any more people. The Earth can sustain billions of people, perhaps even a trillion or more with technological abilities to build structures higher than the Himalayas and deep into the Earth's crust close to the mantle, The mantle could heat every home on Earth given the right technology to conduct that heat.

But the Earth will only hold so many people. The universe has untold numbers of planets able to hold trillions upon trillions of people all giving God praise and glory for his wonderful creation and love towards us for which all of this was created.

3) A place for the righteous to rule

After Jesus returns and brings his reward, crowns will be given to the righteous. A crown is a symbol of governing authority. Some of the righteous will rule a kingdom on Earth, some will rule a kingdom on another planet or will have authority to delegate authority to other rulers on other planets as humans expand into the galaxy.

Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. --1 Corinthians 2:9

Anyway, if I understand God at all, my understanding is that his consciousness is so far above ours that we can’t really ask those questions. It would be like my dog trying to figure out why I go to work, or why I read a book, or why I have philosophical debates on the internet. It’s all totally out of his frame of reference so he can’t even really ask the right questions never mind understand the answers.

Where does he send proselytizers? Uranus?

I must know how an enlightened atheist has who has it all figured out would make a joke about anuses? Isn’t that homophobic? I would expect that from a backwoods conservative hick bigot, but definitely not from an enlightened, forward thinker who eschews the horrendous slurs and jibes our GLBTQ+ family have endured for decades.

It doesn’t make sense.

Whoever said that all atheists are enlightened and forward thinking and don't enjoy an occasional Uranus joke? The only thing that you can say for sure about atheists is that they do not believe in a deity.

Why would God punish “proselytizers?”

Because they are pushing hate.

Ok, snowflake. Hopefully you get transported to a cold planet so you don’t melt.

Spoken like a true hater. Enjoy Uranus.

I think you enjoy many Uranuses already.

I’m not a proselytizing POS so I haven’t been.

Calling people a piece of shit is just a bad look, pp. You have definite anger and uncontrolled rage issues.
