yesterday i saw an online episode of Stephen Colbert Report show and out came a “meteorite curator” from the Vatican, “Brother Guy Consolmagno” (nice last name by the way), its the December 1st episode if anyone wants to see it…the curator and Stephen specifically talk about what would happen to Christianity if there is alien life out there in other worlds… the priest hinted that it could be possible that there could had been in the past (previous to humans creation) of an Alien Christ who died for their sins….
Stephen went on and made fun that if we should worship the Alien Jesus or not…anyways…thought it was interesting..

@korshi: you’ll have to look through the blog categories for this one. Too much to repeat.

The article reminds me of CS Lewis’ Space Trilogy. Out of interest, what do you think are the theological options for extraterrestrial life? Would you take the view that the Fall affected the whole cosmos, rather than just the planet, as the papal astronomer seems to imply here?
