Extra-terrestrial means, very specifically, anything originating, occurring, or existing outside of earth or its atmosphere.

The Gelgemak Catholics know what’s up

It depends on how you define "atheists", which gets trickier with Asian religions/philosophies (admittedly, they don't make it easy)
Yeah. "Atheist" in a broader sense could be "tricky". Asian philosophies generally seem to believe in Karmic returns and / or "reward" of "Nirvana" and final "release" into bliss of nothingness.
When we consider a declaration of "Atheist", is it in the context of:
1) Disbelief is ANY afterlife whatsoever? (just a permanent dirt-nap)
2) Disbelief in any one God of All Things? (Polytheism)
3) "Universal" karmic system? (see above)
Satanists, Luciferans, Freemasons and Mormons, etc all ironically believe in their own post-mortal Deity.
What of those believe one or many can be true at one time? Are they right or wrong? Some people believe "hedging" one bet for an Afterlife cover all the bases.

This reminds me of how Bigfoot evolved over time.
When I was a kid, it was an actual large animal species that people saw and interacted with.
Now, due to having so much difficulties finding/picturing it, the moonbats have turned it into a being that can cross dimensions, which explains why we can't photograph it

A book like the Bible, which is supposed to contain the comprehensive history of the universe, leaving out such a major detail would not be good for its veracity.
"Comprehensive"? Not exactly.
Sufficient and fundamental explanation enough? Absolutely.
Even "Christians" totally miss Genesis', Job, and other scriptural explanations, definitions of Creation and our world's measurements. Add the additional accounts Book of Enoch and things become even more clear.
The entire "Aliens-Infinite Universe" narrative has been created specifically to deceive and undermine faith in the un-erring inspired word of God and its fidelity and "veracity".

I'd proffer that the challenge given to us is to repent and believe.
Fair enough.
But what is repentance? What are sins?
Of the 10 commandments, only three are about the supremacy of God. The other seven are about how we are to live with each other in Earthly society. The parables of the Bible deal more with how to live in society and how to make society better. Most sins are against Biblical concepts of social order. The Bible is an earthly guide for Earthly people.
The Bible would be very different if the message did not include how to live together in life on Earth. Even what little the Bible says about the afterlife (eternal presence with God) is not described as life on another planet. Sins are committed within the ordered structure of society as commanded in the Bible. Repentance is a commitment to live in a manner consistent with Biblical teaching.
At its core, the radical message of the Bible is about making the most of our life on Earth.

There are no such things as 'angels' and 'demons'. There also is no such person or thing as 'Satan'. Its made up bullshite. I'm not saying Aliens exist but if they do it slams the door shut on every single religion. Sorry if that hurts your feelings.

This is much more OT than NT, and it's based in how the various religions of the Med/Fertile Crescent developed as we created societies. The OT Covenant is a spinoff of how the city states of antiquity (for the Canaanites who were splintering into what became the Israelis) developed religion and merged it with the state.

I can see your point.

So if demons and aliens dont exist why did science stop at creating humans? We are far from perfect.
Wouldn't science create beings that could survive forever. Do you realize the sole purpose of your brain is to keep you alive. Why did science not produce a perfect brain that can keep us alive forever?

Wut?
I'm not shitting on Christianity here. Aliens from other universes shuts the door on all religions. All of them.

Aliens, like a civilization that existed before the civilizations written of in the Bible, SHOULD raise some major questions, b/c they're kind of large details to leave out of a book that purportedly describes the formation of the universe. Leaving out such major things raise many questions about a deity-inspired work and start to solidly cement a man-created work by showing how the book was written with the comprehension of simple people of those eras and not a total comprehension of all existence like the Christian God is purported to have.

I definitely believe in God and still identify as Catholic even though most Catholics would not consider me one.
I also definitely believe in some form of Alien, probably the theory of ancient human type species that has been living beneath the surface of Earth for thousands of years.
I also tend to believe there are different wavelength frequencies that Aliens better understand how to utilize on Earth.
I struggle to form a belief on whether Aliens communicate with divine beings in another realm.

extra-terrestrial life
just pointing out that by the literal interpretation of this phrase, God and the angels are extra-terrestrial in that they did not originate on Earth
but no I do not believe in the "little green (or gray) men" variants of the word "aliens".
I do know, however, that demons have and will masquerade as aliens and deceive many.

Does the possibility of extra-terrestrial life forms affect your faith?
Not in the slightest.
Not in the slightest.

Gtfo of my thread, dude.
He's very, very angry about what you did.
His intent was to show that Alien life "disproves" Christianity by showing it "disproves" the Bible.
You took that concept and completely flipped it on him by suggesting that Alien life, is referenced in the Bible and therefore "proves" Christianity.
