The look in the eyes of those who never would allow their minds to grow will be priceless!

JERUSALEM UFO 2011 - The 3 TRUE sightings (HD) - YouTube

Not saying it is, as $atan can come as a angel of light also, who wants to sit on the thrown of God on Earth...but see how it is wisked away by another light from another source?....interesting none the less...

Well, why not?

It's like asking why leprechauns are green. Don't expect to find logic or reason in fairy tales.

Did you know an alien spacecraft landed on Mars last week?

We...the human race. Who else do you think I'm talking about?
So now I'll rephrase: The human race still does not know if there is intelligent life somewhere else in this universe.

Those of any of the 4 Abrahamic Faiths Believe in at least 2 forms of intelligent life. Humans and Angels

Christians generally believe in 3, Humans, Divine Angels and Fallen Angels.

Muslims believe in the possibility of at least 4, Humans, Angels, Djinn and Beings we have not been told of.

Speaking just from an Islamic view Angels can not sin and therefore are in no need of being saved from their sins. The others do have the choice of choosing or rejecting the path to Heaven.

How lucky for the angels in your story, that the deck of Samsara was not stacked against them.

Who's to say God couldn't have created life on other planets? I don't think he did, personally. But given the Bible is silent on the issue, only God knows.

The discovery of alien life (on whatever level) wouldn't really conflict with my faith.
