October 06, 2020 EP 10: ALIEN LIFE AND THE CHRISTIAN THEOLOGICAL IMPLICATIONS (pt 2 of alien series w/ special guest Alex Moore)
We pick up where we left of last week, starting with Bob Lazar and whether or not there are aliens at Area 51. Alex brings up the idea that perhaps "aliens" as we know them could be demonic spirits, citing Aleister Crowley and his portrait of 'Lam'. That conversation led to how intelligent life could perhaps impact the Christian theology and our personal faith.
If intelligent alien life exists, would they be 'made in the image of God' as well?
would they be 'human' if they resembled us?
did God populate other planets?
are dolphins saved?
