Here is additional info on the concept of GOD, Aliens and The Universe:
There is no statement in the Bible which says that Earth is the only place where God saw fit to create life. The fact is that God has created angels and they are very different than are we, so we know that the creation of beings other than ourselves is a certainty, and the existence of other physical beings certainly has to be held out as a possibility. If life is discovered on Mars or on one of Jupiter's moons, it will have no biblical consequence. Religious people have made the mistake in the past of making something that has no biblical connection an issue. There were those at the start of the twentieth century that said man would never fly. These folks would use passages like Acts 17:26 (KJV) which say "God has appointed the bounds of man and the limits of his habitation" to justify their view that man would never get off the ground. That might seem silly to us, but we need to understand that statements about life in space are of the same nature and have no biblical base.
The Bible addresses itself to man and to man's needs. When John 3:16 tells about God's love, its object is man and that is who the message of the Bible is to. If there are other beings who are like us in any way, they may have a similar message that is for them. It is highly unlikely (given the distances that exist in space) that we will ever know if there is life out there, but even meeting a Mr. Spock or ET would not invalidate the Bible or the teachings of Jesus Christ or His sacrifice on the cross.
....AND what is Genesis chapter six all about?”
For those not up to speed on the Old Testament, this part of the creation story deals with a category of creatures called “the Nephilim”, a non-human race (sometimes referred to as the "giants") that apparently inhabited the Earth around the time Adam and Eve got kicked out of the Garden of Eden.

Personally, I think that GOD loves all His creations and thus, he gave us these commandments which is for our (mankind) benefit AND will help us in our evolution into becoming a more advanced and intelligent race. The more spiritual we are, the more we understand the truth, and the better this civilization will turn out to be. \m/ai
