Official Vatican Astronomer Says Jesus Died for Aliens Too

Post by Matthew »

You can't make this up... But the Vatican can!

In our last entry top Vatican Astronomer Guy Consolmagno stated how contemporary societies may soon “look to The Aliens to be the Saviours of humankind.” To illustrate the theological soundness of this possibility, Consolmago argues that humans are not the only intelligent beings God created in the universe, and, he says, these non-human lifeforms are described in the Bible. He starts by pointing to angels ... Read that again, then ask yourself: Did the Vatican’s top astronomer actually mean to use the story of the Nephilim from the Bible as an example of the kind of “space saviors” man could soon look to for salvation? This incredible assertion is only topped by what he says next. In quoting John 10:16, which says, “And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd,” Consolmago writes: “Perhaps it’s not so far-fetched to see the Second Person of the Trinity, the Word, Who was present “In the beginning” (John 1: l), coming to lay down His life and take it up again (John 10: 18) not only as the Son of Man but also as a Child of other races?”

:shock:

Truly, if the procession of the Holy Spirit from the Father is perfect, then that from the Son is superfluous.

I went to a talk by Fr Consolmagno. I had a feeling he was liberal, but I didn't realize just how much so.

Maybe there is intelligent (material) life elsewhere, but we have no reason to think that this life will be benign towards us or have any part in our salvation.
