Jupiter's moon, Europa, is covered in ice. Miles of it. And under that ice, there is good reason to believe, there is a titanic moon-wide ocean. Because Europa is where it is, and is subject to Jupiter's gravitation, it's geologically active. It has internal heat.

We've discovered that here on earth way down at the bottom of the ocean where the sun's rays never shine there is life. We call them extremophiles, lovers of the extreme environment, and they live on guysers of piping hot chemicals from the earth's crust.

Life is chemistry. If we drill down through all that ice and we can find a thermal vent, we just might have found alien life.
In the absence of God, I found Man.

Are you pushing your own short comings on us and safely hating them from a distance?

Is this the virtue of faith? To never change your mind: especially when you should?

Young Earth Creationists take offense at the idea that we have a common heritage with other animals. Why is being the descendant of a mud golem any better?
