Vatican astronomer gives blessing to alien life
A Vatican astronomer on Thursday gave his blessing to extraterrestrials, if they exist, and said he would be happy to baptize one given the opportunity.
“But only upon request,” said Father Guy Consolmagno at the British Science Festival in London. “Every entity, regardless of how many tentacles it has, can have a soul”.
The American research astronomer is an outspoken believer in evolution and the possibility that other intelligent life forms exist outside planet Earth.

'If they exist'….? Okay you win…watching to many 'Aliens' movies right???
-GrantEvoloution-Life evolved from nothing. Nothing created Nothing. Gee I thought that life came only from life. Evolotionist are laughable.
-D. MillsYes – when your are too dumb to understand science laughing is all you can do. Life evolved – get over it.
All you have shown is that you are clueless.
-ChrisChris, LIFE couldn't have evolved, so we can't get "over it". Evidence for intelligent design FAR outweighs the convoluted conjectures of pseudo-scientists so insistant that a Creator (and therefore personal responsibility) can't exist. The study of genetic coding show a "process" so complex that it can only be the product of a master engineer. He exits and He's calling your name. Don't settle for reading archaic textbooks written by others who were only 'guessing' at best. There is a whole new body of materials from credible researchers who have discovered wonderful things outside of the 'evolutionist box"…and it is a BOX.
-PrismI assume you are referring to the book written by Michael J. Behe called Darwin's Black Box: The Biochemical Challenge to Evolution?
This book has been discredited so many times, it is humorous you reference it. The problem for Creationists is that more and more examples given by Behe as evidence of irreducible complexity have been shown to be explicable by known evolutionary mechanisms, something Behe conceded under cross examination while testifying as an expert witness on behalf of the defendants in Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District.
You need to get information from real sources and stop relying on sites like AIG which makes up information all the time.
-Jeff DixonThe Bible plainly describes the "principalities and powers of the air" as being evil spirit beings opposed to God and man.
Why would a 'priest' bless them ? ? ?
-Bertha RogersRight, Bertha, and the only outer space creatures are God's angels and Satan's fallen angels.
-maryallenThe elect angels, billions of them, invisible to us are actually in the stands along with all the angelic creatures and they observe you according to 1 Corinthians 4:9 For, I think, God has exhibited us apostles last of all, as men condemned to death; because we have become a spectacle to the world, both to angels and to men. And Ephesians 3:10 so that the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known through the church to the rulers and the authorities in the heavenly places. 1 Timothy 5:21 I solemnly charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus and of His chosen angels, to maintain these principles without bias, doing nothing in a spirit of partiality. I Peter 1:12 It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves, but you, in these things which now have been announced to you through those who preached the gospel to you by the Holy Spirit sent from heaven–things into which angels long to look.
The bible inspired version planely States god is creator . and has created millions of earths like this one and the inhabitants thereof . the catholic sprinkling does not constitute baptism and is not valid , so back to the book for all.
-ned kellyJeff Dixon,
Many eminent scientists with far greater qualifications and knowledge, and humility by the way, than you have admitted that there is not one thing about evolution that can be shown that is true, and that it is a fairy tale for grown-ups. So, get over it, evolution did not happen.
