Alone in the Universe? by David A Wilkinson
The question of alien intelligence is no longer a matter exclusively for science-fiction addicts. Even if most accounts of sightings can be dismissed, there remain several which are difficult to refute. Given the size of the known universe, the likelihood of an encounter with another race seems statistically probable. This is an extensive study of the evidence and the possibilities, including: the evidence of primitive life on Mars; the discovery of other planets that could sustain life; attempts to detect alien messages; UFOs; alien abductions; government-conspiracy theories, crop circles, alien artefacts; and claims that aliens have visited the Earth in past times. David Wilkinson carefully weighs the evidence, and examines scientific arguments for the evolution of life and space travel. But he goes further. What do these things mean for belief in God or the statement that God made human beings in his image? If aliens exists, do they sin and did Jesus die for them too? Analyzing the belief in alien life and some of the dominant themes of science fiction from the "X Files" to "Star Trek", this book argues that it is almost impossible for human beings to accept that they are alone in the universe. David Wilkinson is the author of "God, the Big Bang and Stephen Hawking" and "Thinking Clearly About God and Science".| SKU | Unavailable |
