Here we are….another day, another “crazy Christian story” from me. Do y’all think I love reporting on these embarrassing folks? Really? OK, yeah, I do.
Creationist Museum founder Ken Ham has called for an end to the U.S. space program. It does cost a lot of money, after all, and anyhow, extraterrestrials aren’t saved by the blood of Jesus Christ, so why should we bother trying to hook up with them?
Yeah, he really did go there. From his July 20 Sunday column:
I’m shocked at the countless hundreds of millions of dollars that have been spent over the years in the desperate and fruitless search for extraterrestrial life. Even Bill Nye ?the Science Guy,? in our recent debate, happily gloated about tax dollars being spent toward this effort. And now, secular scientists are at it again.
And of course, according to Ham, this is all a part of the evil plot to prove that evolution is a real thing.
Of course, secularists are desperate to find life in outer space, as they believe that would provide evidence that life can evolve in different locations and given the supposed right conditions! The search for extraterrestrial life is really driven by man’s rebellion against God in a desperate attempt to supposedly prove evolution!
And all you Trekkies out there? Stop trying to hijack Jesus!
Jesus did not become the ?GodKlingon? or the ?GodMartian?! Only descendants of Adam can be saved.
It’s all because they’re not descended from Adam and Eve:
To suggest that aliens could respond to the gospel is just totally wrong.?An understanding of the gospel makes it clear that salvation through Christ is only for the Adamic race?human beings who are all descendants of Adam.
He later clarified that he doesn’t even believe in aliens. Watch the video below. Let us know your thoughts at the Liberal America Facebook page.
