subject: UFO Interest And Or Speculation [print this page] I was asked by a friend not too many years ago if I believed that life existed on other planets, and if so, might there also, be life in other solar systems and universes throughout the galaxies. I thought about the question and then rephrased it in my mind according to what I thought was being asked of me. "Is there the possibility of human life on other planets within our solar system other than earth and therefore also, beyond?"
I responded gingerly to that question without reservation. Life is everywhere. If we consider the act of movement and intelligence as signs of life, then life is everywhere and in everything. My dad, Thomas Pomeleo, Jr. many years ago said to me that for anything to exist, it has to be in constant motion. Nothing in existence is void or stagnant; it cannot nor could it exist if it is stagnant or void! Even space itself is teaming with life and movement all around us and every where within the solar system and beyond. It is known as natural life, or the life of what we call "nature."
Now, as for human life, I doubt it so, especially as we know it from our own experience here on earth. But, life in general as it relates to types of creatures; yes, I believe it is possible. And yes, that life is embroiled with intelligence and movement in different and various stages of development or levels. For us, in order to recognize life as life, it requires intelligence and assurances of some type of self-awareness, however minute, or it isn't life that we can relate to intelligently with our sense of reasoning.
Fear not, for though Science Fiction Writers have made many stories concerning the possibility of intelligent beings, and often times in gruesome and frightening detail, remember, that there is only One True God and if life in those creatures exists, He knows about them and surely, He accepts their worship as He accepts our worship of Him.
