In a Cosmic Census (click on post title for more info) scientists have estimated that some 50-billion planets are in our Milky Way Galaxy. 500-million of those planets are not too hot and not too cold to sustain life. There are 300-billion stars in our Milky Way and there are 100-billion galaxies like our Milky Way in the cosmos. So where do we take this info from here? I guess we could say as many scientists say, 'there's a good chance for life somewhere else in our Milky Way Galaxy, not to mention the other 99.99 billion galaxies in the cosmos.' Well whoopty-do! I don't doubt that God may have given the gift of life in other places in this vast universe, but that doesn't change the significance and the blessing of the life he gifted here on Planet Earth. All these Astronomical numbers just confirm an orchestration by our loving Creator God!

I had an "Ethics in Busniness" professor at USF who used those numbers and our missionary duty as Christians to logically PROVE that we HAD to get into outer space: We HAVE to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ to the rest of God's Magnificent Universe!
