"Saying that God created the universe does not explain either God or the universe. But it keeps our consciousness alive to the mysteries of awesome majesty that we might otherwise ignore and that deserve our respect." - physicist Charles Misner, as quoted by Christopher Corbally

If humans encounter extraterrestrials, will that mean our ideas of God have to change? If you believe in the Incarnation - that God became human - what would that do to your belief if you met intelligent life from elsewhere in space? Is the Incarnation a one-time, one-place event, or can it be extended to other places in the universe?
