Stage is Set for Panspermia Creation Myth

Stage is Set for Panspermia Creation Myth

12/07/2014





Panspermia means that life on earth was seeded from outer space. The term “panspermia” derives from two Greek terms: pan, meaning “all,” and sperma, meaning “seed.” There are two forms directed (ETs seeded earth) and undirected (DNA from a comet or meteor). Many have thought it unlikely because the heat of entry into the atmosphere would incinerate organic matter. However, it looks like DNA is more resilient than we thought. Scientists from the University of Zurich in Switzerland found that DNA can survive:

DNA ‘can survive re-entry into Earth’s atmosphere

Scientists who attached small double strands of DNA to the outer casing of a rocket discovered it could survive temperatures soaring to more than 1,000 degrees Celsius

DNA can survive re-entry into the atmosphere, raising the possibility of extraterrestrial life molecules arriving on Earth from space, research has shown.
The discovery came as a total surprise to scientists who attached small double strands of DNA to the outer casing of a rocket.

Despite temperatures soaring to more than 1,000 degrees Celsius during the short flight to sub-orbital space and back, much of the DNA emerged intact.[1]

Science fiction authors and the entertainment industry have been promoting panspermia for decades. Recent films likePrometheus (2012), Knowing (2009), and Mission to Mars (2000) have sown this seed into the public psyche. 


Interestingly, Richard Dawkins made an appeal to directed panspermia in the movie Expelled when he was asked about the origin of life by Ben Stein:

Quote :

Stein: How did it get created?

Dawkins: By a very slow process.

Stein: Well, how did it start?

Dawkins: Nobody knows how it got started. We know the kind of event that it must have been. We know the sort of event that must have happened for the origin of life.

Stein: And what was that?

Dawkins: It was the origin of the first self-replicating molecule.

Stein: Right, and how did that happen?

Dawkins: I told you, we don’t know.

Stein: What do you think is the possibility that Intelligent Design might turn out to be the answer to some issues in genetics or in Darwinian evolution.

Dawkins: Well, it could come about in the following way. It could be that at some earlier time, somewhere in the universe, a civilization evolved, probably by some kind of Darwinian means, probably to a very high level of technology, and designed a form of life that they seeded onto perhaps this planet. Um, now that is a possibility, and an intriguing possibility. And I suppose it’s possible that you might find evidence for that if you look at the details of biochemistry, molecular biology, you might find a signature of some sort of designer.

Stein (as narrator): So Professor Dawkins was not against Intelligent Design, just certain types of designers such as God.[2]

Kenneth J. Delano, wrote in an officially sanctioned Catholic book, “Our religious sensitivities ought not be shocked by the idea that the evolutionary history of the human body might be traced back ultimately to a primordial refuse heap left by visiting ETI when Earth was young.”[3]


In other words, it is consistent with Catholic theology to believe we might have evolved from ancient alien garbage. Considering all the recent hullabaloo from the Pope about baptizing ETs, one wonders what Rome is up to (time toread Exo-Vaticana). Many have noted Pope Francis’ ecumenical jihad but might it also connect to panspermia?  Perhaps… and here is how.


Dr. Michael Heiser speculates that scientific evidence seeming to affirm that life on Earth was seeded from space could potentially inspire an inclusivist global religion. In regard to panspermia, he wrote, “It will be the paradigm that allows the atheist to tolerate religion, and allows literalist Bible-readers, the eastern Buddhist, and the pagan to simultaneously parse the new science the same way. This might in turn be useful fodder for a global religion.”[4]  This new DNA evidence makes this seem much more plausible.

ye....my favorite senario is....
where the angels(calling themselves aliens) will come down to earth and say they planted us here.....and watched us evolve,but now with our nuclear weapons and wars......we are going to die off.....
. ....so out of love for us,they have returned,to "help" us along our evolution....by giving us some of their seed.
...........its not bad for us....cause after all,were from their DNA in the first place(so the will tell us)...since there's roman catholic churchs all over the world,and they give out eucarest to eat...it will be the perfect "middle man" to gain trust.
....they will mix their DNA inside the Eucharist.and for the salvation of mankind,be asked to eat it.....to deny your are label anti mankind
.       ......they will mix their seed with mankind,but it wont "take".it will give us powers like rejuvenation and healing and protection from cancer and stuff.
.....they only want to help us"move soon quicker" towards what they "created" us to do anyway.....they tell us its for our own good.....lol
...but then after 6 months.....their seed doesnt "Take" anymore with mankind.
....we still have our powers to rejuvenate and strength....but their seed foesnt take,so mankind's body starts falling apart,sores,bleeding,.flesh falling off.....yet they can't die.and because they're no longer human...they cant be saved by Jesus Blood.....cause Jesus is a "kinsmen Redeemer" ......that is,a kinsmen of Adam and Eve...i.e. Humans
......with them rejuvenating yet still falling apart....
......welcome to the Zombie Apocalypse.
......why hollyweird and the evil spirits behind them....have such a love affair ,with zombie's

Interesting theory Moko.

Personally, i think Dawkins and his friends were seeded from outer space.

lol....good one Lovisa.....maybe they are lol
