- funkydude101, on 06/14/2008, -3/+226I for one, welcome myself as an overlord.
- inactive, on 06/14/2008, -3/+143It seems pretty obvious to me that planets are seeded by other planets. Meteorites are like macro-sperm sharing materials and information just like on the molecular level. It's a fractal universe people - as above so below and all that malarkey.
- TecK415, on 06/14/2008, -4/+104So it's kind of like earth is one big egg, and the universe shot a big fat load all over her. This makes sense actually.
- inactive, on 06/14/2008, -5/+86*anal probes himself*
- majestichazard, on 06/14/2008, -1/+76Abiogenesis has nothing on the Cumshot theory.
- andrewtheart, on 06/14/2008, -0/+64If I knew you IRL I would give you a huge high five right now.
- JGib, on 06/14/2008, -10/+66ಠ_ಠ
- Efflux, on 06/14/2008, -7/+64They don't need to backpedal or make any explanations. Thats why it is so hard to argue religion. It was God's plan. God is unknowable. Aliens could come down and tell us every secret of the universe, and Christians could tell us that it was all God's idea.
- inactive, on 06/14/2008, -0/+54We are galactic bukakke. No wonder we lack self esteem.
- mwosh, on 06/14/2008, -0/+37Don't reference Carrot Top.... it only encourages him.
- FreeTalkLIve, on 06/14/2008, -4/+39Thats how they roll.
- msevely, on 06/14/2008, -3/+36I come in peace
- sickanimations, on 06/14/2008, -3/+37Old new is old. Planets are formed from "extra terrestrial" suprnova particles. Everything terrestrial has once been extra terrestrial.
- inactive, on 06/14/2008, -13/+42Yeah, I thought there was something strange about Carrot Top....
- almk, on 06/14/2008, -2/+29Yes, but are you the last cylon?
- praisethelard, on 06/14/2008, -3/+30So...our creation counts as bukkake?
- moocowrat, on 06/14/2008, -2/+27watch out! i'm gonna be poking my head up in people's windows now...
- RetroGamerBruno, on 06/14/2008, -1/+24I always liked the theory provided by the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy series, earth was populated by the unwanted and stupid inhabitants of another planet. I figured that this would explain a lot about society.
- Psiplex, on 06/14/2008, -1/+22It has to start somewhere. Why not bombardment by precursor DNA? I thought of that after sniffing, rather than drinking my coffee to wake up. Just as good you see.
- mokayogi, on 06/14/2008, -1/+22So if Meteorites are Macro-sperm then that means the Earth is a Macro-ovary and we're all living inside a Macro-vagina.
And somewhere out there is a Macro-penis waiting to shoot another load and create life as we know it. - lava, on 06/14/2008, -4/+24ALT+164 is what you're looking for.
- MendotaLee, on 06/14/2008, -1/+20Francis Crick, of Watson and Crick, the guys who discovered DNA, talked about how he thought life came from outer space in seeds, that were all over the universe.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panspermia - feshmania, on 06/14/2008, -3/+22doesn't this all just encourage the Scientologists that they're right?
- TheSabre, on 06/14/2008, -8/+27Why does everyone on Digg feel the need to take the "first jab" at Christians? I'm a Christian, and I sit here minding my own business. As far as I can remember, I've never made a single post saying anything other than what I said in this post. I understand that the majority of Digg is not religious and I respect that. You have every right not to be as I have to practice religion.
- flipdoubt, on 06/14/2008, -2/+22We are all made of stars.
No, really. This has nothing to do with Moby. - ZodiacKiller, on 06/14/2008, -26/+44lol, can't wait to see what kind of outlandish backpedaling biblical explanation Christians will use to try and rationalize this, if it's proven to be true...
- rationalist, on 06/14/2008, -6/+23If you, as a Christian, truly do not try to spread the "Truth" as you know it to others, and truly do not believe that you are in any way superior to nonbelievers, and truly believe that an atheist can be as moral and complete a person as a Christian - then you are violating some of the basic tenets of your faith as practiced by the overwhelming majority of your fellow Christians.
Perhaps atheists, who form a distinct minority that shares zero power in the United States - where most diggers are from - feel threatened by the weight of historical Christian intolerance, and present Christian society's ostracization, marginalization, distrust and disrespect for atheists and our beliefs.
Perhaps an explanation for the anger you see is based on the same impulses that cause some gays to lash out at heterosexual intolerance, some people with differing skin tones from the majority to lash out as discrimination based solely on levels of melotonin in the skin, or women to be upset at what they perceive to be unequal treatment based solely on the configuration of their reproductive organs.
When a homosexual, an African-American, or a woman express anger at "straights," "whites" or "men", I don't take it personally - even though I am a straight white male who does not discriminate between people based on those criteria. I understand that their feelings are based in the real behavior of a majority of my peers, and, more importantly, by the power structure that excludes them.
As an atheist, I try very hard not to be hateful or to assume all theists are bigots - but, since the very essence of your religion is based on prejudicial, divisive and exclusionary assumptions, and since, in practice, Christianity is authoritarian, hierarchical, and chauvinistic - perhaps it should not be so difficult for you to understand why atheists harbor negative feelings towards the acolytes of your faith.
Of course, my understanding is that your faith teaches, above all, compassion and understanding, so I am continually puzzled by the remarkable lack of sensitivity, empathy and concern towards atheists expressed even by self-professed "enlightened" Christians like yourself. - adml_shake, on 06/14/2008, -3/+18I'm waiting to hear what Tom Cruse thinks, or who ever is holding his leash.
- jasonallthetime, on 06/14/2008, -6/+21Doesn't science also adapt and come up with different explanations based on newly discovered information?
- dorkdork777, on 06/14/2008, -1/+15Lay off. Atheists who talk ***** about Christians are no better than Christians who talk ***** about Atheists.
(I'm Atheist) - inactive, on 06/14/2008, -0/+12They did the same thing with Australia.
- inactive, on 06/14/2008, -0/+12no.
- Trax91, on 06/14/2008, -4/+15Hey, Jesūs, get back on the lawn!
Extra info: This theory exist for quite sometime already. It's called Panspermia.
Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panspermia - Borgcube, on 06/14/2008, -2/+13Its a valid theory, for sure, but there is no proof for it. And besides, life would have to evolve somewhere else for this to be true anyhow.
- rand0mm0nkey, on 06/14/2008, -0/+11So we can piss you off?
- MiddleOfNowhere, on 06/14/2008, -0/+10If you read about the Panspermia theory (see above), you'll find that *if* this is true, we are as much of an an "accident" as every flower, every leaf of grass.
Which also means that there are probably many, many more of those accidents out there.
And this is one of the most encouraging things I can think of - that this seed has fallen on many worlds.
Because it would make literally make us children of the cosmos, not (only) of the third rock from the sun. - sakuraz, on 06/14/2008, -2/+12so....in other words....
Big Bang = The Day I Came - inactive, on 06/14/2008, -3/+13What a Twist.
Earth is like a Shyamalan movie. - Risingashes, on 06/14/2008, -2/+12Scientology was right all along. Repent! Repent nonbelievers and write cashier cheque so you may be saved.
- Kristijan12, on 06/14/2008, -3/+13I guess that`s the reason why we treat this planet so bad.
It`s because subconsciously we knew it isn't ours. :) - feshmania, on 06/14/2008, -0/+10tell me more about these "books"
- ZodiacKiller, on 06/14/2008, -7/+17Yes, that is the definition of science. The ability to change preconceived notions when new information refutes them. It's called rationality, and it happens to be the antithesis of religion.
- Viend, on 06/14/2008, -1/+10No we are the products of an accident which occurred during an inter-galatic bukkake party.
- inactive, on 06/14/2008, -0/+9"It's bringing peace, don't let it get away, break its legs!"
- azncommunist198, on 06/14/2008, -3/+12You seem like a guy who bashes Christians for not being tolerate of others, when the only thing you know about that religion comes from Faux and other news sites. If you take the actual ***** time to learn about that religion, aside from news reports about the latest nut job, you might turn to realize that lots of Christians arn't as stupid as you think.
- inactive, on 06/14/2008, -0/+9The article doesn't assert that 'aliens did it'. It says that life on Earth isn't 'native' to Earth since it was seeded from elsewhere. Saying 'we are the aliens' is a pretty scientific way of looking at things, and it also means (if true) that there are more of 'us' out there (evolved from the same seed to suit their own conditions).
- MiddleOfNowhere, on 06/14/2008, -0/+9I'm sure you're joking, but please don't insult the Panspermia hypothesis (which has been around for a while and is backed by solid evidence; see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panspermia#Evidence%2 ... by bringing it even close to Ron Hubbard's retarded pulp story of a Galactic Emperor enslaving ET souls in Earth volcanoes ...
- th3heretic, on 06/14/2008, -1/+1010 internets to you sir.
- Wakuko, on 06/14/2008, -0/+9Earth was terraformed!
