RE: Confirmed Alien Life?... Could it be!

Hello David and Roger,
If these creatures lack DNA, I'd be extremely surprised. Every living creature has to have it, even if it's an alien life form.
This story reminds me of what happened during an experiment carried out in Victorian times.
Hi Patsy,
I did somewhere sometime read that Victorian story and I take it with a few tons of salt over my shoulder. :DIMHO there's FAR more to the creation of LIFE than that. For example, I believe spiritual processes are involved. I also think that Victorian story is just that - some kind of story. Sorry! 😉
Who has a clue what an alien life form would consist of? Personally I'd say that I'd expect DNA ... but isn't it the whole point, that if it is alien, we don't know what to expect and what to claim "must" be there?
I don't know - it may turn out to be a red herring (that's metaphorical, not literal! LOL) - but I still find the story Roger has brought to our attention quite riveting. In fact it really grabs me.
Oh, BTW, I came upon all these posts by chance. So far as I could tell, HP was "down" all yesterday - and I still get no email notifications so I don't know if anyone has posted in response anywhere to me on any thread. What are other people experiencing?

Hi all,
Mike is fixing HP on new servers i believe and its still a bit buggy but is getting there. Email notifications still aren't working for posts or PMs, but should be soon. btw if you check your inbox David I sent you one earlier!
RE: Confirmed Alien Life?... Could it be!
I don't know, David. There must be some truth in this Victorian story. I keep an open mind on things like this. With the right conditions, the right building blocks of life and a little help from the atmosphere, some sort of primitive life at least, can evolve. From that primitive life, other species can grow if the conditions are sustained for long enough. That is what happened on our planet, eons of time ago. Spirituality and so forth, came as a consequence, a realisation. The spirit always was there, that 'spark' of God if you will, but there is potential to create physical life when the conditions are right. Even today, new species are evolving so planet Earth/nature has not yet done with it!
Love,
Patsy.

Yes, but evolution isn't always upward and for the better. It can apparently go backwards. I keep hearing about this new species of being called "hoodies". 😉
