Would Space Aliens Disprove the Bible?

So what if there are aliens? Does that disprove the Biblical account of God creating the universe and all life in it? There is a popular misconception that such would be the case.

[This recalls an interesting film, “Enemy Mine,” made almost 40 ago and starring Dennis Quaid and Lou Gossett Jr. Gossett’s character was an alien with a religion, which taught a philosophy not unlike Christianity, although more ambiguously presented. When Quaid’s character hears the teachings in the alien’s Bible equivalent, he comments that he’s heard the same teachings in his own Bible, to which Gossett replies: “Of course you have. Truth is truth.” If God created other beings, He created those in His own image too, and would offer them similar revelations. Until the day comes when they cross our path, though, we need not concern ourselves about their theological significance. — Ed]
