Now that Chad has come out about his belief in extra Terrestrials I too want to agree with the Big Erl and say, now that we know that world doesn’t revolve around us (literally) we have some new thinking to do. That said, I imagine it will be thinking where we see ourselves more fully as part of God’s creation. I also think there is a dignity for us as a species given our ability to have abstract thought, language, and culture – not to mention being the species at least on this planet where the Logos came among us. This dignity doesn’t remove us from the created order, but it calls us too responsible kinship. You could call it the kin-dom of God if you want.

Thanks Big Erl. I’ve had similar questions – usually along the lines of why do we consider ourselves “stewards” if the earth was healthier for billions of years before we arrived? Another reason why the kinship model is better than the stewardship model. I think we will adopt a theology that takes a less central place in the universe – what if (or should I say “when” – and I think Tripp will like this) we meet a more advanced species one day from another part of the universe? This doesn’t mean we don’t have a special role to play in nature. It means we need to recognize our role and be faithful to it as an act of worship.

I think an interesting caviott of our perspective on creation and it’s place in the gospel it that it asumes a helpless universe. Creation by no means needs the presense of man. As theology progresses should our place in that thoelogy also take a less central place in the universe? The reality of God seems to be that it will continue long afterour own extinction.
