Maybe god wasn't capable of creating aliens...

Maybe God created the speed of light to keep players region-locked.

Tower of babel? Being able to communicate with each other? That's gay. I want to watch them kill each other - God

God is all powerful, but only up to and limited too creating one sentient life form

[–] Nelots@lemm.ee 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I don't think sentient is the word you're looking for, as animals have sentience.

It was a little bit on purpose TBH, it leaves some room for though, and broadens the scope or definition of alien life.

We already know organic compounds can survive in space on astroids and comets, and we know these compounds can survive impact with planetary bodies.

What's to say these same comets have not impacted other planetary bodies in our galaxy, or have traveled between galaxies in our Universe.

Timescales would make it impossible to know if two species on two planetary bodies would evolve at the same time.

Got sidetracked by another project

In my younger years I tried to make sense of the ‘God created humans’ thing by envisioning lots of aliens species with lots of gods, each catering for their own pets. Then I wondered if these gods would compete over who had the best pet, or would go to war with each other.
