Naomi, please p!ease please stop it.
You are more like the Yahboo element catcalling from the sidelines rather than a serious contributor.
Everybody posting on here knows darned well that I don't have all of the answers, and I say so .
That is not a cop out, worming, flouncing or whatever new snide remark you pick.
Try contributing rather than destroying.
Change your attitude.

Theland, //I study the science//
You study the science until you hit that barrier when science says what you don’t want it to say - and then you ridicule people who know a damn sight more than you will ever know - and when that’s evident to all you worm, you flounce, and you cop out.
//Vulcan, what proof would you accept?//
And there you go again. You can’t play the ball and so you toss it haphazardly into the other fellow’s court hoping against all hope that he won’t notice your sleight of hand and will miss the goal. You fool no one.

Well now! Be told! Your post says far more about you than it does about me!
Science has hit its barrier in quantum field theory, and so far can go no further.
So now we turn to common sense and probability.
Or like you say, ''I don't know.''
But of course, you ignore the theory of knowledge, and are caccooned in your own little illusory world where you are central, and disagreement is met with derisory comment as illustrated above.
The sad thing is not only are you wrong on several counts, but that you may be so influential as to deprive others of a closer relationship with God.
If you have nothing constructive to say, why say anything at all? You admit that you don't know, and it shows!
How can you dare to question anybody else's experiences when you so readily confess to your own personal ignorance and arrogance?
The quest to find God is a personal journey that never ends, and its rewards are not here, most certainly not to be found on Answerbank, neither is it helped or hindered by winning over converts, although it is incumbent on me to answer those who seriously seek God as best I can. But that journey entails walking a difficult path not made any easier by those like you whose future is assured already, having made an enemy of the One from whom one can never run, and like the fallen angels can only bide their time causing mayhem and destruction wherever and whenever the opportunity arises.
I try my best to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Explain to your followers what particular parts of that teaching you disagree with and why it should be avoided.
For you, by your own admission, death is the end, final, you live without hope, and wish your hopelessness on others.
May God forgive you.

17:19 Theland. You might be interested in this Wikipedia summary of panspermia.
"Panspermia (from Ancient Greek πᾶν (pan) 'all', and σπέρμα (sperma) 'seed') is the hypothesis that life exists throughout the Universe, distributed by space dust,[1] meteoroids,[2] asteroids, comets,[3] planetoids,[4] and also by spacecraft carrying unintended contamination by microorganisms.[5][6][7] Distribution may have occurred spanning galaxies, and so may not be restricted to the limited scale of solar systems.[8][9]
Panspermia hypotheses propose (for example) that microscopic life-forms that can survive the effects of space (such as extremophiles) can become trapped in debris ejected into space after collisions between planets and small Solar System bodies that harbor life.[10][11] Some organisms may travel dormant for an extended amount of time before colliding randomly with other planets or intermingling with protoplanetary disks. Under certain ideal impact circumstances (into a body of water, for example), and ideal conditions on a new planet's surfaces, it is possible that the surviving organisms could become active and begin to colonize their new environment. At least one report finds that endospores from a type of Bacillus bacteria found in Morocco can survive being heated to 420 °C (788 °F), strengthening the argument for panspermia.[12] Panspermia studies concentrate not on how life began, but on methods that may distribute it in the Universe.[13][14][15]
Pseudo-panspermia (sometimes called "soft panspermia" or "molecular panspermia") argues that the pre-biotic organic building-blocks of life originated in space, became incorporated in the solar nebula from which planets condensed, and were further—and continuously—distributed to planetary surfaces where life then emerged (abiogenesis).[16][17] From the early 1970s, it started to become evident that interstellar dust included a large component of organic molecules. Interstellar molecules are formed by chemical reactions within very sparse interstellar or circumstellar clouds of dust and gas.[18] The dust plays a critical role in shielding the molecules from the ionizing effect of ultraviolet radiation emitted by stars.[19]
The chemistry leading to life may have begun shortly after the Big Bang, 13.8 billion years ago, during a habitable epoch when the Universe was only 10 to 17 million years old. Though the presence of life is confirmed only on the Earth, some scientists think that extraterrestrial life is not only plausible, but probable or inevitable. Probes and instruments have started examining other planets and moons in the Solar System and in other planetary systems for evidence of having once supported simple life, and projects such as SETI attempt to detect radio transmissions from possible extraterrestrial civilizations.

On the contrary, I stand consciously and deliberately by every word I have said.
I care not one iota what others think of me.
I am aware that I'm not in a popularity competition, and if I was I'd be proud to get the booby prize, as long as I remain satisfied that I crossed the finishing line with my honesty and integrity intact.
I am reminded of Vulcan, so cruelly bereaved so early in life, and responsible for his two sons, who when asking a question, or even attacking the very idea of God, deserves an honest answer, an honest response to his puzzling over the unfairness of life.
If he can find just s glimmer of hope, then it is worth the flak I get to point him to the One who is Hope.
And there are many more like him.
Nailit for example, gets angry, and has much to be angry about. But is he not Aldo deserving of hope? Or should I don my tin hat and keep my head down for fear of personal criticism and abuse?
No, I'll continue to deal with what fate presents me with to the best of my ability, even if the general concensus is that I have completely lost the plot. Amen!
