A VERY SMART GOD

God was very, very smart to put the stars so far apart in outer space. Had He put them close together nobody ever would have survived and none of us would still be alive. Putting us face to face with aliens in space would eliminate the human race before it began and man would have become an also-ran quicker than you could state Bill Gates.

The nearest galaxy is more than a billion light years distant, a mere instant in interstellar terms. Even angels with supersonic and atomic wings and other travel things might never reach their site in their flight in a dark and stark trip through the severe galactic stratosphere.

If there is even a scent of intelligent life out there somewhere they'd be involved in wars with other stars that have oil and that would cause turmoil and agitation that could spell the end to their advanced and enhanced civilization.
