Me and a mate conlcuded if we did discover inteligent beings on another planet and if they didnt believe in a God, or the first cause, it would weaken the case for theism.


But if you discover inteligent beings on this planet and if they didnt believe in a God, or the first cause, it would not weaken the case for theism?

That's as loony as believing in god(s). No proof, no belief. No exception.

What do you mean "believe in" aliens? Have a trusting relationship with aliens? Of course it is only an estimate of the chances that aliens exist. Of course if the estimate of the chances turn out to be very high, there is no need to revise it downward for modesty sake.
