There's been some talk over this because a lot of religions are based on having a God creating only humanity in this universe and some say that religion will break down because of how the finding of Extra Terrestrials would contradict or violate some religious beliefs. Some may start changing religion to survive with that, and some religious people will start saying things like "oh, God created life elsewhere." A couple of problems with that assumption, A. If God created what there is in the universe within days, it means that human and alien life should be about the same. But if he created life elsewhere, why wouldn't he share his Law with those other life forms? B. What if they can explain themselves how they were created and proove it too us? Religious people can't just say "I don't care what you think, God made everything" because you will look stupid. So, what do you all think? Experts think that religion on Earth will fall, but some think that there could be some modifications to still live on.
