Abstract Theological statements on extraterrestrial life in Christian and Bahá'í texts, and in the work of Giordano Bruno and Galileo.
Notes Abstract: This article discusses theological statements of the possibility of extraterrestrial life (ETI) in the universe in Christianity and the Bahá'í Revelation. The persecutions of Giordano Bruno and Galileo are used to disclose the dogma of the Catholic Church concerning ETI. Quotations from the Bahá'í Writings are given to disclose the exotheology of the Bahá'í Revelation.
