Paul asked:

What would be the effect, if the existence of alien life were to be proven, on the Judeo-Christian
philosophies of God which focus on earth?

============

I'm not going to try to answer this, because I think that the science-fiction writer Phillip J. Farmer did a
wonderful job in several of his novels on just this theme. Try Night of Light; Inside Outside;the
Riverworldseries; Lovers; Dare.There's also A Case of Conscienceby James Blish.
