Well water for the Martians?

Word comes from NASA this week that it has seen evidence of water trickling and gushing on Mars. This news adds to the speculation that there may once have been, or may still be, life on the red planet, given that whatever life chows down on, it will probably need some H2O to wash it down with.

I don't know about you, but the prospect of any trace of life being present elsewhere in the universe fills me with awe. There are those who would probably be upset that life isn't unique to Earth, but I'm not one of them.
To believe that God made the whole universe just to house our own fallen selves is a kind of arrogance that God's been trying to cure us of since the Tower of Babel.

It's comforting to hear that we might have a lovely planet like Mars to flee to when needed. Meanwhile I'm not eating at sushi bars any time soon.
