And the LORD God formed man ...breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. Genesis 2:7
"NASA’s most specialized life-hunting
laboratory to date, the rover Perseverance, successfully landed on the
Red Planet. 
It’s a great feat of scientific ingenuity and achievement.
Now that it is safely there, its mission begins as it rolls down what
are supposedly ancient riverbeds in search of an answer to the question,
“is there, or was there, life on Mars?”
For many scientists, it is more than just a hope that microbial life
will be found in clays on Mars.
Some hope this will give insight into
our own supposed evolutionary origins.
For example, a recent popular science article
quotes planetary scientist Christopher Carr who says, “There’s a number
of things that have come to light only recently, which strongly support
at least the plausibility of an origin of life on Mars and its
potential transfer to Earth.”
---In other words, your great-great-great
(many more greats!) grandmother might have been a Martian—a microbial
Martian anyway.
Q: Now why do researchers like Carr believe this?
A: Well, because the
supposed conditions on the early Earth weren’t ideal for producing life.
So they believe perhaps the conditions on Mars were better, and life
managed to get from the red planet to our blue planet, where it gained a
foothold and eventually evolved into all the varied lifeforms we have
today.
It’s just storytelling to try to rescue a false worldview." AIG
