re: How would the discovery of life on other planets affect us?

What spurned me to think about this was the recent seemingly "proof" from NASA that the universe did indeed form from a large cosmic event some almost 14 billion years ago. Seems that believers might find that evidence compelling that a larger designer set in motion a universe. What is also intriguing is the concept of multiple universes from the "bubble" effect during rapid cosmic expansion

That confirmation makes it almost certain, in my view, that life of some kind exists elsewhere in the universe(s). Now that life may so distant that we never make contact. Think about the vastness involved.

I don't see how it should affect religious belief one way or the other.
