I've recently had a thought about Jesus' ability to walk on water. In science class we've been studying density and a thought came to me, If the gods were aliens from another planet it is possible that they would have a density lighter than water but heavier than air? We have a density heavier than air and water so we sink in both, but things from another planet have been formed to a different environment. Does this make sense to other people, any one have any other explanations relating to the gods being aliens that would explain their "godly powers"?

Well if that were the case, then how was Christ able to die under his own weight?

Crucifixion kills people by extending the arms. Their own weight forced the arms painfully above the chest, making it difficult to breathe.

Hm.. you're right sorry. xp Do you have any other ideas on what would cause his powers if he were just a being from another planet? Thanks for disproving my idea so I dont have to try to think about that anymore xd

People can easily distort and lie about people to make them seem more important than they really are. Did he walk on water during his life? I highly doubt it.

If aliens were to have come down and were able to walk on water, that does not make it a power, it's just natural for them/ability/.

Crucifixion kills people by extending the arms. Their own weight forced the arms painfully above the chest, making it difficult to breathe. First off he didn't die from being crucified he died by a soldiers spear. And secondly being lighter then water but heavier then air would still mean being crucified would have the same result. He was able to walk on water but he stayed on the ground from gravity. Thus a cruscifix would still work how it was intended. And as for it just being the messiah peter also walked on water with him.

shesh, why does everyone try to pin every thing on aliens these days? it's like the dark ages and witch craft! Does the thought not occur to you that humans have a tenancy to make things up to comfort themselves? humans have to believe that there's some kind of a purpose, a life after death. survival instinct's too strong to think other wise, some of us would go mad. even if we know we've just made something up off the top of our heads, it still comforts us, and then years and years down the road after it's been mistranslated a couple dozen times people don't even have to convince themselves they didn't just make it up anymore because now it's so old it has to be true.
other than that though yea, you've got a perfectly valid point. except for the fact that jesus looked human and unless he had some hind of perception filter then that wouldn't be possible, and the fact that a humanoid, complex organism with such a ... i don't really know what the opposite of dense is... structure probably would be too fragile to handle our gravity and something awful would happen to its organs.
that's just an arguably educated guess, mind you.

oh and i read somewhere that the arabic or hebrew or something word for walk was the same as or similar to the word for lie or sit or float or something, which in combination with the dead sea's high salt level meaning you can just sort of lie down on top of it and a few dozen translations could easily be the root of the whole walk on water thing. never read the bible myself, but it could have been meant to be just something in passing getting from one major thing from another like "oh yea, and he went for a swim" rather than a major even in and of itself
