religion aside i think it would exceptionally arrogant from a statistical point of view to think that there wouldn't be life on other planets and by "life" i mean more than just amoebas. There are something like 100,000,000,000 galaxies that we can see and each of those contains like a google solar systems and we are arrogant enough to think that we are the only one out of all of that that has life on it? pffffft!
