There's no way we can be alone in this universe. It can't be explained how huge universe is so there's a big possibility that universe is endless (always growing, I can't explain it myself). So how can we be alone, even if universe isn't endless? How can Earth be the only planet out of trillions others that has life on it? I can say it without any doubt that there are thousands of other life forms besides us, non-intelligent, like us and far more intelligent.
We can't be alone, can we? If we were then what is the point of life?
Huh? The point of life is what you want it to be. It could be finding your "one true love" and living the remaining days with him/her and eventually have 2 kids, one boy and one girl, boy being the older one (to protect his little sister from straying to the wrong path), and eventually die knowing that you had a good life, or finding a key to immortality and not die, that's cool too.

The chance of life ocurring ona planet is one to the power of a guite big number. The earth is a bunch of accidents that make up a place to live on peacefully.
And yet...do you realize just how big the universe is? Not only that, but we have three places in our solar system alone besides Terra that had that rare chance of sustaining life, under a slightly different circumstance. Even if the chance is slimmer than the Powerball, the universe is immeasurable enough to gamble those chances, just enough, so that at least one planet besides Terra could be able to hold fertile life.
But who said the life had to be intelligent? It can be microbes, fungi, plants that project out of the ground, toilet-wielding rat monkeys; it doesn't matter, so long as something is actually alive!
I believe that there has to be some type of other life out there in the universe.. People don't realize how huge the universe actually is.. You can never know.. even if it's in the same galaxy.

Yeah as long as it's made up of some type of cell(s).. then it' considered living :P
Technically no we are not they've found germs and things like that out there LOL ;D but the universe is so VAST that i really dont think we could be alone
THIS SITE CAN BURN IN HELLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sites do not have souls. =]
As for the topic, who can say? the universe is, like, waaaaaay flipping huge, I doubt we'll ever see even a small fraction of its entirety. I like to think there is something out there, but not near Earth.
Tom no need to add position 69 and a bunch of other cuss words. Anyways if there is another "living" planet out there I don't think we'll find it soon.

I actually wanted to say that but I hit the Submit button to soon.

Now multiply that big number by the chance that cells will appear on a planet that is sustanable for one form of life or another. That is because something inteligent dosn't have to be made up of cells.
Even with all the chance things that have to happen for life to occur, the universe is so vast, that the chances of it NOT happening somewhere else is almost impossible.

Many people make it sound like the chances of it happening are so probable that when we actually do our best to look for life we never find any. I understand that our knowledge of how vast the universe is vs. how far we can peer into it makes sense, but some people can easily say that we're special and to be honest, I think its a valid point. There are already some 'under speculation' planets that would take 23940329840932840329843280492830492834093284023984 years to get to (so its downright useless to consider them as it is) -- But what if they have conditions like earth and no life? The scientific chances of life existing on a planet are quite high if you can find A) Water and B) the right temperature (Carbon being a given in the universe) -- but then why is mars red dust metal??
