It is statistically improbable for the universe to be devoid of life.

I doubt they've visited us though.

Even if they have the ability to travel between stars at will, there are a lot of stars and ours isn't particularly intriguing from a distance.

Get real. You're saying that an alien race (whose technology is thousands of years more advanced then ours) travels millions of light years to our small and insignificant planet, and the first thing on their minds is to kill and enslave everything? I seriously doubt that for obvious reasons...

What if it's not thousands of years more advanced?

What if it's dozens?

What if they have the technology to travel between stars but not the technology to stop a thermonuclear blast? (if such a technology is even possible) Humans are armed and dangerous, it's conceivable that an alien race may consider us a threat to their security, especially if we appear to be on the verge of building our own FTL ships (or worse, copying theirs)

Actually, Slyth, it's impossible for the universe to be devoid of life. We exist and inhabit it. We are life.

People. Think for a second.

We are aliens.

But anyway, it is nearly impossible for us to be the only life in the universe(s). No one at my school believes in them for one main reason: The Book of Genesis.

I don't like overly religious people.

I think there real, I mean come on there cant be only one planet with life on it.

Yes I agree, In The Book of Genesis it says nothing about us being the only Creatures he made.People are seeing something or somebody.

^this. Think of how many planets there are, and having only one with life on is EXTREMELY unlikely.

What do the rest of y'all think? Yes I mean you the person that is reading this right now!

Ancient Aliens. I have seen them.

My Great Grandfather from Wales lived to be over 100 yo.

He could pass for most pictures of grays, but that might have been 95 years of smoking and 70 working in coal mines.

I believe in aliens, and I thought that they were going to come in 2012, but I knew that it almost was definately not going to happen. But I do believe that aliens have surely visited Earth. If not, they are out there. The truth IS out there. ( Creepy music plays )

So, I think that it is impossible for there to be no life somewhere else in the universe. It may not be spacefaring, however, and may just be animals, un-sentient. I think something is out there, however. Tell me what you think.

Still, that's only "I believe..." and "I think..." and so forth. Perhaps true, perhaps not, but I'm rather waiting for proof, not belief. There are so many possibilities, and that's why I'm waiting to see what may turn up.
