Quote:Or is it because we don't believe that in a universe that has 1 billion galaxies with a billion stars in each that your sky daddy (not mummy (typical religious sexism)) picked this one for life.
The universe is estimated to have around 125 billion galaxies, and a galaxy can contain more than 700 sextillion stars (700,000,000,000,000,000,000,000), not to mention the number of planets orbiting those stars. Times that huge number by 125 billion and that should give you some idea of just how many planets are out there. Statisticaly speaking, the chance of there being life on other planets are extremely high.
I love science.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
