Hmmm....couldn't resist checking out the Metrodorus of Chios quote.
The funny thing is, if you look at nut sites, like aliensrhere.com or starwarsisreal.com you find the quote which was presented.
But, when you try to find that quote on university sites a somewhat different translation emerges.
I'd love to know what the line directly preceding was. Might give us some "context" ( to steal a word that xtians use without understanding.)

Quote:Metrodorus of Chios, a disciple of Epicurus, wrote, "It would be strange if a single ear of corn grew in a large plain or were there only one world in the infinite."
