So , let me get this straight. If we were to drift away from our sun, every phase of all life on earth would be destroyed yet we are supposed to believe that myriads of no sun planets drifting around would be havens for life???

I suspect there would still be life around deep sea vents and anywhere else warm enough to support bacterial life. So far the deepest holes we've drilled in the earth's crust have shown that bacteria survives there.

Without the massive influx of energy at the poles, which we get from a magnetic induction process made possible by the Magnetic field of the Earth and the Magnetic output of the Sun, the core of our planet would grow cold.

Don't tell anyone, but it is changes in the Sun's magnetic field that affect the temperature and therefore movement of magma, movement of the crust, and are the reason the core is hot.

Mars, for example, has no magnetic field, and it's core is cold. As far as we know. There are no volcanoes, active or dead, on Mars.
