So according to you our technology is the very most advanced in the entire Universe? Lol, must be wonderful to be so all knowing as you.

No one knows how many planets there are in the Universe but in order to convey a sense of the enormity of the Universe it has been suggested the number of stars (suns) in the Universe surpass the number of grains of sand on every beach on Earth.

Even this mind boggling thought does not include the planets which may be in orbit around the stars.

Rather then taking the position we exist alone in the unimaginably huge Universe I take the position it is simply impossible to the greatest degree possible that we are alone.

If God created man gave us this world to inhabit, why did he create those uncounted gazillion stars and planets? Where does it say God created man in only one place?

Even taking religion out of the argument it is as near a mathematical certainty imagineable life exists in other places other than our planet.

I have no idea why that would be a mathematical certainty. It's been shown there are over 20 very finely tuned environmental factors (temperature, gravitational pull, radiation levels, etc.) necessary for life here. The odds that even 10 of these factors would randomly occur on any other planet is a number larger than every grain of sand on earth times 10 to the 20th power.

Without God actually creating the right conditions somewhere else the odds are infinitesimal and in fact if it were anything else we would say zero. The universe itself has a zero percent chance of occurring on it's own to support any life. Science had to latch on to a multi-verse theory to explain it.
