Take a look at the Drake equation. Base on the laws of probability alone, gives us a way of predicting if life is out there.

The laws of probability only come into play when you multiply the variables together, and that doesn't change the danger of the Garbage In/Garbage Out.

Really? What IS the probability of abiogenesis? What are the precursors necessary for this probability to hold? Do tell.
