Try reading the Fermi Paradox. Then get back to me.

Oh stop with the Fermi Paradox BS.

Ya think he’s some kind of super human, super genius being, who is able to see into every planet, every star system, and every galaxy in the entire universe, do some math and say, “We are all alone”...lol

Do you have any idea how asinine and arrogant that is?

I think Fermi might well be a smart man. Figures do not lie, but liars always figure. Anyone can cast a slant on the facts, remember? “if the gluv done fit you gotta acquit?”

I also think if we start with the premise that we are still cavemen with caveman tools we are probably closer to the truth. There are far greater paradoxes of space and time travel but the chapters are not organized that way. Try reading the Bible.

To think of all the planets that exist and then suggest that we are the only one that has life is a little narrow minded and short sighted.

For someone who's so cocksure about himself, you would do well to take your own advice and actually read what's up on that wikipedia link you posted. Suffice it to say that the first sentence of that article says all that need be said to refute the position you think the Fermi Paradox supports (which it does not); to wit: "The Fermi paradox (Fermi's paradox or Fermi-paradox) is the apparent contradiction between high estimates of the probability of the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations and the lack of evidence for, or contact with, such civilizations."(Emphasis added).

The last time I checked, the term "apparent" in that context would mean that the so-called Fermi Paradox is a state of affairs that appears to be, but is not, a paradox or contradiction.
