My mother has always said how can the earth be so perfect without the hand of God? The perfect distance from the sun, a few million in and we would fry a few million out we would freeze. The gravity and the atmosphere are ideal for life. I say that is exactly WHY there is life...because this planet evolved in such a perfect condition and life developed BECAUSE it was perfect. Life certainly isn't as common as Star Trek implies, and a Class "M" (Earth-like) planet is probably extremely rare. Maybe we are "it" (that would be a bummer), because this planet was such an astronomically odd occurance. Maybe life was accidental, and out of 12 billion light years of expanding space...Earth is unique. What do you think?
