It's highly unlikely. The universe is infinite (for all we know) and there probably is another planet like ours with beings like us (or a planet unlike ours with beings nothing like us). Either one.

The term Universe refers to all the galactic matter in the immense space . Our earth is one of the planetrs spinning around the sun a small star inthe Galaxy known as Milky way. even in this galaxy ther are billions and billions of stara and tha there might be some solar system elsewher evenin our
galaxy itself . even in teh soalr system , the earht alone has life on it for the reason tehat the atmospher preveailing there is conducive to thedevelopment of thie types opf lives that we find on this earth. There are billions and abilions of similar stars and the g=alactic k=masses having eh chatracter of mutual attraction , systems similar to ours shopuld be existing lesewhr etoo. the galactic distances being immentsely great and the space being an infite ,boundless being of non-ein , having a nu,er of other galsxies also , must be having some planets in some systems similar to or evfen beter or inferior to our systems . Ther emay be systems in teh development al stage too , even our earth has takwen some billions of years to shape and develop th lives that it s=si now supporting and the life is still veolving . some such system shoule still be evolving some wher in spac e. The possibility is that there should be some , even more than onme planet conducive to te development of life in te universe . The fact that we are unable to reach all the
galaxies with in our time and ablity can not lead to a final conclusion that we ar alone in the universe. The gravitational force is some unique force unlike the magnetic force . But the possibility of any force existing as a singular force is remote . There might e some anti gravitqtional force . if and when some force of anti gravit is found out or created , it mus be possible for humans to jump from onme Galaxsy to another very quickly and then we might be in a positon to find out if tere ar anyother systems wher civilised life exists . We may also create a nw=ew earth if we can drag another planet int ehsolar syatem anmd put it on an orbit conducive to te development of life .may be some big retro racket like stuff by drilling a big shaft in some planet with potential should be made and the planetary mass moved to the right orbit to create a new world .!

No, we're not alone in the sense of other life forms existing in far off places, but what they are, what they look like, how they compare or contrast to what we know of as life, remains to be made public. Sounds like a strange answer, but the truth of what we are, know, relate to has yet to be revealed.

We see reports frequently of UFO sightings and we get the same lame responses from the gov'ts of the world as well as the scientific community explaining away what rational people have seen. There have been eye-witness accounts of close encounters of the third kind all over the world, yet for some reason, those accounts have always been dismissed. Even archeological evidence has largely been ignored. And such evidence does exist.

Very credible members of the military from America have given sworn testimony of personal observations of and experiences with ETs, but soon are told to clam up or face dire consequences. If it wasn't true then why in so many cases would military officers and enlisted personnel, as well as untold numbers of civilians, be intimidated by officials of the gov't. (sometimes under threat of death) to keep quiet?

I was in the military. I served in many diverse places. I sometimes came into contact with individuals who claimed to have a UFO experience. For some reason ET seemed attracted to our missile silos back in the 60s. There were many official reports of UFO activity around SAC bases, etc. but that info will never be made public. Why would any of the original documents concerning Rosswell still be classified now, nearly 60 years later if there was nothing to it?

The problem is as with so many other things in life today people just really don't give a rip. "So what?" That's what the general public says. They don't really want to know the truth. It's irrelevant to them. The youth today only care about their i-pods.
Matters of substance are not their concern, other than as a mild curiosity.

So, my answer to your question is: no we are not alone. But who "THEY" are or where they come from remains a mystery.

No we are not if the Bible is truly God's word
cause.. I think in Genesis or book near that chapter and also in Revelations: There are 29 outer bodies. God caused the Firmanent (Black Space) to be above the World.. we get some of it at night! I do believe in a God but I doubt the Bible is truly God's word. I think the Bible was merely written to Control the Masses
to keep us from the Powers of the Occult! This was for safety reasons rather than any other reasons. I do believe in The Holy Scrolls! I seen one in a Museum either in Timmins Ont. or Thunderbay Ont.

One cannot prove a negative, so while it's impossible to prove we aren't alone, so far we have not discovered *any* concrete evidence that there is any life beside that on earth.

Most people, scientists included, like to believe there are other forms of life in the universe, but again, there is no way to prove this. By employing the Law of Large Numbers, scientists have inferred that there is a high probability of there being other life forms in the universe, but because of the vast distances between stars, travel, much less communication, is very, very difficult.

Here is why.

The universe is VERY, VERY, VERY, VERY, VERY BIG.

But, based on our best observations, the universe does not appear to be infinite, and there does appear to be a finite amount of matter within it. Observations from the Hubble, and a lot of estimating, show that there are around 16 x 10^ 21 stars in the universe. Mathematicians at the University of Hawaii estimated the number of grains of sand on all the worlds beaches to be around 7.5 x 10^18. If we round the number of sand grains to 10^20 and round the number of stars to 10^22 then there are at least 100 stars in the universe for every grain of sand on earth. So for fun, lets say that for every hundred stars, there is one with an earth-like planet. That means one earth for every grain of sand. That's a lot of potential earths.

But LIFE is a rare thing, and intelligent life that is self-aware may be rarer still. It took 4.5 billion years (roughly 1/3 of the age of the universe) for intelligent life to evolve on Earth, and we are realistically no closer to reaching the stars today then we were a thousand years ago.

It's only within the past 75 years that we've even created messages that can leave our solar system, and it's been less time that we're able to listen for those types of messages. 75 years at the speed of light is virtually nothing in terms of our broadcasts reaching earth-like planets. It will take many, many hundreds of years for our broadcasts to start to reach even a tiny handful of the earth-like planets, and we still have no way of knowing if life exists on any of those planets, or if it's intelligent or sophisticated enough to be listening, or if it even utilizes technology that CAN listen OR, if it even CARES! If other earth-like civilizations exist, they will be faced with the exact same problems.

Scanning the heavens with radio telescopes for alien broadcasts is like walking around the world trying to find a beach, and then trying to locate a particular grain of sand.

Unfortunately, communication across interstellar distances is still the stuff of science fiction, and will remain so for many hundreds, if not thousands of years, so it's probably going to be a long time before we have a definitive answer to this question.

But I think we are probably not alone.

Not really. You see far off in the remotest parts of the universe there is another colonies of humanoid creatures. Sitting upon their beautiful world they wonder briefly about us and if we are OK. You see they sent us here because their world had grown to small and over populated. How do i know all this you might ask? Well i will tell you. My name is...What? who's there? No! It cant be not you! How did you find me! AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHGGGGGG!

I find that concept ridiculous. I am convinced that there is life on every planet in every galaxy. I just think that
God is more powerjul than any Christian I've met ever gives Him credit for.
I find it naive to believe that God's work would be so insignificant to Him that He would only add life to Earth.
Look at the size of Saturn, wouldn't it make more sense if most life was there....look at the size!
Just my humble opinion.

No you would have to be some kinda fool to think we're all alone in this universe

I seriously doubt it. But how developed, advanced or primitive would this life be. Could they have learned how to create life? What if they were our creators?
If so ,did they create us in their image?.
How would this affect religion?.
If we were made in gods image, would that mean he didn't create other beings?.
Isn't our prime objective to leave this planet in-search of other beings?. Perhaps we are not the only beings to have imagined colonising the galaxy.


Sorry, this was your question and i got a bit carried away. The first sentence is my answer lol

No, there must some other intelligent lifeform out there. The Universe in size is infinite. There must be some other planet that can support life.
