Only for those incredibly conceited and not well educated. There are over one billion billion stars out there. If only 1 % of them have planets and only 1% of those planets could contain life, sentient beings, then we are the only life in 100,000,000,000,000 possibilities. What kind of ego would this require to believe?

I wouldn't bet on it.
The problem is that the universe is so big and the speed of light so slow -- we'll probably never have contact with other sentient beings.
Imagine a world covered in water, with several islands at least 10,000 miles apart -- and, for some reason, it is not possible to build a boats or radios of any kind.
The islanders would never know about those on other islands.

On Earth humans are not the only sentient beings. Animals have a consciousness too.

How could anyone answer this intelligently? No one knows what is out there...and those who claim they do are deluded or lying
If you use the Bible to try and prove your argument, I'll dig up a copy of Dick and Jane.
My fiction is better than yours

Quite possibly, but there are an infinite number of universes.

We don't know for sure yet.
The statistics say no, but there are a lot of assumptions made in the equation (Drake's Equation, btw)

No. To think otherwise proves that you live in a world bound by limits.
