Hey Godzilla, you got offended earlier, I wrote back to you, there are no good Christians either, all people sin and have faults, so dont think me self righteous,
I DO NOT CLAIM TO KNOW THERE IS NOT LIFE ON OTHER PLANETS. I JUST ASKED A QUESTION.

maybe because every planet is different, don't you think? (different doe, different cookies, right?). plus, if everywhere in the universe were just like us, what a boring universe it'd be!
Evolution is the truth, but it doesn't leave behind the Intelligent Design theory. Think about it like this: 5k years ago, when people were illiterate and the Genesis was wrote, that story was the only way to explain the people about the beginning of the universe. The bible is also a pedagogic instrument (everyone leaves that behind). think of the days as millions of years, not 24 hours, and everything fits. Like Jesus and the parables, were they true or not it was not important, what was important is what he taught people through them.
Anyway, it was just a thought.

An Earth-like orbit would tend to give a planet relatively stable temperatures. This would increase the chances that any water on the planet would be able to remain in liquid form. Finding planets with liquid water is one of the key goals of astrobiology, because water is believed to be essential for life.
Because of this very Earth-like orbit, is it possible that could harbor life? At present, there’s no way to tell for sure. There is no evidence of water existing on the other planets as well. In fact, the planet is massive enough to be a gas giant resembling Jupiter, and if water was present on the planet it would most likely not resemble the bodies of water found on Earth.

Please don't ask questions like these : it shows that you haven't really studied the concept of 'evolution' which really has seven aspects, two of the more familiar being microevolution (variation within a species) and macroevolution (one species gradually changing into another species).
Evolutionists will take you to task for this question since the answer is very simple: (a) the conditions on the other planets, in our solar system, are not conducive to the development of lifeform similar to ours, and (b) nobody had investigated all the planets in the billions of other 'solar' systems out there.
Just like everyone to know that I'm a Christian.

Because life requires certain narrow parameters to survive, the right temperature, water levels etc. These do not exist on other planets.
It would have been a lot simpler for someone to just have created another planet for us that was suitable.
But that didn't happen either, did it?
The chances of life arising on any planet are extremely small, we may well be alone.

OK, I'll ask YOU a question! If god is the truth, then why isn't there life just like ours on every planet?
What is with you religious zealots that you feel compelled to ask these idiotic questions in an inane and laughable attempt to justify your beliefs?!

Evolution does not attempt to explain how life arises only how it changes. What makes you sure that other planets don't have life, we aren't even sure about the other planets in our own solar system.
If you are going to try to criticize evolution you should learn what it actually is first, not what religious zealots say that it is.

Because the other planets are still evolving

That's like asking if Christianity is the truth, why doesn't everyone believe it ?

what a silly question, tempreture and other conditions. Earth is perfect for life while other planets it isn't.

A pointlessly stupid question. Why don't we live at the bottom of the sea, or in the middle of a volcano?
