Planets, planetary systems, and galactic regions that are as friendly to complex life as are the Earth, the solar system, and our region of the Milky Way are probably extremely rare. If so, the Earth could be the only place in the Milky Way, and perhaps even in the entire universe, featuring complex life.

Not in another galaxy. But according to a subset of string theory, called M Theory, there is an infinite number of universes. So there may be one in which there is a planet earth with human beings just like us. There may even be more than just the two.

Yes, I think that there are more than only 2 earth-like planets. I feel that the beings living on them might be more advanced than those that come from another earth-like planet. I also think that it is possible for there to be more than just the one universe that we live in; we just can't see it. I think it some people are arrogant to think that we are the only ones in this universe.

Hi. Earth is a rare and precious planet, although probably not unique. Human are a rare and precious species, and may indeed be unique. So, not likely.

Yes, I do believe that there are two Earths, at least two , maybe more. But in one of them , you and I are married and we had 4 children, and two of those children were able to travel the stars.

yes because there is 9 planets on our solar system, thousands of solar systems in our galaxy, millions of galaxies in our universe so there is a LOT of planets in our universe and how can we be the only living thing?

There probably are other planets with life, but they're probably nothing like us. We're all carbon based, they could be any element. We're built symmetrically, they don't need to be. They could eat and reproduce in different ways. They're probably living some way that we would never imagine.

If the universe is infinite there is a 100% chance we have a duplicate. If not the chance falls to zero.

I do not believe in parallel universes. But I do believe there is other intelligent life out there. Just too far away to have contacted yet, IMO
