I believe there may have been life on Mars once, or at least the water necessary to most life, as we know it.
I believe there have to be other lifeforms out there, yes. There should be things that are intelligent, especially in the vast universe, but there at least have to be amoebas and bacteria-sustaining planets. Maybe there's a planet covered in plants, but there has to be life out there. Maybe there's even a planet where creatures and plants, as we know them, don't exist, but there are creatures that live off of other resources, and don't need oxygen or H20.
:) Hope I helped.

There is no doubt in my mind that there are other life forms among us today. The Universe is so old that it is absolutely insane to believe that there aren't other forms of life. I'll even take that a step further and say that many of those forms of life are intelligent.
I think that it is very possible that there once was intelligent life on mars many many years ago. Before earth was inhabitable. There is even scientific proof now that there once was life on mars, it also appears that there were oceans as well. Imagine what the planet earth would look like if it were stripped of its oceans and all living things... Sort of like mars huh?

Sure, they are just smart enough to stay far far away from us.
We are in the unpopular backwaters of a little galaxy known as the milky way; for all intents and purposes the trailer park of galaxies (that is from all the beings on Ursa Beta minor, not my opinion).

One more viewpoint.
Have you noticed how science articles talk about "life as we know it"?
Scientists know that life may well exist based not only on the basis of organic chemistry (carbon, hydrogen, oxygen - appropriate temperature range, etc.) but may exist at extreme temperatures using other chemical compounds that mimic organic chemistry. (Maybe very hot where liquefied sulfur compounds may act as water does in our temperature range).
That is why the caveat "as we know it " is added.

Yes there are other life forms. We would be fools if we were to think that we were the only forms of life that God created. They just haven't reveiled themselves yet.

I believe in the "tenth of one percent" rule.
Take 10,000,000,000 (ten billion) stars.
If one tenth of one percent of them had planets, there'd be 10,000,000 planets out there.
If one tenth of one percent of those planets were capable of sustaining some form of life, there'd be 10,000 planets capable of supporting life.
If one tenth of one percent of those life-capable planets had life on them, then there'd be 10 planets with life.
There's more than 10 billion stars out there, so, yeah, I think there's life somewhere else in the universe.
