If there is life on this planet, don't you think there could be life on another?

Life like ours requires three things, time, chemistry and environment.
These thing are all abundant throughout the universe so life has to have emerged millions or billions of time in all parts of the universe.

Certainly yes. We are not alone, not at all. The right conditions to live exist in our planet. Similar conditions can exist theoretically on some other planet somewhere else in this gigantic universe.
As one responder rightly said, it is more of a probability in this vast space.

Living in space has long been accomplished by Man.
One such example is the Soviet Mir sent by Russia. It is launched up into space in 1986 and its short lifespan ended just 3 years ago in 2004. It was a remarkable achievement of human intelligence and it broke records in human space flight.
Human settlements are spared from any limitations imposed by planets such as temperature. But one downside is that it will require more resources as everything has to be done artificially.

The "Rare Earth" hypothesis says that complex life is rare.
Yes, there is quite probalby alien life out there in the universe. However, chances of there being any life like ours anywhere near our system are amazingly low.

you may not believe in god, but i'm just stating my opinion.
why else would god make all those other galaxies and solar systems? maybe it doesn't say in the bible that there is life on other planets, but god knows that people have common sense!! there are tons of other galaxies that we can see through the Hubble telescope, and even more that we can't see! why else would the universe be so ginormous?

I hope so, I have been disappointed and bored with the people on this planet for quite sometime.

Yes, yes, a thousand times yes. Spread out over trillions of miles, but YES!
It ain't science, it's mathematical probability time.

yes, something hit earth and bounced off with life on it that evolved in other ways.

Please check out 'Drake equation' on wikipedia.com for the most scientific explanation of this, as I can't explain very simply.
