With billions of stars, solar systems, and galaxies across this vast universe that is still expanding, is it not logical to assume that there are Earth-like planets that can sustain not just alien life but intelligent life form perhaps with much more advanced civilization than Earth? After all the Earth is just under 5 Billion years old and some parts of the Universe is far older?

We'd be idiots not to believe there were other life forms out there. OF COURSE there are other intelligent beings!

The odds are staggering that there are other intelligent life-forms 'out there'. Some of it may be much older and more evolved than we are, some much less so, (and it wouldn't take a helluva lot to be much more civilized than we are), but I have no doubt at all that there are other forms of intelligent life in the Universe.
Speculating on what they might be like is one of those endless sources of intellectual amusement ☺

I guess that would be like really asking if humans are really the smartest forms of intelligence on the planet. Considering we have only explored less then 10% of the ocean are we really the most intelligent?
The chances that we are the only life in the galaxy is slim, Considering we don't even understand the universe yet how good we venture to say we are the only life.
It's pretty selfish to think that we are the only ones here, I mean really with religion set aside, how did we get here, was it a microscopic organism that came from space and if so what other places was the same organism deposited.

My opinion on this subject would be an answer of yes their are other intelligent forms out there in the universe, but who knows if they are more advanced then us, but surely they would be different.

What makes you think we are intelligent,seriously.Anyway,I think that the universe is populated with a myriad of beings.Some I'm sure would be considered by us to be intelligent,but some probably would not even be regarded as ALIVE by us.And most likely vica versa

No, i do no longer think of we are the sole smart existence interior the universe. i do no longer know what aggorance is, yet sea mammals, i.e. dolphins and whales, are extraordinarily smart devoid of the aggorance. i'm valuable ET has a splash aggorance in him, yet those locusts from Independence Day are crammed with aggorance.

To believe that we are the only intelligence in the universe is proof that we are not the highest intelligence in the universe.

It's almost certain that there is intelligent life on other planets, but so far away we will almost certainly never meet it.

So what? Show the evidence, not mere idle speculation. Argument from necessity is a low-grade logical fallacy and proves nothing.
