Do you think we are not alone in universe? I realize that it's purely theoretical, but there is a fat chance that somewhere in the univerese there was a biologocal evolution process parallel to ours, no? I just wanna hear some opinions

Of course there are, u are being completely naive if u think we are all alone. There are millions of planets in our galxy alone.

it's a question of perspective. we used to believe that the world was flat until we found out that it wasn't. we used to believe that the earth was the center of the solar system, until that was disproved.

the church has done a very good job of making us believe that we are 'alone', and until we have evidence, we cannot 'disprove that. but as our knowledge and understanding of the cosmos grows, so does our position of importance in it fade.

we now know that we live on a planet orbiting an ordinary yellow star, in an ordinary spiral arm, in an ordinary galaxy, in an ordinary group of galaxies.

there is nothing about us, other than the fact that our atoms have evolved to the point where they can consider themselves that is not ordinary about our place in the cosmos.

how naive would it be for us to think that we are the only life forms anywhere in the observable universe that have ever existed? the problem of time is very relevant, because WHEN life exists is as crucial to IF it exists if we are ever to hope to have contact with another civilisation.

in terms of the the earth's own geologic history, humans have only been around and have possessed technology capable of communications in a blink of an eye... the same is true for other worlds and civilisations. we both have to be around at the same time, or at least be able to observe evidence of each other's technology.

Covering all the evidence, or in reality, lack there off aside from spurious eyewitness testimony. I feel confident in saying we have never been visited by Extra terrestrial life.
On the other hand, in the vastness of space, I would say that the probability that there is other life out there, indeed intelligent life is extremely high.
Why haven't we heard from them?
It's also possible that we are the most advanced form of life.
Scary thought.

Have you heard of the Fermi Paradox? If not it asks the question if the Universe is so vast and old, why haven't we seem evidence of aliens like radio broadcasts, probes, spaceships, etc. Personally I believe there are aliens, but the important question is how advanced are they, and do humans have enough commonality with them to exchange ideas and iteract with them.

We can't be. It's impossible to think that there are no other planets that can develop and sustain life. As a matter of fact, I believe scientists have recently discovered a planet like ours, not to far away, in the early stages to be a second earth. Look it up.

I think most intelligent people realize the great possibility that we are not alone in this vast universe.
