All the other planets around our sun are sterile.

like all clean things, except Earth it has many living things just like 'off' food.

I don't think 'we' (living things) are negative but maybe unsterile objects are misunderstood by to many people.

Hug some mould today and kiss your toilet tomorrow, it's not thier fault it's just the way this unsterile planet has made them.

And thats the truth.

If ignorance is bliss you must be ecstatic!!!

For instance how can it be sterile and have living things?

Organic compounds containing carbon and hydrogen form the building blocks of all life on Earth.

This material occurs within tiny spheres of carbonate minerals in both the Martian and Earth rocks and is closely associated with the iron oxide mineral magnetite.

The organic material formed in the rocks when volcanoes erupted under freezing conditions. During cooling, magnetite acted as a catalyst to form organic compounds from fluids rich in carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O). This event occurred under conditions where no forms of life existed.

A cloud of very heavy ions has been found 1000km above Titan’s surface.

They are complex organic molecules formed from methane and nitrogen when exposed to intense sunlight, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH’s) and similar compounds containing nitrogen. They gradually form more and more complex molecules – reaching masses of 8,000 times that of a single hydrogen atom.

These molecules sink towards the surface, forming a group of compounds named ‘tholins’. Tholins were first observed in a 1953 experiment that demonstrated that organic molecules could be formed from inorganic precursors. As such, they may provide the building blocks from which life forms.

surprisingly short segments of DNA, life's molecular carrier of genetic information, could assemble into several distinct liquid crystal phases that "self-orient" parallel to one another and stack into columns when placed in a water solution. Life is widely believed to have emerged as segments of DNA- or RNA-like molecules in a prebiotic "soup" solution of ancient organic molecules.

Therefore it has been proven already that other planets are not sterile and there is every reason to beleive that there are other life forms out there. Nasa found microbes on an early space shot that went into space for days and survived in the vacuum and cold of space to return healthy and live to Earth.

You do not have to be well educated to understand simple science and all you have to do is read, even a mediocre, paper to see these discoveries announced.

We don't know all other planets are sterile. We also don't know if life was a property the Earth developed or of it came from microbes on comet tails (for example).

All planets are sterile, as far as we know, because none of them are capable of supporting anything like life as it exists on this planet.
