timestatic@feddit.org 6 days agoWhy do you have to know for sure to counter your claim? I am not 100% certain but I think it is likely givern the circumstances for life and the vastness of our universe. But I don’t claim to know for sure. I don’t think just because we want to feel special does this have to mean we’re the only planet with life in the universe

Yeah, that was kind of my point. You don’t know for sure and I don’t know for sure. You’re guessing there is other life because you guestimate that the probability of life emerging is high enough for it. We don’t know what that probability is. I’m guessing it’s actually so low it happened only once. We’ve seen huge portion of the universe already but no signs of life. For now most people prefer your theory but as time passes my theory becomes more and more likely.
