Quite the contrary, I am confident the universe is teeming with life.
I concur. Also, alien life, especially intelligent life, would negate the many Christian's belief that life on Earth is special.
To my way of thinking, the idea that we, on this tiny speck of a world, would be visited by advanced extraterrestrial life, presumably for no purpose more nefarious than to watch our television and cuddle up to our politicians, is ludicrous.
I would also agree with this statement, provisionally. Since an alien intelligence would have likely developed under environmental pressures, the chance that any alien intelligence is benevolent is slim. More probable is that the alien intelligence would use their advanced weaponry to begin colonization of this new world with such obviously primitive beings. After all, how intelligent could the people on this planet be if some of them still believe that their planet is circled by the sun. Since this has not occurred, this is why all of you should not believe that an alien intelligence has visited your planet.
The provision is that humans might be considered something akin to chimps on tv, that is, entertainment or something to be studied. Perhaps aliens are right there on the moon peering through telescopes watching the wackiness that is humanity and laughing their asses off on the extraterrestrial version of couches or flying around drunk trying to see if they can scare the local population into believing something ridiculous, like crop circles are a message from ET or abducting humans in an attempt to answer questions that the alien inteligence may have about Life, the Universe, and Everything. But that's ridiculous.
And that's why you, gentle humans, must never believe that aliens are visiting earth and watching the planet.
Ever.
