No, I don't think so. Our existence does not prove alien existence like many people believe. That's like assuming "I have a Rubik's cube in my hand so obviously someone else out of 7 billion people also has a Rubik's cube in their hand." While that statement is very probable, it can still be wrong.
Now the reason I believe we are alone is simple; YouTube told me. |
Raise that number to about 100 billion. And that's just within our own galaxy. Most statistics estimate at least 100 billion galaxies. And that's just within the observable universe. |
Still doesn't mean there's life out there. If you roll a 6 sided dice 31 times in a row, how many possible sequences are there? 1.326x10^24. Do you know how many planets are estimated to be in the universe? Around 10^24. Saying "life must be on other planets because we have it and there are so many planets" is like saying "other sequences must be as prestigious as rolling 31 sixes in a row because there are so many sequences."

No, of course thst doesn't prove there's alien life. You can't prove anything based off statistics. That should go without saying. What statistics can do is tell us what's probable or likely. |
Yes, but I'm saying the stats don't actually predict alien life. You're only looking at the upper layer of the problem without factoring in the rest of the equation.
