If you're asking about my opinion of whether life exists on other planets, I think it's likely that there was/is/will be life throughout the universe. Until we run into some ET life forms we'll not have any data to make a reasonable guess as to how common life might be though... :think:
So did you answer "yes" or "maybe"?

We weren't asked "Is there Life....."

The question was: "Do you "believe there is Life......"

It seems to me that the only possible answers are 'Yes' and 'No'. There is no maybe.

Sorry, seemed an appropriate quote, given the topic.

At least 17 people here disagree with you.

Why can't someone believe that there might be life on planets?

The question was about beliefs.

Do you believe there is life on other planets?

Possible answers given:

Yes I believe.

No I don't believe.

Maybe I believe. <------This is the one that doesn't make sense. Either you believe it or you don't. How can you 'Maybe Believe' something?

I think I voted "yes", as in "Yes, I believe", but I'm not reasonably certain... :)

No, unless you consider California another planet. Otherwise the only other thing I have to say is, "Show me." Just like UFOs.

As far as the poll goes... I went with a definite maybe. :chuckle: "After all, Mr. President, it's a big-a** sky." Sorry, I couldn't resist the Armageddon quote.

I can't say yes, because I don't believe we have much in the way of evidence of alien life, but there's certainly plenty of places in which it could be hiding.

Pretty much. Aside from my misguided theological remarks from quite some time back I stand by my observations earlier in the thread...

What's the saying? The best evidence intelligent life exists is that it has never tried to contact us.

There is life on this planet...why not on at least a few other planets? Obviously, I can't be sure, so I voted "maybe." Another issue here is whether life has existed in the past or will exist in the future on other planets. :think: We may never know...
