if darwin's theory was correct, then there would be life on other planets. if life can adapt and survive on this planet, then why can it not on others? don't give the "perfect conditions" excuse, because the odds of all of the factors coincidentally combining to make life is completely ridiculous. Score 1 for Jesus

5,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Galaxies,
100 billion known stars in our galaxy, 100 billion known galaxys in our universe, potentially more that just one universe, even if the chances of a planet being able to sustain life were 100 thousand billion to one, millions of planets in this galaxy alone would have it, so if you think about it, life is nowhere near as rare as its made out to be.
...the odds of all of the factors coincidentally combining to make life is completely ridiculous. your God coming along, any closer to concrete evidence?
If Darwin´s theory is correct, no life based on Carbon can live in any planet known in the solar system except the Earth.
A. There might be life on other planets. Just because we haven't found it yet doesn't mean anything.
Who says there isn't life on other planets? If creationism is correct, why did god give us a universe this big and put all life on one fragile planet?
Talk about a waste of space.
There is probably life on other planets somewhere in the Universe.
Btw, "darwin's theory" is about adaptation, not about how life started.
The odds for all of the factors coincidentally combining to make life on Earth is 1:1.
> because the odds of all of the factors coincidentally combining to make life is completely ridiculous
Yes, if you were to posit that at the moment of the Big Bang. But since life has actually come about here, then the probability of it doing so is 1.
Edit: Darn, beaten to it by Swede.
The odds of Earth like planets are low but you have to remember that the universe has an amazing amount of galaxies like ours (anyone who has not seen the Hubble Deep Field exposure check it out, in a random starless piece of space they tracked a three day exposure where every point of light are galaxies we'd never seen before)
Sagan did a formula over 15 years ago, a long pesemistic formula that leaned against the chance on every factor. It still came up with 100s of thousands of Earth like planets. Since then astronomy has discovered planetary bodies are more common than thought in Sagans already biased against it formula
If Darwin's theory was correct, why have humans still got stupid brains? Why have the chimps not taken over already?
Oh, and there will be a day when the chimps overthrow us, it was in the planet of the apes scrip(tures)
Xenomorphs. Silicon -based lifeforms.
I suggest you never watch the films "Apollo 18" or "The Andromeda Strain", if you know what's good for you.
Admittedly somewhat (but not a lot) off-topic, but with regards to the fascinating issue of alien life, I can recommend the book "Evolving the Alien: The Science of Extraterrestrial Life" by Jack Cohen and Ian Stewart.
If nothing else, the title alone gets cfomsax coming and going.....

No "perfect" conditions, just a wide range of conditions. But I thought that was supposed to be YOUR flawed argument for a deity. And Darwin's evolution discusses what happened many millions of years later, but hey, if you've if you've elevated him to a high position in the "demon" hierarchy, that's fine with me.
Live has to EXIST first, dolt, in order to adapt and survive. The conditions for life must be there, too.
You just proved your own shit "argument" wrong, honey. As there are billions upon billions of planets and moons in the universe, the odds can be pretty ridiculous for it to happen on just ONE more planet.
Most sane people, however, believe that there IS life on other planets. We just haven't found any, YET.
Jesus scored? Good for him? Was it with Magdalene?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
