Well with about 1/2 a trillion stars in our galaxy alone, and god only knows how many galaxys in the 360 billion lightyears worth of space that is our universe the odds are something is out there.
But the universe is 360+billion years old, thats far more than enough time for a civilisation to rise to its peak and then die out, also with the sheer scale of the universe even if there are a billion civilisations out there, the chances of finding one are slim, and the chances of physically meeting one even slimmer. I remember a group of scientists got together to come up with the best way to search or find alien life, they decided a radio signal at the freq. of hydrogen, being the most abundant thing in existance, would be a good idea, eventually they found received just such a signal but when they checked its origin location there were no star systems (we can see) in that location, so it could have been a probe? Or a single thats millenia old and the star has died out and expanded all its light before the signal got to us? Or who knows what else, theres a lot of cool stuff out there to do with 'the search'. Its quite scary how puny and insignificant we really are, but what could be even more scary than a galaxy teaming with life is one thats not... what if we are the only life in the universe? What if if we die out thats it? And the whole of exiastance will be without life for the rest of time?

And what if we are the only life? Enjoy the peace! Haha. We are the special God's creation, and that's enough for me. ^^
But remember the existence of angels and fallen angels. Maybe they are not material, but they live. Also, who tell us that God didn't create another life being in the trillion stars and planets He also created?

I dont nessaserily buy into the God stuff, maybe just because I wasnt brought up into it and look at life a different way a more logical way I like to think but then those who do belive would never agree so Id rather not argue about god vs. the big bang (or intergrations between the two). I do sometimes think it would be nice to have faith in an after life but I dont, after all, heaven is a far nicer concept for death than Die-gone-game over, 1 more insignificant life existing like a spec of dust with a lifespan like gone like a spark in a fire. But then I guess thats favorable to hell

Maybe you should have put a song to the video that had actual words to sing along to...just a thought.

Totally agree and to quote Terry Pratchett
In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded
