@secondson saidHere is why it makes no sense. Trillions and trillions of planets and yet God limited life to just one.
No it's not. You may think so, but only because it fits your speculations and opinionated narrative.
Why the other planets?
And please stop saying speculations as though that wasn't the bedrock of religions the world over, including your own.
@sonship saidIs that it?
Out of a thousand ingredients ONE crucial ingredient needed for the first automobile:
Henry Ford.
@ghost-of-a-duke saidAll "religion" is is bulldung.
With respect, religion is speculation.
Earth is an amazing planet, but it isn't unique. Neither are we.
We are unique because we were created in the image and likeness of God.
Whether there are other planets with life on them is purely a matter dreamscape imaginings. There's not a smidgen of evidence to the contrary.
@ghost-of-a-duke saidThen let's make some sense. Answer this question if you think you know the answer.

Can God create a universe large enough to contain Him?

@secondson saidI don't believe in a God.

I can imagine one but how do I know where the parameters are? I could answer yes to your question or no.
@ghost-of-a-duke saidI get it. You don't believe God exists, but you can imagine one. That's fair.
I don't believe in a God.
I can imagine one but how do I know where the parameters are? I could answer yes to your question or no.
The question isn't fair. If the universe isn't infinite, then of course it couldn't contain an infinite God, but even if the universe was infinite it still couldn't contain God.
God exists in eternity and everywhere at once. Man cannot imagine parameters for God.
One needn't believe in God to understand the logic in that.
@ghost-of-a-duke saidI don't need, nor have I used 'biblical evidence' to formulate by 'sound reasoning' that an argument for life existing on other planets is made with/by/through pure speculation and theoretical postulations without a shrewd of evidence.
Sound reasoning with regards to known facts and reality is not reliant on biblical evidence. ((And often flies in the face of it).
You lose the argument.
@secondson saidThe bible says there is life on other planets. God, the angels and all the beings created by God [the are many types, not just angels], must be living somewhere. They are not floating around in deep space. They live on planets somewhere in the universe.

Add that the the fact that God creates beings. God rested from his creation for one day. He must have gotten back to creation in some other galaxy soon after he finished with planet Earth, and he has been doing this for billons of years.
Your mind is too small to understand all that.
@secondson saidArchangels, angels, cherubims, seraphims, Satan, evil sprirts, not floating about in the empty void of space. They are living on planets all over the universe
No it doesn't.
@secondson saidDo you actually believe astrology is a science?
Fact is, according to astrological science, the earth sits in a unique position in our galaxy that's makes observation of the entire universe possible.
