Anyone watching the 60 minutes Hubble thing?
Billions upon billions of galaxies....how can anyone think there's no other life out there?

The astronomical odds don't help my opinion on it. However we hardly have any kind of acceptable sample size for life on planets. Mars had bacteria, so that's the only other example we've got to create an idea of what's required for it.
Other life I would almost expect, but other intelligent life at the same time as us would be pretty incredible

@FormerChild why would it be pretty incredible?
@hippyjoe1955 Wasn't there bacterial remains found there in ice cores?

It is entirely possible that there is life out there and it is entirely possible that there is not life out there. Life as we know it took some very very carefully crafted criteria for it to come into being. In fact someone has said the odds against life's spontaneous arrival is greater than the number of atoms in the know universe. How he figured out how many atoms there are in an infinite universe he never said.

The probability that intelligent life exists in all those galaxies is still pretty remote ... but a chance does exist

Because people have different opinions.
