Interesting thread. Lot of great points.
There are still places on this planet left untouched and undiscovered, like the oceans, which probably harbor life we've yet to see and new species of fauna/flora are being discovered all the time because of it, so I don't think it's far fetched to believe life exists somewhere else in the galaxy. It's impossible to know if other life forms are out there without having the right capabilities (being able to travel/use space to our advantages) and in all honestly maybe it's better we haven't met them. Who knows if a better, smarter, race wouldn't just wipe us out because they can or because we're a future threat.
I think it's naive to think we're special and the only life forms to exist. Also to whoever said something like why humans wonder about aliens yet can't solve issues at home or something like that, it's because humans aren't satisfied with the knowledge we have and have to question everything, that is our nature. Just like with the dinosaurs, or pyramids or anything else, we feel the need to know why.

To those who say that they are convinced that there are other life forms in the universe,what do you base that on?
