Life+Existence+Elsewhere?

Does life exist elsewhere In the universe? By: Micaela

It is questioned a lot about whether there is life that exists elsewhere in the universe. I myself, do believe that there is not life anywhere else in the universe. I believe that there isn’t life anywhere else in the universe for the reasons as follows: We have never discovered any other life on any other planets, We do not have/never have received any messages or form of communication from this other life form, and I believe that God created everything. I don’t think the universe came from any existing life before us. From my religious view, I think God created everything, and that’s that.

It is true that scientists have discovered other planets in the universe, but there has never been any other life that has been found. If there hasn’t been any other life found yet, then how is there any life? I think that if there was life elsewhere, it would have been discovered by now, and in some way or form: we would have came into contact with that life. Many human beings have been very curious about the existence of this other life - life “beyond Earth”. Curiosity that comes natural too us leads us to investigate the Universe. We’ve been curious for thousands of years. Scientists spend all of this time trying to listen and find other life, but nothing has yet been found. Through the past centuries, we’ve tried to make sense of it all. Even though technology advances over the decades, we still struggle to understand the whole concept. Even research has shown that no life forms can survive on other planets, so I don't think there could possibly be any other life form in any way.

I believe that if there was a life somewhere else in the universe, they would have tried to make contact with us, but with that thought in mind, that hasn’t happened yet either. I think of it this way. Let’s say someone wants to make new friends. They’re curious about meeting new people, and doing new things. They go out and find those people. Whether it’s in the area, Myspace, Facebook, or whatever; they socialize. If there was another life elsewhere, then they would have at least made an effort to come into contact with us. I could be wrong on that one though. Maybe they just do not have that kind of technology yet. Who really knows: but I think that we would have came into contact with them by now. And even though there have been UFO sightings, there has not been any contact between any life form and human. So I strongly feel that if other life form(s) wanted to contact us humans, they have had a lot of opportunities to make themselves known, and they haven't.

The last big reason on why I think life doesn’t exist elsewhere in the universe is based on my beliefs/religion. I’m Christian, so I have the belief of God creating everything. So, since God created everything, there really isn’t any other belief of how things were created. I believe God created all of this, and that’s it. I don’t believe that there is anything else before God that created the universe, world, people, etc. I do not believe that there is anything before God.

In conclusion, I do not think life exists elsewhere in the universe. I do not believe that because we have never discovered any other life, this life has never tried to come into contact with us, and my beliefs. There are many other reasons why I think that there is no other such life in the universe, but these are the three main ones. I think that if there was other life that existed somewhere else in the universe, then that life form would have tried to at least come into contact with us by now, and they have had many opportunities to do it, and they haven't. Maybe they just don't have the technology yet. I mean, who really knows - but I think it would have been known by now.
