After multi billions of years, in the unimaginable vastness of space, WE are the only thing the universe has been able to produce.
A very scary, and very sad postulation, isn't it ?
Not really. On the aesthetic level this points out that since we appear to be it for intelligent life [people and dogs and ravens, etc.], we ought to feel a sense of importance.
Which is to say, if we don't go forth and multiply throughout the universe, we are not doing as we were instructed. We also need to stop fighting over this ball of dirt. Drop that RPG and get to work!
Not really, since it means we won't have anybody else shooting at us when we want to grab some good real estate.
