Everybody in that system drives a Prius. Or a clown car.
Or is there a difference?

Among the billions of galaxies, nothing will match Earth.
We are alone.

No crap? Well, better alert all the scientists of the world, tell ‘em to just quit now. Wish I had your omniscience.

Hubris is one thing. Is there a word to describe this position? Geocentric is far too simple. Even the Jesuits recognize that God created the ENTIRE universe and all within it.
Perhaps thecabal can deign to share its knowledge of the entire universe, and its conviction that humans are the ONLY one HE has any interest in with we mere mortal humans. I’m sure that local...angels are curious too. BG.

“Among the billions of galaxies, nothing will match Earth.”
That is more a matter of faith and pride.
But we simply cannot prove it. Ever.
“We are alone.”
No. We are just on our own. And so are they.
There are other ‘intelligent life forms’ much closer to us, that we have yet to discover.
So, we are not as alone as we might think.

God isn’t what we think he is, and doesn’t think like we do.
So, if God has other ‘interests’, it’s not like we can do anything about it.

Heh, your pessimism in the face of facts to the contrary resembles that of a Democrat opposing progress in Iraq.
