Like I said we have hundreds of billions of galaxies.

We have more than 100 billion tries if you want to say only one planet per galaxy can have the ability to produce life. And each galaxy has billions of stars.

We know that life evolved over time to adapt to it's environment. And that is why life is the way it is here. We have certain pressures exerted to us on our environment and we must be able to survive those pressures so we adapt.

To say that life needs to be this way or that way to survive is based on a narrow minded assumption of what we can only see on earth.

The single celled organisms that inhabited this earth a few billion years ago took over 1 billion years to develop into anything more complex. It took many trials of reproduction for it to get it right. It may have seemed impossible if they only got a few tries but they had billions upon billions upon billions of tries over a span of a billion years to get it right.

What if the organism that arose on a different planet formed differently based on the environment of that planet.

We know that certain organisms can survive temperatures of up to 284 degrees Fahrenheit and temperatures close to absolute zero.

And all the different chemicals you see here in the universe once began as only hydrogen. And with time we got all of what we see today.

There are so many unknowns that it would be hard to even make an educated guess but anyone who is trying to act certain on this matter is too full of himself.

You have to be pretty ignorant to say that our planet is the only one capable of life even within our own galaxy. We have barely even explored our own galaxy when talking about looking for planets that are habitable for our types of life.
