With logic isn't it proven?

Okay considering Earth is just one planet and who knows the size of the universe. Wouldn't it be logical to assume that there is at least one alien species out there?

According to Dr G DE Purucker, there are seven globes to each planet except the sun, the earth we have now has six more globes and when the earth dies a new colony will be on the next one, supposedly earth was not our first planet, we were on mars, i believe and Venus, he says said if we are so arrogant to believe we are the only species in the Universe one can see why we will not survive. I can't take credit for this, Emma was telling me about this the other day on chat.

The issue is not whether or not life of some sort might exist elsewhere. As you say, in an infinite universe it must. The problem has always been intelligent life, and more importantly, how two alien cultures could interact given the vast distances involved. The problem isn't just distance in space either, but distance in time. One alien race might go extinct centuries before another could evolve to intelligence. That assumes Life even evolves into Intelligence on a regular basis.

they say dolphins can speak to each other, look at some of the natives on Australia(i think) that speak with clicks. I think intelligent life can take on any form and any size. alien is the key or different, there could be life on any planet or in the universe, but perhaps we don't know how to look, or the ability to see with instruments, such as black matter.

now to take a look at probable in a form as creatures as we here on earth are; it basically takes many factors to support life and I do not think there is any within our solar system. a super advanced race may be able to get here, but I do not think it has happened not to mention they would have to find us though they could have very high sensors to probe the universe.

a question perhaps is what make something intelligent, is its ability to make tools, or is it communication at a defined spoken language, or perhaps the ability to think logically such as to think before one acts as apposed to instinct.

There is actually a mathematical expression called the Drake equation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drake_equation) that shows the number of alien intelligences in the galaxy. Unfortunately, most of the factors are unknown or unknowable.
