That's of course assuming that the universe is there for a reason. Something can only be a waste if something 'better' should be there. If we're all just here by pure luck that all the right things happened to occur for us to be possible, then there's no reason there should be life anywhere else. It's like if you look at the desert and say, well that's a waste of space, it could be a lovely rainforest or something that would be worthwhile - only to the eyes of someone who happens to value rainforests. If the universe just
is, then there's no waste of space, just space [img]smile.gif[/img]
