Read up on M theory for multiple universes, as well as big bang theory. Also, I remember reading that our universe is supposedly round (but not perfectly spherical) in four or more dimensions, including in imaginary( i = sqrt(-1) ) time and space. M theory basically adds seven more dimensions and lots of math I haven't seen yet.

I agree with Kitsune, way too many theories.

False hope of boobs

Zero chance.So far, we have confirmed that our solar system is made up of 8/9 planets (depends on whether or not Pluto can be called a planet). Out of these planets, it seems clear that none of the planets besides earth has or can sustain any life. However, since we haven't seen all of the planets in our solar system, what are the chances of one of our "neighboors" having life on it's surface?
The other planets aren't capable of supporting life forms at all. Though how Earth is still home to so many creatures is bizarre; a huge variety of unique organisms in a hostile universe is more than just coincidence. It's like we're trapped on some 'Intergalactic Zoo' or something. o_O

It's hard to call anything on Earth "bizarre" if we have no other life-sustaining planet to compare it to.

He wasnt calling anything on earth bizarre, just the fact that we just happen to live with so many different lifeforms on one planet.It's hard to call anything on Earth "bizarre" if we have no other life-sustaining planet to compare it to.
Which i disagree with.
It isnt bizarre because Earth is obviously the perfect environment for sustaining the forms of life that exist here.
If evolution did occur here, or if life came about in a different way, then it was because of the perfect conditions.
And if the life earth was created, then the creator would have his own reasons for isolating one planet out of a solar system for sustaining life.
