There is a 100% chance of showers tomorrow.

And to say that there can be no "intelligent" life because one side is always facing the star isn't really thinking in terms of adaptation. Over a few thousand years life can adapt to almost anything. We have life in the harshest environments on earth, why not this planet?

Wait, lemme guess? Theres no such thing as evolution? lol

Please creationists! Come out of the woodwork AGAIN for this one and tell us all how science is wrong and the bible is scientific fact.

I believe that a supreme being created the universe. In the vastness of the universe he created why would I think he limited life to just this one tiny minute speck. Most people that I know that believe the Bible also believe that the Creator has abundantly populated the universe with life.

"The chances for life on this planet are 100 percent," Steven Vogt, a UC professor of astronomy and astrophysics says. "I have almost no doubt about it."

But, doctor, doesn't "almost no doubt" imply something less than 100%?

Here's a "creationist" that says life on other planets is most certainly possible, why would God only put life here on one planet in the whole stinking universe?

You put the words evolution and adapt together when by most defintions, the evolution you are talking about (when just the word 'evolution' is present) is inherently macro evolution (jumping species), which is not scientific "fact", its a theory. However, adaptation, or micro evolution, most certainly happens and we see this all the time.

I didn't say that life couldn't adapt to 100% light/dark, I said intelligent life probably could not. Not because of the light/dark issue (although there's something to that as well, look at people who live in the far north, they go crazy when they get no light for months and no dark for months...now stretch that into no dark ever, or no light ever), but due to the extreme temperatures on either side. I don't think you realize the difference in temperatures on either side of this planet.

Oh, and your patronization of "creationists" is hilarious, what's next? Ad hominem attacks?

So that's where Adam and Eve went after Earth. They probably only got about 535,000 more years till they arrive.

Usually.

...If this planet does in fact have life forms, I hope I'm the first one to greet our neighbors in the Universe if they all look like her!
