Quote: The chances are that life exists on millions or billions of planets
It does. But to explain that we'd have to move to the soapbox. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Oh yeah, I bet you'd just love that.
Actually, we don't - we just have to accept that we both perceive how it all happened quite differently - why not just leave it at that and enjoy the notion that, however they got there, we agree that alien species most likely exit, in droves, elsewhere in our galaxy.

We know at least 8 planet that (probably) don't support life, and certainly nothing macroscopic, right here in our solar systems!

You are the one who took it as a joke about religion, which it was not.
Just using the quote to make a joke about your statement "how could anyone think this is the only planet with life".
Keep your sense of humor when you see
It is not intended to offend anybody.

Then use the joke icon. And means laughing. If you are telling a joke, use the joke icon. Laughing can mean different things to different people.
Anyway, read the Lounge rules. It isn't my job to educate you on how to be proper.

That is what jokes are supposed to make you do.

 It usually means they find something funny. Obviously we don't find the same things funny. As I said before I was making a joke about "how could anyone think this is the only planet with life". Not a joke about religion.
I don't make jokes about religion because there is always someone who takes offense. Seems religion is no joking matter to some people.

Ya, I found it funny. Sure. I was laughing with you, not at you.

So, your using a single passage out of the Bible to claim that some people could actually believe what I was claiming they shouldn't and you're saying that isn't about Religion? Interesting viewpoint.

But did people write about and read about it centuries later?
If not it must not have been noteworthy.

Right. That could be the only explanation.
However, there was much other stuff written which is how we know. But again, for the soapbox, not here.

Given that life exists at the bottom of the ocean around deep sea vents, based on sulphur and heat, so I understand, rather than CO2 O2 and sunlight, as on the surface, there is no need to look for similar planets to earth. LIfe could exist almost anywhere, such as on Io even.

I think the challenge might be to find life that is similar to ours on planets that we could survive on without too much trouble.
