    Because it makes absolutely no sense to devout your life to something in which you don't care if it's true or not?

    I love Astronomy, I'd drop my job in gambling and become an Astronomer tomorrow if I was smart enough and it paid. I am particularly interested in the possibility of life outside the Earth, I'd happy devote my life to it. I might not know if it actually exists but I'd certainly care enough to try find out.

    Not caring if its true or not is a lot different to having no burning desire to seek 'proof'.

    That would be a good argument if Earth was the only planet in the universe. However, you're conveniently ignoring the billions of planets where your 'God' ****ed up. Simple laws of statistics say that, with that many chances, at least one of them's going to come up trumps.

    infact the universe is said to be infinite which requires there to be an infinite number of planets which also meet the criteria to sustain life. you do know the earth isnt the centre of the universe?

    the earth is not the centre of anything as far as any person with any level of intelligence should be concerned. if you believe this then you are the biggest halfwit to have ever lived.

    There is no evidence to suggest the universe is infinite. And even if it was that doesn't mean there could be an infinite number of planets.

    If you had an infinite hotel with an infinite number of rooms and an infinite number of guests and a new guest turned up which room would you put him in?
