The thing is everybody only looks at half the argument when saying "do you really think there isn't life in the huge universe".
Sure there are tons if stars and planets, but what are the odds of the building blocks of life being placed in the same place in the right order under the proper conditions without some cosmic disaster fricking everything up.
We also would have to agree on what we are talking about when we say "life", what are we looking for. I am sure life exists in the form of simple organisms somewhere out there, I think intelligent probably not 40/60

They're very good if we recognize that life is the result of chemical evolution. I recommend the first two-thirds of Life beyond Earth : the intelligent earthling's guide to life in the universe(Feinberg and Shapiro). It was published in 1980 but the chemistry discussed is timeless and very understandable.
