do you think aliens exist?

Scientists and philosophers have actually thought about this problem before, and they have come up with a famous equation called the Drake equation! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drake_equation

The Drake equation gives the probability that Drake's next track will be fire, and it's defined as follows:

The Drake Equation:

F = c*r*fp*ne*fl*fi*fc*L

Where F represents the probability that the next Drake track will be fire.
c is the mean rate of Drake's music production.
r is the fraction of songs released by Drake that are potential hits.
fp is the number of featured artists on the song.
ne is the number of different instrumental beats used.
fl is the fraction of the song dedicated to reflecting on past relationships.
fi is the ratio of the number of "yeah"s to "uh"s in the song.
fc is the percentage of the song featuring Drake's famous "woah" ad-lib.
L is the average length of the song in seconds.

The uncertainty of these factors is high, but if you assume a few values to estimate F then you are well on your way to predicting whether his next track will be a hit!

God is caring, but also jealous. He created you, so He doesn’t want you worshiping other false gods.
@Edo_Cribbio
I’m being honest, I have no idea. This is all hypothetical by the way. He may not have created other aliens. When I said destroyed, I did not necessarily mean other civilizations. Maybe planets for us that He didn’t find fit
Actually, they're keeping us under quarantine until we grow up a bit more. But their comedians regularly poke fun at us.
