That exactly is my point. Nobody has tried to prove anything. I'm only saying that the statement "no life is possible" is true. And an opposite statement such as "life is possible" is also true. I don't think anyone said otherwise?
I was really just wondering why this seemed to cause such a debate?
The paper from the original post merely deals with a mathematical exercise to acknowledge that it is a possibility that no ET life exists. How likely that might be is another matter entirely and that is pure guesswork at this stage, which is also one of the points of that paper.
