As a molecular biologist for the last 40 years might I suggest that some of you should get a far deeper understanding of molecular biology as well as evolution before commenting.

Allan,
I absolutely agree with you 100 percent.
I am sure that some of the correspondents in this thread know a lot of astronomy, and some of the statistical arguments about the number of stars and habitable planets that may exist in the universe.
However, it seems quite obvious to me that quite a few of them have never actually read a biology book.
I certainly do not pretend to expert knowledge in biology, but I am an enthusiast who tries hard to learn all the biology I can;
as I do with the science of astronomy, I enjoy the beauty and intricacy and the very complex problems of biological science.
Best regards
Robert
