 Can I ask what you both thought?

 Sure.

I'm confident there is life out there somewhere. I don't believe there's other human life (what we know as humans, anyway) and I don't believe in little green men in foil suits. I think the life that is out there is something we can't comprehend because it's so different from what we know on Earth. I refuse to believe that Earth is it given the vastness of the universe.

DH doesn't think there can be life because of how Earth is perfectly positioned in our solar system to support life. He wonders if other galaxies might have their own Earth and it's like Star Trek where there are alien races but those races are still human. I think it was Star Trek, anyway. He mentioned a bunch of names of races and I don't want either Star Trek or Star Wars so my eyes glazed over.

 I believe there is other life out there because I'm not arrogant enough to think that out of all of space and time that we are the only living creatures God has created. 

 That was another thing I mentioned. God is eternal. Surely there have been other living creatures created in that eternity.

 Thing is, there are billions of solar systems out there.

It`s doubtful they support human life, but I`m sure they support life. Just not life as we know it. Life that has evolved differently due to different environments.

 The bolded is pretty much what I told him. I don't think we'd recognize other life as life anyway. I think it would look far too different for us to even peg it as life.
