I suspect that some methods will be devised to detect life on extra-solar worlds, and that we may see science claim life exists on other worlds within the next 5-10 years, if indeed any exist with reasonably abundant life on it.

I am of the opinion that life does indeed exist elsewhere in the universe. How common it may be, I have no idea.

Depends on one's theology. In the big picture, I think everything is fine.
