What sounds more plausible or impossible, that life only formed on this one planet out of many trillions of planets, 400bil galaxies ,that sounds like just an aweful waste of space . Yet, as far as we know, this is the case - that life only exists on this planet. There is no evidence or proof to the contrary.

Even if you fill the universe with pre-biotic soup, and react amino acids at Planck time (very fast!) for 14 billion years, you are probably not going to get even 1 such protein. "Probably not going to get" and yet look around you this world is teeming with life Yep. And that is precisely the point. why would God wait 14bilyrs What does time mean to the being that created time? We can't imagine. Ditto when you talk about the size of the universe and "wasted space."
