Mr. Sklansky, I'm confused as to why having a large number of planets in existence is any sort of an indicator that God may or may not exist. To ask "why did he create all those other planets?" is a silly and irrelevant question to me.

It's not an indicator of God's existence. It's a question.

If you believe that God exists, and you believe that God created the universe, and you don't believe that there is life on other planets, then what is your belief for why God created so many other planets?

In other words, what is their purpose in an intelligently designed universe?
