Anytime scientists discover a planet that is earth-sized, they get excited about the possibility of finding life. But does earth-sized mean life?
Well, no, it doesn’t. You also need liquid water, the right gravitational pull to hold onto an atmosphere, the right gases in that atmosphere, the proper distance from the sun, a day/night cycle, the right kind of sun, a moon the right size and distance away, and so much more! And that just gets you the conditions favorable for life—that doesn’t get you life or the information system needed for life!
All life was created by God—it certainly didn’t evolve on this planet or anywhere else.
