Well, what do you think the real big universe situation is?

God created the universe 14+ Billion years ago, then
created our solar system 4.5 Billion years ago, then
started life going here, and finally got us recently
on the path to human (intelligent!?) life.

But,,, nothing like life anywhere else?

Or, just in the billions of other places, they never
got the right ingredients for intelligent life?

OK.
You figure life is out there.
Probably plenty. Probably some ahead of us, plenty behind us ?

Separate fact: There are plenty of 'primitive tribes' of humans
on our Earth, that we just do not bother communicating or dealing
with.

Do you figure, that is kind of similar to ETs being out there?

As to the point of 'us' not communicating well with
the other 7 Billion humans on our own 'known' planet:

see:
https://www.wycliffe.org/

Wycliffe Bible Translators
No one should have to learn another language to understand God's Word.
And yet millions of people are still waiting for a single word of the
Bible's life-transforming power. Let's help churches and communities
around the world get Scripture in their language ... until all the
nations worship!

1.5 billion people
don’t have a full Bible in their language.

128 million people
don’t have any Scripture in their language.

350+ sign languages
are still waiting for a video Bible translation.

Daniel, you, of course, can believe anything you want to believe.

I believe God created the universe, and our Sun, and Earth,
and all plants and animals contained on it.
I do not believe that my Apple watch, as that timepiece
records time, would record it as being in 6 days.
I also believe that "something like 6,000 years ago" God
created Adam, and then Eve. But I do not see that a careful
reading of the Bible tries to rule out God using an existing
population of thousands that was gradually evolving to do so.

I welcome you to state your beliefs.
I also welcome readers here to read more about distinguished
religious scholars like Francis Collins and John Walton.
