Technically you’re right, “equally likely” is not backed by evidence

Considering, of course, the fact that the discovered species on Earth are the only species in the universe whose existence is backed by evidence and we’re the most advanced on Earth, there is no “likely,” we ARE the most advanced (based on what can be backed by evidence). I thought I was being generous by calling it “equally likely” since we’re talking about aliens and dealing mostly in hypotheticals, theories, and probabilities. My bad.

If we’re suddenly concerned only with what can be backed by evidence, I’m curious about the evidence you have of more advanced species in the universe. Care to share?
