Menti, are you really a Christian?

No, you know, I'm just pretending!

Well, for now, the possibility of the existence of living matter not based on carbon is unknown. Silicon is not so active.

Yes, but what bothers me most about "silicon organisms" is not even that, but the fact that silicon oxide is sand: a substance that is not gaseous, unlike carbon dioxide, moreover, it is solid and even insoluble in water! It is completely unclear how silicon organisms should remove this very waste silicon from their bodies.
I just don't quite understand how this is related to Imaris's statement, but whatever.

Let's discuss the Fermi paradox instead.

Well, there are basically two options. Either we were really, really, really lucky with our planet (I think that's the case), or no one has been able to travel at superluminal speeds, and all sorts of radio waves and other attributes of civilizations, spreading at sub-light and light speeds, have not yet reached us, because civilizations have reached a sufficient level of development for this relatively recently in cosmic terms.

If not, give me counterarguments, in what cases has Christianity really helped people.

The whole world we see now looks this way mainly because of Christianity, as it was a defining factor in the cultural development of all of Europe, which in turn exported its culture to almost the entire rest of the globe.
