Aliens?

Whether there is other life in the universe or there isn't, either way, the ramifications are staggering. I mean, after all, if we as a planet are entirely unique in all of the universe, haven't we got better things to be out there doing than fighting amongst ourselves? We're like unsupervised kids in an empty amusement park with free tickets to everything, and we're fighting over who stands in line where. And if there is other life out there, wouldn't we be better served by not looking like an unruly gang of kids absent parents?
