What do evolutionists think about rare earth hypothesis?

The Rare Earth hypothesis posits that while simple microbial life may be common in the universe, the evolution of complex, multicellular, and intelligent life requires an exceptionally rare combination of astrophysical, geological, and biological circumstances. Earth is argued to be extraordinarily special, making complex life elsewhere highly improbable.

In Blow to Junk RNA, “Majority” of Transcription Not “Background Noise”

https://scienceandculture.com/2026/05/garbage-goodbye-in-blow-to-junk-rna-majority-of-transcription-not-background-noise/

More than 75% of the human genome is transcribed into RNA, despite only about 2% coding for proteins, raising the question of whether this widespread transcription is functional or merely background noise. Recent studies suggest that much of this transcription is regulated rather than random: reversing or randomizing genomic sequences greatly reduces transcription, and an AI model called Puffin-D predicts transcription levels at least four times lower in randomized genomes than in the native human genome. These findings indicate that most observed transcription cannot be easily explained as accidental activity of the transcription machinery. One possible explanation is that many non-coding RNAs have functions that remain undiscovered, although the evidence does not yet prove that all such transcripts are functional. The results challenge the view that pervasive transcription is largely noise and suggest that a substantial portion of the genome may play roles that are not yet fully understood.

Once, I asked someone whether a bus was going to a certain place. They replied in the affirmative. Guess what? The bus wasn’t stopping there. I had to beg the conductor to stop the bus where I wanted to get off. In the worst-case scenario, it could have wasted two hours.

Another time, I was stupid enough to board a bus without asking first, and I ended up wasted three hours. I could still have saved some time if I had gotten off when the bus diverted away from the common route. I asked the conductor to stop the bus at the place where it diverted from the common route but they didn't listen.

When I finally ended up at the wrong stop, I barely managed to board another bus heading toward my destination. That bus didn’t go the full way to my destination. I barely caught the second connecting bus in time. Otherwise, I would have been stranded 40 km away from my destination at night.

When a bus stops and people get off, the people trying to get on often enter through the same door at the same time. I fear getting trapped in the crowd and not being able to get off at my stop.

Once I was nearly unable to unboard at my stop. I was on a Volvo bus on a long route. I was the only passenger getting off at that location, and the bus took the highway instead of the side road. Even after the highway ended, when the bus still could have stopped, it didn’t. The bus finally stopped 1.5 km ahead of where it should have.

Another fear I have is getting off the bus to collect my luggage from the luggage compartment, only for the bus to drive away. It hasn't happened to me yet.

Does anyone else feel this way?

It would be nice if our buses followed more proper and organized procedures, like in first-world countries- separate doors for getting in and out, functioning emergency door, proper bus stops, proper boarding and unboarding, etc.
