We are the only advanced sentient species that exists in this universe

It is incredibly arrogant to state with absolute certainty, that in the vastness of this universe which we know a fraction of a fraction of a thousandth of a percent about, we are the only advanced life to inhabit it. We don't even understand what lies in the deepest depths of our own oceans because of our limitations in technology.

[Life as we know it] is also an incredibly loose term, considering we don't understand many life functions on our own planet and we don't have the mental capacity to comprehend other forms of existence- spiritual for example, if that's a belief you choose to take claim of. If you believe in GOD, gods, angels, demons, spirits- you subconsciously concede that forms of life exist that are beyond our understanding, and impossible for our limited brains to comprehend said existence.

And for the record, in general I would not consider mankind "sentient" as a whole. But that's just me.
