It'd be more helpful if people stopped saying stars.

They are all Suns.

If more people recognized that each galaxy had trillions of Suns, each with their own planets, and then realized there a trillions of galaxies, the question of if there is life outside of earth would never be asked again, just based on sheer probability. The only question would be where is the closest solar system with life.

Our Sun is a star. They are all stars. A sun is just what we call ours (or Sol, either or).
