Life from non-life is just too complex to happen by chance, no matter how many billions of years. It's like throwing all the parts of a car into a garage and expecting a fully assembled car to result.
Or to assert that chance couldn't result in life (or other complex systems). It's a mathematical fact that given enough time, something nearly impossible becomes fairly likely.
Now, my take is the universe is infinite and has no start or end (I think the Big Bang theory is just God for science types) and life was always part of it in the right spots anyway. It just comes and goes, shifts around, etc.

How do you know the universe is not teeming with life? It's shockingly stupid to make assumptions like that.

Excellent. I love to hear someone who agrees!
Yeah your other comments as this subthread has blown up are right on in my opinion.
