God made all the stars, a vast number. All the galaxies too, also a vast number. Did he fill them with creatures like us?
Why make such a vast universe, billions of light years across and with billions upon billions of galaxies and each galaxy filled with billions upon billions of stars, and as many planets or more, it seems. So much abundance, did he make it all to be empty, decorations for the night sky? It seems profligate.
Psalm 19:1 The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
2 Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they reveal knowledge.
3 They have no speech, they use no words;
no sound is heard from them.
4 Yet their voice[b] goes out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.
In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun.
5 It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,
like a champion rejoicing to run his course.
6 It rises at one end of the heavens
and makes its circuit to the other;
nothing is deprived of its warmth.
