lol, "creature" is just an expression. Don't take it literally. I like your jokes sometimes but not this time, sorry.

I don't discuss infinity because I don't know much about it (even my maths lecturer admitted no one knew exactly what it is).

I only express my views and back them up with what I've learnt only to the topics I am more or less familiar with.

So here are they, what I know for sure:

Answers to the question you posed:

- Why is the sky blue?

The answer is that droplets of water vapour in the air can separate light into its component colours with blue being the most refracted, therefore its angle of refraction is the highest which allows it to reach our eyes. Therefore, we perceive the sky as blue.

To understand this, you need to know that light gets refracted when it travels from one medium to another, and its component wavelengths (which, in the visible spectrum, are the colours you see) all are "bent" at different angles, thus they are separated.

- Why is Earth the only planet with life?

How do you know? To make the claim that only life exists here, you have to show that life can't exist elsewhere in the entire universe (and please don't use contrapositive to rebut this point. you have to stick to your first hypothesis). Consider the number of galaxies. In each galaxy, look at the number of solar systems. In each solar system, look at the number of planets. Is it so small a probability that life exists selectively and solely on this planet? That's an extreme assumption and has no backing whatsoever. If life can thrive here, there is no reason why it can't in other places.

EDIT: typos everywhere. =.=
