I never understood why we have to find an earth-like planet to find life. If one believes in evolution then who is to say that an organism on a planet hostile to human life couldn't adapt to the environment and thrive? There is life in the depths of the ocean that would die if it came up to shallower water where there is less pressure and there are organisms that thrive living next to volcanic vents deep in the ocean where the ambient temperatures would kill a human. To say that we have to find a planet with similar atmosphere, air, gravity, water and whatever else in order to find life is ridiculous. To insult someone over the fact they slightly comprehend the vastness of space and that the likelihood of intelligent life exists and that it might resemble human form somewhere else shows your ignorance. Who knows, maybe they dont resemble human form, maybe we resemble them.
