I find Neil deGrasse Tyson's reasoning on this fairly sound. He said that we shouldn't be surprised that we haven't noticed anything yet, saying there is no other intelligent life in the universe is like a marine biologist scooping a cup of water out of the Atlantic Ocean and concluding that there are no whales.

However, it could be quiet out there because of transcension.
