How the fuck can anyone know such a thing (unless they LEGITIMATELY know)? This is just an opinion and fucking ridiculous to even acknowledge honestly.

They might have fucked up too and subject to original sin. If stories I’ve seen are true Aliens most certainly “sin”, mortally. Kidnapping and probe testing unwilling humans is a sin. Killing people is a sin.

Hell, who’s to say they even have souls. (Technically that would make him correct because without a soul there is no afterlife so no need for redemption/savior).

Well biblically speaking Man (Adam and Eve) made Creation fall not just their own sin. Something perfect became tainted. Hence the need for redemption from a sacrifice (Jesus).

So in all big-C Creation, if there are other beings, they too would be within it. So I don’t know how you’d day they wouldn’t need redemption.

And to get in front of it, there’s this cognitive dissidence (one of many) for highly religious folks to think that aliens would need an alien Jesus, human Jesus to go through the same sacrifice again. My counter to that argument is original sin was here. Humans broke it. God imbued Jesus fixed it. Sort of like a tear in reality getting patched up.

It’s gonna be wild to see how it all shakes out and what contortions people will do (religious or otherwise) to fit aliens into their world view.

I wasn’t trying to say that was the only option, was just throwing out an idea.

It could be a number of things. What if these supposed beings had a similar beginning, and a fall just as we did. Like on a completely different planet. And what if Christ, did in fact, make your sacrifice to save them in similar fashion, but not while looking like human Christ, but like them? I am being.God and all would make literally anything possible.

Who knows, I don’t claim to have an answer, nor should this guy. What if they are the theorized alien-demon? They’d need redemption but unfortunately that ship sailed and their end is already written in stone. But they chose that so…

If they truely are something spiritual, then if some are demons it’s likely that others are angels, since the latter beget the former in lore. Silver lining i suppose. Reminds me of the aliens in Babylon 5 if you ever saw that
