Does Christianity exist on other planets?

Has Jesus incarnated everywhere there is a planet with life on it, or just Earth?

Better question: Has Jesus incarnated to save other species of animal, or just humans?

Moreover: Are humans the only species in the universe of trillions of trillions of star systems that get to go to heaven? If not, are they the only ones that require Jesus? Or does every species in the universe require jesus? Has Jesus ever been a cockroach? Or would the cockroach have to recognize the human jesus as their lord and savior in order to get to heaven?

I expect some outrageously ridiculous replies.

Ready. Set. Justify your beliefs.

Who is this Jesus character you speak of?

Oh. You must be from another planet. Welcome to earth. Now repent.

Good question. i always wondered what it meant when priests and preachers spoke about being above the firmament. Makes me wonder if were below the firmament? Oh well guess we'll never know until it's to late.

I don't think Jesus is worshiped anywhere but Earth. Just my opinion, nothing to back it up. I just don't see why he would be?
Do you think some other planets out there fight over who is the messiah?
When the E.T.s get here are we gonna ask them "Are you from Planet Jesus or Planet Mohammed?"

i prayed to jesus the other day, ya' know, just to keep in touch.
he was extremely depressed and was in no mood for talking.
maybe he was reading all these dumb jesus threads here at ATS?

No I think it's because he's preoccupied with trying to save the gorgonites on gilese 581.

Here's what the Catholic Church has to say on that matter.

The senior Vatican scientist, Brother Guy Consolmagno, said that he would be delighted if we encountered intelligent aliens and would be happy to baptise them.

His pronouncement opens up the possibility of space missionaries heading out to the stars to convert aliens to Christianity.

Another interesting article out of the Vatican is here: "THE EXTRATERRESTRIAL IS MY BROTHER"

This doesn't answer any of the questions.

Interesting question....
Or maybe we are the most screwed up planet in the whole universe!
And that is why we need a Savior.

Sorry if that wasn't a good enough answer for you, but your OP is kinda "all over the place."

If you read the Father Funes interview I linked, he says that "if there is sin on other planets, then those inhabitants will need to be redeemed." He goes on to say the "Christ" doesn't have to re-incarnate and die again, because what he did on earth was enough for all living beings, anywhere.

Better?

I have a better chance of winning the lottery 1000 times.

But yeah you're probably right. It's not like humans have a such thing as a delusional ego or anything.

I think that avatars incarnate where there is need.

So yes. I think extraordinarily gifted beings are sent to guide the plethora of life the universe contains. Across all spectrum.

Oh and it wasn't a good enough answer for me because it really didn't answer any of the questions. So don't blame my thread for your incompetence.

Tell that to a literal interpreter of the bible.

That was a very nice thought
I think of same
How is god handling all those species spread throughtout the galaxy ?
I wonder what will be his physical appearance when he descends upon the land of the greys / reptilians in the planet orion ?
Does Aliens care about hell and heaven ?
Do they really have any religion ?

Oh god , are they really going to babtise the greys and reptilians ?
The alien will cook n eat him up before he starts the babtising ritual

I'm assuming that you're asking if Jesus is worshipped as the Savior on other planets.

There is no reason to assume that aliens are in need of a Savior. Have they "sinned" Maybe yes, maybe no. We don't even know if they have souls to be redeemed. Do apes or dolphins need redemption? Further, just as God had a redemption plan for us, he may have a different redemption plan for them.

My own preference is that we don't discover aliens, if they exist. Mankind doesn't have a good record when it comes to dealing with strange "people."

Your question shows a disturbing level of ignorance as to the purpose of Jesus's incarnation and death. Until we can agree on that then we cannot answer the question. From the mocking tone you are showing, I doubt that we could agree on it. The last line of your post indicates that you are not really interested in an answer, just an argument. Is this one of the outrageous replies that you were expecting?

Are you saying that apes and dolphins don't have souls?
