Aliens and the Crucifixion

For those who believe that there is intelligent life on other planets,
would this mean that Christ would have to be crucified more than once
for their redemption since many beleive Him to be the catholic
(universal) Redeemer and Son of God? Was the Crucifixion one selfless
act to save all eligible life, or would more than one crucifixion be
necessary for other planets?

I'm of the view that the Crucifixion was so singularly loving and
exceptional in our planet (where it took place) that it is up to us to
eventually make disciples of all nations and planets, solar systems,
galaxies, universes, et cetera, baptizing them in the name of the
Father and the + Son and the Holy Ghost amen..

McCain and the Republican party, in this view, have a much more
Christian outlook than Obama because we're interested in expanding
space travel and putting a man on Mars.

Well, the issue I have with this is that Christ didn't really
_have_ to be crucified at all. This was a voluntary thing
on God's part, unless you believe his hand was tied by
some even higher power. After all, why would God need
to commit suicide in order to forgive? He's supposed to
be omnipotent, so he could have just forgiven anyway.

Indeed.
Nice to see a bit of rational reasoning and common sense rather than merely
taking story at face value and believing the entire bible without
questioning one word.
Do you think Jesus LIKED...

Also is this stupid idea of humans that they must go round trashing things
and smashing up temples and sacred buildings in order to spread the word of
Jesus.
The message of Jesus was that you can "find the Father through him".
You must not worship or adulate Jesus - but through him you must ONLY
worship the Father and the Father is the aim not Jesus.

So those who believe in an Ultimate Power - Divine Being - Great Spirit - in
essence already believe and worship "The Father". So for humans to then go
trash their buildings and ruin their existence by insisting they believe in
Jesus is obviously not only completely stupid but absolutely banal.
These people already HAVE the Father in the form of Great Spirit or Divine
Being - so these clots who brandish Jesus on a cross in order to make them
change their allegiance FROM the Father to the Son in order to then find the
Father and change their allegiance back to the Father which they had in the
first place is pathetic.
