Do you think Aliens would know more about spirituality than humans?

Question

If some aliens are advanced enough to travel to Earth, would they not have know more about GOD? Would they not be able to explain all those unanswered questions to us?

Do you think their religions would be similar to ours?

My guess is an advanced society would have philosophies much like those in the East (Taoism, Etc).

Answer 1

I don't believe in aliens

You said IF. Ok, IF they were able to do any of this. No, I still don't think they would have any more knowledge about god and death.

I don't think their religion would be anything like ours...I mean we cannot even get a unified religion going here. What makes you think they'd have a similar religion in space?

Not to mention that most of our religions are based on folklore and fairy tales...It's proven that some of the Christian stories (like Noah and the Arc) predate even Greek Mythology. We've just evolved the fairy tale to conform to our belief systems.

It's holy baloney.

Answer 2

If these aliens are from advanced society, my guess is they might know something more than we human do. Who knows they are actually human 10 million years ago, which they left earth for better living environment, and later came back to check earth out. Or maybe they are human 10 million year into the future.

Answer 3

First, since there is no evidence that aliens even exist, this is a moot question.

Second, scientific advancement has nothing to do with spiritual revelation.

Third, why would an 'advanced' society be similar to the Orient in philosophy?

Answer 4

I didn't know that being Spiritual had anything to do with God or Aliens. Being Spritual means to believe in something greater than the self you may label it God, however it doesn't specifically have to be labeled that way. Some call it Great Spirit, others call it Jesus, still others call it the collective conciousness. They would have evolved beyond the need for petty bickering about belief systems and would have obsoleted that thought system/process. PEACE!

Answer 5

How would you know that their technology is advanced enough to travel to Earth? For all you know, they're 500 years behind us in civilization and tech-crap. I'm sure their religions are different from ours, because they have been living in a totally different lifestyle from us, under different conditions. What if their natural environment was water? Then they can't really say "zomg, God made fishies. and seperated the water from sky." because what if they don't have a sky? What if they're all living underground, underwater?? Completely incapable of breathing oxygen like us?? Then their religion would be completely different!!

On second thought, perhaps you're right-- maybe they have the same concept of "God", and "Bhudda", and "Mars/Pluto/Venus/Athena" & all that stuff, eh?

Answer 6

Spiritual aliens will help us by taking their flying saucers and whirling around the world sucking up every religious fundamentalist of any faith. They will transport these fundies to a work colony on some planet far away from Earth. The planet will be named Fundylandia. Bush will be their President and Osama will lead the opposition party. Wars will be commonplace on Fundylandia.

Answer 7

I would venture to say that aliens had they come here wouldve been treated as supreme beings much like we view gods today... so in that sense i think its fairly easily to conclude that they are the source of religious affairs and that they helped man get a leg up on nature and propelled themselves to the top of the food chain.

Answer 8

Hypothetically, if aliens existed, it's possible that they would know more about God than we do. Probably, though, their religions would be just as varied as ours. I tend to believe that God is unknowable in a physical sense, no matter how advanced your technology is.

Answer 9

If they could travel there, it would mean they have mroe advances in technology and science. Technology does not advance with humanity; it often races far ahead. So they can travel at the speed of light.. what does that say about their morals?...not a damn thing.

Answer 10

knowledge is infinite, what we know is only a drop of water compared to the oceans, wether alliens knows better or not is no issue.. God gave us brain to think and judge.. God gave us senses for us to use them properly and manage this world. Why alliens? why not just among us, God created differences among us not to be different, but to learn between each others. Lets make this short life to the fullest as what God asked us to...
