Okay, just to let you know, I am a Christian. I have read the whole Bible and study it daily. I have been a Christian for over 20 years.
Now that that's out of the way, this is my take on it.
The Bible is VERY definitive on things. There were two types of beings that fell to sin. One was humans, and the other the angels who rebelled, not in that order.
Those that are men have something on their side that the angels don't; total ignorance. If we can't see it, we don't believe it.
Angels on the other hand don't have that problem. They can already see the spiritual things, they are spirits after all! They are also 'older' than our race is, so they saw a lot that we weren't even born to see.
I believe that since the Bible is so specific about 'humans' being the one's to fall into sin and ignorance, that all the other intelligent sentient extraterrestrial creatures in the universe know fully well who God is.
Science Fiction tends to only write about them having their own Gods, or none at all. And the stories about the aliens who have had dialog with people do no allude to the subject . . . that I have seen anyway!
But I think that no matter who they are, they know God. The question is typically asked by myself," Why wouldn't they tell us?"
My answer to that is, either they were told not to, which can be compared to Biblical examples, or they want people to remain confused about it; that's why they are showing up as 'aliens'. They want us to think that they 'evolved' on some other planet and developed their planets to a higher technological advancement compared to ours. They want to mislead us in that way.
So I think that they know God. But those who are showing up as aliens are not on the 'right' side!
That's my take on it anyway.

Uh dude aliens have said stuff about the existence of god! Haha they say that they are God. Thats what the people that have been abducted are brainwashed with. I believe that Aliens are demons. If you just look at all the stuff that the abductees have been told by the aliens, Its satanic.

Would aliens from another planet believe that life exists elsewhere in the cosmos other than where they live? That is, IF life elsewhere exists in the cosmos other than where we are at? What would they say?
"What could God have possibly been thinking when he created THESE losers?"

"The Fermi paradox is the apparent contradiction between high estimates of the probability of the existence of extraterrestrial civilizations and the lack of evidence for or contact with such civilizations.
According to some observers, the extreme age of the universe and its vast number of stars suggest that extraterrestrial life should be common. Discussing this proposition with colleagues over lunch in 1950, the physicist Enrico Fermi is said to have asked: "Where are they?" Fermi questioned why, if a multitude of advanced extraterrestrial civilizations exist in the Milky Way galaxy, evidence such as probes, spacecraft, or radio transmissions has not been found. The simple question "Where are they?" (alternatively, "Where is everybody?") is possibly apocryphal, but Fermi is widely credited with simplifying the problem of the probability of extraterrestrial life. Wider examination of the implications of the topic began with Michael Hart in 1975, and it is sometimes referred to as the Fermi-Hart paradox.
There have been attempts to resolve the Fermi Paradox by locating evidence of extraterrestrial civilizations, along with proposals that such life could exist without human knowledge. Counterarguments suggest that intelligent extraterrestrial life does not exist or occurs so rarely that humans will never make contact with it.
A great deal of effort has gone into developing scientific theories and possible models of extraterrestrial life and the Fermi paradox has become a theoretical reference point in much of this work. The problem has spawned numerous scholarly works addressing it directly, while various questions that relate to it have been addressed in fields as diverse as astronomy, biology, ecology and philosophy. The emerging field of astrobiology has brought an interdisciplinary approach to the Fermi paradox and the question of extraterrestrial life."--wikipedia
To the objective (or open minded ) person there are several possibliities:
1. Earth is unique-- Earth is the only planet capable of supporting life as we know it.
2. Earth is not unique in that there is life elsewhere but there are no other advanced civilizations in the universe.
3. Earthlike planets are extremely rare therefore any advanced civilizations are too far away for us to contact.
3. Earthlike planets are not rare, there are many civilizations out there but they are so far ahead of us technologically that they do not wish to be contacted.
4. Earthlike planets are not rare, there are many civilizations out there but their form of life may be so different than ours that communication may be impossible.
5. The Zoo hypothesis--we are being deliberately isolated by some advanced race wishing to protect us or cultivate us technologically.
6. We have been contacted but our governments feel that the general public is not "ready" for such a discovery and the aliens have respected that viewpoint.
7. They are already amoung us but we cannot see them (deliberate hiding or so differnet that our eyes can't see them)and our government doesn't know.
you can probably add to this list.

This is actually something many christians have pondered. In his book Mere Christianity C.S. Lewis conjectures as to the role of any other intelligent beings in the universe. He wonders if they exist, are they victims of original sin as well? How do they fit into the role of salvation? He has some interesting thoughts on the subject, but I don't quite remember them. You should read it if you feel so inclined.
As there is no absolute proof that there is any intelligent life out there, the question is somewhat needless as of yet and worth only mere speculation.

How should we know? Do we look like aliens from another planet? What they would have to say depends upon a variety of factors such as whether or not God actually exists, how likely the concept of religion is to arise in sentient races, and what sort of culture the aliens in question have developed.
Any more specific answer anyone might give is more indicative of their own beliefs than anything else.

Because most people look up when praying, they would probably think we are talking about them. They would most certainly wonder why mankind keeps killing each other in the name of someone who probably does not exist. One very good reason why true religious believers hope we are the only living beings in the universe. The fanatics just want to keep using religion as a reason for their crimes.

They would probably say that their God is the one true god, and anyone who does not follow their god will burn in the fiery pits of Triton. Then there are the aliens who believe in no such God and slam the believers. There is a alien contingency that rides the fence in regard to what to believe. (It could go either way.)

God has given mankind what it needs for existance on this planet. And provided The Way for each individual here to come to God in The Way He precribes.
I am certain He has provided for all of the seeds He has planted throughout the Universe... Their Ways will be as God has provided for them.
It will be very interesting to learn of all that one day. Another thing those of us who will make it to Heaven have to look forward to.

I think that the existence of aliens would pretty much nullify the existence of any god. It would prove that we are not the only life out there.
