Alien Question for Atheists

I'd definitely be interested in knowing what evidence this smarter species has. But if it’s the Christianity from the Bible that they’re believing...or anything very similar to that book I’d be having none of it. Honestly, even if Christianity were proven beyond all doubts, the best you’d get from me is pretending to love god in hopes that he wouldn’t send me to hell.

I guess the "evidence" in this case would be the crazy coincidence that an alien species from another solar system has the same predominant religion as us. Would that not give you pause at all?

I'd be gobsmacked as to why an intelligent life on another planet - (and given our knowledge of the planets it would be a far, far distant one, in another star system) - why they would be following the truth and teachings of an itinerant Jew, living in a small part of the planet earth, so far, far away. And if the God-come-down-to-planet was not Jesus, then I'd wonder how many offspring this god has had. I'd also wonder why we don't have any indication on earth, for the truth or even the existence of the exo-planetarian religion. Would it be another instance of the hidden-ness of "God", and a case of the dishonesty of "God" to boot. Or could it be that there is more than one god ? ? ? If there is more than one god, did they conduct a team effort in "creating" the universe, and all the other things for which "God" is supposedly responsible ?

All of that would tend to make me metaphorically put another nail, in the metaphorical coffin of the concepts in Christianity.

What I think is that the whole conjectural proposition is ridiculous, and cannot be answered with any kind of sense, since it's nonsensical to begin with.
