IE: the "son of God" becoming one of them, bringing a new faith (which is the same one we have), dying a horrible death for their sins, rising from the dead, the concept of the trinity as the father, son, and holy spirit, the belief in salvation, etc etc?
How staggering depends on how many other alien religions exist. It's not like christianity is the only human religion after all. And christianity shares a lot of similarities with other human religions.
You'd also have to compare other fairy tales. For example, do the aliens tell their children about a magical figure that rewards them with presents once a year if they are good and nothing if they have been bad? Or that if they hide their baby scales under their equivalent of a pillow when they fall out do they get some alien currency?
