The question is in the title. Can aliens enter Heaven?

Let's suppose that a race of aliens who can be as intelligent as humans, has a religion and one of them dies, can it receive the same privilege as the humans and go to a better afterlife? Assuming of course that the Christian god is the one making the calls in all the universe.

I think if God is the supposed creator of all the universe and all of the things that exist in it It most likely has a heaven for every intelligent creature in the universe.

And if that's the case, how do you think it's organized? Do humans and aliens probably live together in the afterlife? Do humans and aliens probably have their own type of heaven? Do non-believer aliens go to hell anyways if they don't know God's existence?
 
For the entire concept of religion to make sense for aliens, there are a couple factors that need to be in place. First, they need to have souls and be made in the image of God, which means either they're related to Adam or there were other Adams. Second there needs to be a Fall, sin and death has to enter into the world, or they would be perfect sinless beings without need of salvation. I think C.K. Lewis actually played with the idea of prelapsarian aliens. Third, salvation is contingent upon the Crucifixion, but God incarnated into a man, so how does that work? You'd have to assume the sacrifice still counts for them, because otherwise you'd need to have God incarnating, dying and ressurecting multiple times over on different plants which is absurd, or you'd have beings made in the image of God who are eternally barred from salvation, also absurd. If all those conditions are met, then sure they can be saved. I would think they'd be in the same place in Heaven, there's no need for seperation because all creatures will be perfected and united in the worship of God. As for if they would be saved without explicitly knowing of Christianity, that is a question asked also about humanswhich is called the 'fate of the unlearned', but, in short, even while ignorant of the true religion you have a fundamental understanding of morality, which is called conscience, it is the law written in the hearts of the gentiles, and you can therefore be orientated towards the good and be saved.
 
There's nothing that says aliens fucked up their God-given free will and listened to their wahman after she got tricked by alien Lucifer-snek like humans did

Aliens could still be living in the direct presence of God in alien Eden. Which is all heaven is. Your soul in the direct presence of God. Which is the bestest possible state of existence. Or some of them could. Others could have committed sin and needed redemption
 
I am going to put forward my baseless and probably blasphemous idea that I just made up: God is going to pit each species with a soul that winds up in heaven against each other in a giant free for all race war just to see what happens. There will be biblically accurate angels handing out weapons and ammunition.
 
It is really strange to me that this sort of Earth-is-all-that-matters idea seems to be so common. There are 100 billion stars in the milky-way galaxy alone. What do you think they're *doing* up there, from a religious perspective?
 
If they accept Jesus as their savior, then they go to heaven. If God has not sent his son to their planet yet, then I guess they go to purgatory or something until the day of judgment.
 
If they exist, then god made them, therefore they go to heaven. The alternative is that they exist and god did not make them, which means either A. God does not exist or B. God is not absolute. The third possibility is that they don't exist in which case who fuckin cares.

So, it looks like God didn't create any aliens, so even if they exist, they weren't created by him and therefore cannot enter heaven. In other words, "God created Adam and Eve, not Zardam and Zleeve".
