Allah (or rather a transcendent god) makes more sense...? Thoughts?

Actually every major religion has some means to address sin.

From christian point of view, you are correct. Since Jesus chose to preach only to Jews others were meant to die in sin.

If one studies the gospel it becomes apparent that christians also didn't have any easy way.

If you know ANY other religion which solves the problem of sin in a reasonable way, please let me know. I would give you a sincere thanks.

The way to deal with sin for a normal Christian is super super super easy. That is what the Gospel is about. This is because the hard part has already been done.

I have to admit this, I am basing this argument on an insight from a Christian.

I asked about the theology of the multiverse, and he responded with the question would it make sense for Jesus to save alll of the multiverse, or just us on this planet.

If there is a God, and Jesus is God, then it seems like he is a God only for us, here, on Earth.

But if there are other lifeforms, then it makes sense that God is not just here for us, but for every "intelligent lifeform".

If ET civilisations exist, and they have religion, maybe they believe in avatars (divine manifestations in their own bodily form)...

But for me the idea of a transcendent God, one god for the whole universe or multiverse, makes sense.

One god for all possible worlds, not just ours.

Jews, Christians and Moslems all agree on this one. There is only one God for the whole universe.

I don't know who you have been talking to, but if they say any differently then they are mistaken.

You know the idea? Do you know WHY can't God do evil?
I am afraid you do not get the idea yet.

Yes, because it isn't part of his nature. I understand more than you think.

Now, do you have any scripture at all to back up your claims about God not having other children out there in the universe or not?

If you mean the exact human like us, then no. Except the old logical argument I gave: The Lord Jesus is NOT going to die for human multiple (or many many) times (in order to solve the problem of sin).

If you mean non-human but other so-called 'intelligent" beings (in fact, it is a wrong term. human is MORE than being intelligent), then the Bible stresses again and again that we, human, are God's "special" creation. That implies the uniqueness of human.

Yes, evil is not part of God. So God can not be evil nor do evil nor create evil. So are many other natures of God. As a result, God can NOT be or do many other things. Many people do not understand this and claimed God is not omnipotent.
