There is a book out I recommend on this topic by Dr. Paul Thigpen, called "Extraterrestrial Intelligence and the Catholic Faith: Are We Alone in the Universe with God and the Angels?"
In short, though, Christ's sacrifice to redeem humanity does not preclude, or prevent other plans for other species.
Some say the government is keeping aliens evidence from the world because it would shatter people's religious faith. If that is true, they are very, very wrong. Thigpen is convinced aliens have visited, but remains open to the possibility he's wrong. Most of the book is spent covering the theology of the matter.

Until God says the aliens have souls, I can't assume they do. The Bible only says Humans.
Not that I believe we will ever meet aliens. The universe is for mankind.
Animals have souls, but they don't have rational souls. Only humans have rational souls.
As to you second point, that's an entirely possible solution, so to speak, for the Fermi Paradox.
Retarded. For one thing it's unverifiable, thus unknowable. But here you are pushing that nonsense because you can't think for yourself
Lot's of things are unverifiable, you fuckwit, such as whether you are real or just a brain in jar in a simulation. But, here you are thinking that you're smart or something.
So u admit you're wrong. Thank you
Rational aka reasoning implies agreement vs disagreement over suggested? Hold your breath and reason about agreeing (want) vs disagreeing (not want) to breathe and wait until the need to breathe will force you to adapt.
What if reason doesn't represents something humans have; but the consequence of them choosing to ignore perceivable for suggested?
Tell me...what within perceivable nature requires those within to reason over? What does it matter to the process of dying (perceivable) if the living (perceiving) are agreeing or disagreeing with being processed?
What if....possible problem (living) within definite solution (process of dying)?
a) PAR'ADOX, noun [Greek beyond and opinion.] aka being able to have opinions (living) about beyond (process of dying) allows partial to grow discernment while being within whole...unless ignored.
b) what if it's not EV'IDENCE, noun [Latin evidentia, from video, to see.] aka being able to perceive perceivable that is lacking, but the comprehension of each perceiving partial about the perceivable whole?
c) Enrico Fermi's "advisors" aka Max Born and Paul Ehrenfest...both jewish.
Interesting....
Meanwhile....AN'IMAL, noun [Latin anima, air, breath, soul.] - "an organized body, endowed with life and the power of voluntary motion; a living, sensitive, locomotive body".
On the other hand...HU'MAN, adjective [Latin humanus; Heb. form, species.] What does form imply? Formed (life) within flow (inception towards death), hence ANIMATED.
What if the few suggest humans vs animals to distract the many from comprehending to be animal (animated) human (form)?
