For that matter, doesn’t one of the Gospels (or several of them) indicate
that Christ departed for other lands to spread the Word? Why must
these “lands” mean nations?

Hi Dave! Glad to see that your prose is as eloquent now as it was five long
years ago. You should get paid by the word, if you ask me. And how did you
get to be such exquisite fashion sense?
Anyway, I think I’ve found that passage you were talking about. Feast your
eyes on John, Chapter 10:
I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me— just as the
Father knows me and I know the Father—and I lay down my life for the sheep. I
have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen. I must bring them also. They
too will listen to my voice, and there shall be one flock and one shepherd.
Granted, it doesn’t explicity say “aliens,” but it clearly talks about sheep
“not of this sheep pen.” Sort of resonates with “not of this Earth,” don’t
you think?
Dave!

The idea of other flocks is a major component of Mormonism. The Mormons hold
that the Book of Mormon describes events surrounding another flock before and
after a visit from Jesus (after he was crusified). I am not completely certain
but I think Mornon doctrine says there were other flocks including other worlds.
