I am not sure why this is posted under Christianity, since Christianity deals with earth and the relationship of people on this planet and thier relationship to Christ.
The bible does not address any other planet except for the new earth to be created after this planet is destroyed.
so from a christian, does not matter, if there is, there is, if not, nope.
And we can not determine if there are sinners or not, if Adam had not sinned there would not have been sin on this planet.

I will attempt to enlighten you as to the reason I posted this question here. The reason I posted here was because I was thinking that Christians probably would be the most knowledgeable about the subject. However, if I was wrong and, in your opinion, I shouldn't have posted here, please forgive me. Now if you would be so kind as to point this poor ignorant soul in the right direction to a forum where this question would be more appropriate, I would be most grateful.
In my opinion, it is a perfectly relevant question to Christianity.
Not relevant to you eternal salvation, but relevant for curiosity's sake none-the-less.
Sin is inherent to humans. So when you are talking about other "beings" are you referring to humans or beings in a general sense?
With the information that we have from the Bible, your question cannot be answered with any degree of certainty. We can surmise though. In my opinion, the universe is a pretty big place for just one lonely planet. I personally believe that there are other planets with humans doing pretty much the same things that we are; trying to become more like God, our Heavenly Father. I don't dwell on it though. I try not to make guesses as to the nature of God's plan. Fascinating to think about though.

First let me thank you for not making me feel like my question was out of place here, as Chuck did. I would imagine that God could create beings other than human, maybe in His likeness, or maybe not. I would like other Christians views on the subject.
only god is without sin. so, if there were other beings, they would be sinners too, coz only god has the perfection of no sin, so if there were other intelligent species somewhere, i hope theyve found god too, for their own sake.
funnily enough, i used to toy with the idea of god being an alien, like two years ago, but thats a silly theory, coz he created us in his own image.

The angels were created sinless and those who have remained faithful to God, two-thirds of them, remain sinless.
Also, if there are other material intelligent creatures who were created sinless as mankind was, it doesn't necessarily follow that they have fallen into sin via disobedience as we have. In fact, wouldn't it be ironic if we were the only ones who have?
