Quotes
Sheldon: So if God's plan is to save all of the universe, that means a race of octopus aliens light years away could only be saved by Jesus?
Pastor Jeff: Sure.
Sheldon: Even though they never would've heard of him?
Pastor Jeff: Yes.
Sheldon: Even though his appearance might be terrifying to them?
Pastor Jeff: What? Why would his appearance be terrifying?
Sheldon: He has four limbs and they have eight.
Mary: Okay, that's enough.
Pastor Jeff: No, no! I prayed people would be more interested in my sermons. I suppose I should've been more specific. Sheldon, if these creatures were born without sin, they don't need to be saved by Jesus.
Sheldon: What if an octopus Adam and Eve brought sin to their world? Would they need to be saved by a human Jesus or an octopus Jesus?

I personally thought that the episode was very relatable, cuz I too at several points in life have lost faith in something I used to love.
