Well, the novel also delves into the theme of religion. Smith starts his own 'church' based on his Martian - influenced beliefs. This new religious movement challenges the established religious institutions on Earth. It makes people think about the nature of faith, the role of religious leaders, and the impact of new religious ideas on society as a whole.
Valentine Michael Smith is the most important character. He is a human born on Mars and brought back to Earth. His unique upbringing shapes his views and actions on Earth. Another important character is Jill Boardman. She is one of the people who helps Smith adapt to Earth and also becomes romantically involved with him.

A great 'stranger in a strange land' novel is 'Slaughterhouse - Five' by Kurt Vonnegut. The protagonist, Billy Pilgrim, becomes 'unstuck in time' and finds himself in various strange situations, including on the alien planet of Tralfamadore. He is like a stranger in these different realms, both in time and in space. 'The Martian' by Andy Weir also fits the bill. Mark Watney is stranded on Mars, a strange land indeed, and has to figure out how to survive while being completely alone, a stranger in this harsh environment.
One reason could be that these documents often deal with things that go against our common sense or the known laws of nature. Let's say a document about a person who claims to have time - traveled. The very idea is so far - fetched that it makes the document seem very strange. Also, some documents might record events or phenomena that are so rare or unique that they seem like they belong in a fictional story. For example, a document about a strange creature that has features not found in any known species.
They often do it through the perspective of the main character. For example, in 'Stranger in a Strange Land', Michael Valentine Smith is from Mars and his view of Earth's culture is very different. He doesn't understand things like money or the complex social hierarchies. His confusion and attempts to make sense of it show the cultural differences. In 'The Left Hand of Darkness', the envoy from another planet has to grapple with a society where gender roles are not like his own. This allows the author to explore how different cultures view and construct gender.
