Q: Why do the Engineers want to kill humanity on Earth?
A: The film clearly shows that Engineers created life on Earth and then guided humans throughout our development, one day hoping that we would come visit them. But we did something very bad. So bad, that it upset the Engineers. And according to the movie, whatever we did, happened two thousand years ago. The only thing that could be is that we killed Jesus, who apparently was an Engineer as well. Here is a quote from Scott:

“If you look at it as an ‘our children are misbehaving down there’ scenario, there are moments where it looks like we’ve gone out of control, running around with armor and skirts, which of course would bethe Roman Empire. And they were given a long run. A thousand years before their disintegration actually started to happen. And you can say, ‘Let’s send down one more of our emissaries to see if he can stop it.’ Guess what? They crucified him.”

#oh my god #mal read this #engineers as gods creating humans who hunt them out #in order to become gods by killing their creators; to know god is to destroy his godship #made even more literal in the fact that jesus; god made flesh #within this universe was himself an engineer #when we crucified jesus we crucified god #and thousands of years later when we went to hunt him down in the form of our creators #they punished us for that act of blasphemy #hubris of humanity as inherited hubris of the gods #this is literally a movie about godkilling #the hand that kills god must be withered and poisoned #the godkiller can never survive intact #and in this case the godkiller was humanity itself #left bereft and in constant agony over our creation #prometheus #meta #we are singing now while rome burns #never has that tag been more appropriate #godkiller #ilvalentinos #spoilers #prometheus spoilers
