Ridley has stated that he CONSIDERED this theory.
CONSIDERED ONLY. So the theory is not true. They thought about it then steered clear. AND THANK HEAVENS THEY DID!
it's a tragically bad theory to try to wrap everything up into the Jesus being a frakking spaceman.
Do you agree?

This article mentions more plausible reasons as to why the Engineers were coming here 2000 years ago.

I don't think he denies that Jesus was a space jockey either. I think it's implied and I wouldn't say it's not true till its definitely said so.

It's not directly in there, merely implied. It's up to the individual to interpret any way they want.

No indeed. But he was made to have a more 'human' form!

"Movies.com: You throw religion and spirituality into the equation for Prometheus, though, and it almost acts as a hand grenade. We had heard it was scripted that the Engineers were targeting our planet for destruction because we had crucified one of their representatives, and that Jesus Christ might have been an alien. Was that ever considered?
RS: We definitely did, and then we thought it was a little too on the nose. But 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 be the Roman Empire. And they were given a long run. A thousand years before their disintegration actually started to happen. And you can say, “Lets’ send down one more of our emissaries to see if he can stop it. Guess what? They crucified him."
It's better if what Ridley Scott ACTUALLY said gets known than an approximation or interpretation that puports to speak for the man himself.

I'm not going to argue about this, I think many aspects of the movie are open to individual interpretation.
What's so ridiculous about the so called (by us) Jesus being some sort of manufactured entity/emissary sent to us?
Someone most likely 'manufactured' us & we will probably never find out the who or why of it.

The truth- LOL.
Gunwoman- not trying to argue dude. Apols. But you have it there from Rids! Considered it... Then scrapped...
June 18, 2012
I don´t see anywhere that it was completly scrapped. Maybe it is implied, but never actually said.

to me it says they got rid of the idea:
"We definitely did, and then we thought it was a little too on the nose. .."
... but ok it's not EXPLICITLY said.
Other's opinions on this?

I take from it that Ridley decided NOT to imply that Jesus was an extraterrestrial, and I have no religous training or faith at all...Ridley clearly says it was "too on the nose"
June 18, 2012
The Jesus Theory you're referring to is that Jesus was an Engineer/was sent by the Engineers?
June 18, 2012
It can go both ways. As someone else said, it is open to interpretation. It being a moronic idea doesn´t rule out that it could be true.
