My short(est) summary

So I'm used to writing long ass theories. But in a recent reply I was actually pleased with the way that I had come up with a pretty short and sweet way to summarize what I think is the MAIIN idea (or "moral of the story" so to say), that Ridley and company where trying to present. This isn't really anything at all different than many of my recent posts on my theories but I just like the way I worded it, and felt it had a nice ring to it and got my point across. But before I start going on and on like I tend to do I'm just gonna go ahead and paste it here, so go ahead and read and reply if you wish. - - - QUOTE: I think that the director was using signs that we saw as "Christian" because it's one of the most, if not THE most recognized religion. So with the film making trick of repetition to confirm our intuitions, Ridley constantly is reminding us and assuring us that religion "in general" has a big big role in the movie. I just personally believe it has to do with us needing to understand that Shaw is battling with some serious internal issues ( no pun intended) with her religious beliefs, and she most likely keeps switching back and forth from (wanting to believe in a pure, all forgiving God) and (maybe we where just created by alien beings for some sinister reason, or for some reason we just can't understand). My main point is, I don't think that Ridley would be so brave as to replace any real specific religion with an Engineers race ( such as replace "Jesus Christ" with "Engineer sent to Earth". But instead, he's trying to portray the characters as being in constant conflict in their minds relating to their own religious beliefs and doubts. Put it this way, lets say: 1 - You are (insert religion here) , because that's how you where raised, but 2 - Now you're in a future where technology has taken the human race to distant planets , and faster than light travel, so perhaps humans are just part of a random evolution 3 - And on top of that, you also discover that there is indeed intelligent life out there and they may even be our genetic creators. That's 3 pretty damn big things to have racing through your mind, especially if you're Shaw and you've experienced everything from her point of view.
