How racist is Prometheus?

Is Pro just the latest example of some people's reluctance to accept H. sapiens evolved in Africa? Reminds me of an interview with Chinese pseudo-scientists who invented a kind of sino-proto-ape that they would rather be related to than Africans. They were gutted when the DNA results came in: African.

I don't see how the film promotes any reluctance to accept that modern man evolved in Africa.  If we came from Engineers, may they 'seeded' the Rift Valley first.  In the absence of any evidence, I can't see anything suggesting racism.

By the way, that's a damn fine comment, man. Great points made, I agree with you!
