So if not the Engineers, as Prometheus suggested, what's next in the hierarchy?
Does this all go back to Ridley's earlier comment about the Engineers being 'dark angels', and that like the fallen angels of the Bible they didn't create us but were intent on corrupting us as a creation out of jealousy?
Does their seeming creation of the xenomorph in the Ampule Room mural reveal that this was their plan, to create a form of life able to corrupt/ destroy us akin to the Sons of God/ Watchers laying with the Daughters of Men to create/ infect the bloodline of David with the monstrous Nephilim?
The Engineers did not create humans because they themselves are human.
In Prometheus' opening scene we do see them seed life on a desolate world, but it ain't human life they are seeding - answer to what kind of life they are seeding is in the movie.
@ BigDave - it ain't no misquote. Ridley is actually giving fans one hell of a big clue here, a big piece of the jigsaw. Same with Lindelof's recent statement that "paradise" is not the Engineer Homeworld.
