What I got from seeing this thunderous stuborn belief in religion and first and second comings, it that perhaps we are a GMO of apes by some ET species reprogrammed for mining and grabbing (accidentally discovering caffeine and inventing capitalism along the way) some rare resources or for terraforming for a different species for when they come again (this second coming shit I keep hearing about, which seems reason enough to justify the Palestian genocide and now litterally lighting the world on fire).
