Prometheus ditches the theory about a singular God who created humans to introduce viewers to a deadly reality where humans were actually created by an advanced species of aliens known as the Engineers. But unlike a loving God, the Engineers hate their own creation and decide to wipe out humans. This origin story adds a layer of cosmic horror that extends beyond the Xenomorphs.
