So Ridley read the script and told Dan O'Bannon to get rid of "that trash" which included pyramid on that planet where they were supposed to find alien eggs; only to embrace the whole concept in "Prometheus". Not just that but I watched that long doc on "P" blu-ray and they wrote the script in a way that "Ridley opened his office and let people passing by inside to say what they want to see in the movie" and the movie does look like that.

Actually I was thinking more like this:
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
