    I love how the writers are re-imagining Earth's most ancient history. The storyline of humans (mammals) being forced underground by extremely hot, dangerous weather, and the serpents (dinosaurs) taking over is the story of the early Triassic, which is also the era that evolved motherhood, both by protecting the leathery eggs (dinosaurs) and live birth underground (marsupial mammals).

    I enjoyed Raised By Wolves. It has something of an old-school pulp science fiction about it along with a little Weird Tales thrown in and gave me a sense of wonder which doesn't often happen with modern scifi for me. It's not perfect though I found for me it held up enough to watch it through to the end. Another season at least would have been a good thing for the story though I doubt we'll get it now. I'm glad I stumbled on to your video as it's given me the itch to watch the show once more.

      The Romans also described the Christians as Atheist, since a refusal to worship, and outright denial of the existence of, the gods was seen as a fundamental rejection of religion and the divine. The fact that the Christians had their own god wasn't seen as important in light of their rejection of the polytheistic gods.
      Though the Sol Invictans, who were a Monotheist cult that believed all divine beings were aspects of the one supreme sun god, identified their god with the Christian one and opposed their persecution.

      One thing that everyone can agree on is that no matter how we see ourselves/humans in the future, we are the destroyer of worlds. We destroy earth and move on to another planet. Fast forward ten million years and we are moving on again. Fast forward a hundred million years and we start becoming the destroyer of universes. LOL.

    The story actually appears to have a lot in common with the story of Cadmus. He comes to a new land and attempts to found a city. He builds a temple to the moon and then sacrifices a cow. However, when he sends his men to get water, they are all killed by a serpent belonging to Ares the god of war. In many descriptions, this giant serpent lives in a lush paradise. Cadmus slays the serpent then he plants the teeth of the serpent in the ground and a fearsome race of men rises up. They kill each other until only two remain. Thus the city of Thebes is founded but it eventually leads to ruin; think Oedipus and how his sons Eteocles and Polynices kill each other and this leads to the death of their sister Antigone. Thebes seemingly remained historically trapped in cycles of greatness and then ruin

    22:00 After watching this video a second time, this got me thinking what you said: that maybe the same was happening on Kepler - it was being destroyed, but by snakes, and its inhabitants desperately did exactly what Campion did when he reprogrammed the necromancer to go to Kepler. After all, they had the technology to do so, just the way it happened the opposite way. Their plan worked and Earth got populated, until the war broke out and humans got back without knowing they're originally from Kepler.

      Agreed - I didn't stop the episode to look more closely at the cave paintings, but after seeing that detail I am sold on this theory. It makes you wonder if this is something that has happened several times, an endless ouroboros - like in Battlestar Galactica - where the very last scene was the whole story starting over again in a far distant future.

      I mean Prometheus was aestethically pleasing, it was mysterious and fascinating, but it ultimately failed to deliver a compelling story and turned into a shitshow. I'm much more positive about Raised by Wolves, it's story is much more impactful and emotionally charged, I care about Campion, Mother and Father, about Mary, Paul, Vita and Tempest, it can be human, sweet, and even made me laugh from time to time. Also it finally drops the "Android Turns Bad and Kills Everyone" trope which we've seen so many times it has literally drained life from my body.
