Look at the hats they wear in the vatican.
They are fish heads.
Why in the hell would these people be secretly worshipping an ancient fish god?
Mithra. Dagon. Jesus. Lucifer. Moloch. Ra.
Santa.
The beast system is a star system. Our suns twin with its own planets. Every so often we cross paths and bad shit happens.
The rapture. The flood. Hell. War in heaven. All the same event. All the same story but different locations, descriptions, names etc. Lucifer gave us fire? Well he set everything on fire so I guess.
