Knowing what I know about base humanity, I don't believe aliens were at all necessary in the creation of the global religions. We know what psychedelics do to us, what schizophrenia does. We have seen all kinds of cults start from nothing around the worship of particularly charismatic people. The perception of divinity is available entirely within our own brains, as is the willingness to follow and build institutions around those who appear or claim to have some kind of communication with whatever deity is in fashion. I still don't see why hyperdimensional entities would have any interest in human activity. They would see us as miniscule.
