personally i consider my form of christianity to be much what the Essenes stored in the cache that was called the Dead Sea Scrolls, i have read most of one version of enoch and have another two (jewish and orthodox) to read yet, i have read Jasher and Jubilees, these are all from that cache, and there is also one i really want to read, Thomas (the doubter)

enoch is central though, and explicitly makes clear that angels are literally humans, and specifies also that they are tall, red/blonde hair and pale skin, and that breeding with our type of human resulted in giants, eg, Goliath

once all that started to seep into my mind i read the entire bible in a different way, now when i see the word Lord it doesn't necessarily mean The Lord it refers to "angels" who the author was interacting with, and when the author is suspicious of them, they call them "watchers" (eg, Daniel)

if you keep in mind that the angels had advanced science and technology, a lot of "miracles" are just the profit of their advanced knowledge and potentially devices they have. Lazarus, for example, because Jesus (who was as gestated as a surrogate within a "regular" human host Mary, performed by the angel called Gabriel) was trained by masters and other angels in many things and knew he was looking at a man in a coma, with extremely depressed breathing, and knew ways to trigger him to wake up... and the crucifixion... again... if you are interested in far out religious things, you know about the yogis who pierce their skin and can control their respiration and induce coma and recover from it... in coma, even with quite serious wounds, the onset of death can be delayed a very long time

and the flying chariots... well, i mean, idk what to say. these are of course the same thing as what legitimate sightings of UFOs see. i don't know exactly about the butt probe stuff but at least one account of this suggests that these ancient ancestors/"angel" humans have been living off planet for a long time and have a long running plan to rescue some of us from an event they know with precision by their astrophysics will be an extinction event coming up real soon, and they want us to be able to integrate with them "in heaven" as in "the heavens" as in ... out there...

and what else, oh yes, that literally jesus, was predicted to be the one who would achieve effective immortality and become one with the "mind of God"

what you said about catholic stuff, this all lines up pretty neat with it too, except for some key details like the nature of the angels physical existence, and the figurative meaning of the trinity, and so forth.
