I have seen apparent similarities between Destiny and the Bible in general. For example:
The collapse is like the Fall of Man. The Guardians are like Christians fighting sin. The Speaker is like the Bible itself, since he is sort of like the Traveler's word, and the Bible is God's word. Also, with TTK's recent release, the Darkness closes in, but the Light fights back and wins, which is like Jesus' return. The different factions are like different theological views.
If you do not believe in Jesus, God, or that the Bible is true, please be respectful and do not post hateful comments and just make a fool of yourself. Believe what you want.
I also realize that this doesn't completely align with Destiny's lore, and you need to understand that I am making this understandable for the average Destiny player.
Have a nice day and God bless you.

It is a possible design idea, and that is coming from me, a pagan, a believer of Norse gods, (now just saying I believe in these gods, and they are real in my mindset and in my beliefs, they don't have to be real in actual life, I see thunder and I literally see Thor, and not the marvel Thor by the way..., and just because I'm pagan doesn't mean I worship Satan too, and that doesn't mean I hate every Christian, just the ones that shove their believes down your throat, some of my best buds are Christian and Catholic, and they know I'm pagan too), anyways, sorry these are just clarifications from the questions that are asked a lot, but yeah that could be a design choice. Have a good one.
