Having just watched Evangelion 1.11 and 2.22 .... uh ... well ... you know ... he may have a point.
To be fair, you haven't selected your everyday, normal, slice of life stuff, you went straight to NGE. wew
I don't know, I wouldn't boil down cinema to "Yeah I've watched Fight Club and movies are satanic, yo"
Evangelion is famous for just throwing in random bible shit entirely because it sounded fancy, complicated, and mysterious. Most of it makes little sense once you look beyond the most broad strokes possible.
It's not random at all. SEELE is deliberately copying from scripture to engineer an artificial second coming type event.
Eva isn't all anime though. If you still want mechs watch some Gundam, I highly recommend Iron Blooded Orphans, that is a bit of a political drama, too.
But yeah, Eva is a bit weird, not even that big of a fan personally. Doubt it Matt Walsh ever really saw any anime and tbh: that's fine. Not everyone has to like everything, lol.
