First thing that struck me is that the protagonist is called Marty (MARtY). They have also purposely inserted the name Jesus Christ in some dialogues imo.
The passage where the plate "For Mary" can be seen happens at a very specific time, confirming again the link between Mary, the mother of God and 911. However, for the masons, it's more of a process than a specific man.

There was a "clear" reference to the Wizard of Oz but even though, I could identify the coward and the brainless, I don't find the parallel that relevant compared to Mary and Jesus.

At some point toward the end, doc says that only 7min and 22 seconds are left before the lightning hit the clock tower. (22/7=PI) There was a lot of attention given to the numbers, for instance, the whole movie is 116 min and it ends at 1h51 (Jesus Christ = 151), the idea for the time machine was found on the 11/5 1955
Of course, there is an association between lightning and God. There are some movies about time loops of the same day or series like Westworld where everything is reset everyday. We could really be stuck in a time l∞p, compelled to relive the same live over and over until we do what is expected of us.
oh and ive watched bttf over 500 times
