A Theory about the show !
After seeing "Eye of Jupiter" I had developed a loose theory about the direction of the show. I am going off these facts;
1. One of writers said in an interview that the 5 five unseen cylon models are directly related to the temple of the five
2. In "EOJ" Roselyn was saying that the 13th tribe worshipped the "one they don't speak of" before Adama cut her off
3. The fact that very little information is given about the 13th tribe in the "ancient texts" and even they're name is a mystery
4. The planet Kobol was a site of a major disaster resulting in the exodus
5. The clues and artifacts left by the 13th tribe are very vague and seemed to be for people that know EXACTLY what to look for
6. The 13th tribe hasn't contacted the other 12 in thousands of years
7. The Cylons worship a god that is seemingly seperate from the Lords of Kobol
8. The 5 unseen models have little or no direct connection to 7 seen models and they're very appearance is a mystery to the other 7
Here goes;
The 13th tribe worshipped the "one they don't speak of" and that made them outcasts for whatever reason. This may have led to a huge war between them and the other 12 tribes resulting in the destruction of Kobol. They parted ways going as far away from the other 12 as possible. Since they were still one people they was still a little love between them all and the 12 tribes gave them the location of they're intended destinations but the 13 didn't do the same cause they did not want to be found. Along the way they set up markers leading the way to Earth but the were only decipherable by members of the 13th. When they reached Earth they kept whatever hatred they had for 12 tribes brewing for several centuries. (Look at our own world and see how people can hate each other for thousands of years over religion). They sent an expedition back to the colonies. When they got there who knows; but they were discreet and saw the recent war with the Cylons as a way to exact revenge without a direct confrontation. They instilled the belief of they're god in the cylons and set them loose. The 5 unseen models are copies of the 5 priests from the Temple of the Five. The rest is history.
There are some big holes in my theory
1. Details of they're journey in the ancients texts
2. It doesn't explain the view from Earth in the temple of Athena
3. Exactly how could they influence the Cylons to such a degree
4. The show's contradicting chronological numbers
This just a loose theory if someone can pick this apart please do cause I hope I'm 100% wrong. I love the show and want the 13th tribe to be this advanced civilization that welcomes them in open arms, refits the galactica and joins them in whooping the Cylons all the way back to they're homeworld and nuking it.
I hope the show shys away from all the supernatural,spiritual, philisophical *BS* and concentrates on what makes it great; the characters and the space warfare. Thanks
