Now if say in Star Trek Next Generation they managed to de-evolve an alien species I could accept that because it is the future and Star Trek, hence everything goes. Same for the DNA story.
But in Stargate it was established that Earth is basically like we know it to be in real life etc. etc. and not once was it described how we suddenly made such a "huge" step in order to be able to use these wonderous technology.
Also the same with the military stuff...so how come McKay (a civilian) is suddenly allowed to stay behind and protect civilians?
The mentioned points above is just a few of the scientific things that has bothered me for a while - hence the purpose of the previous thread.
The fact is I love the idea behind Atlantis and I absolutely adore SG-1, but surely the TPTB can't consider us to be naive and stupid to accept everything they throw our way at face value.
