One theory is that laura AND galactica are both the dying leader.
they have a lot in common (are dying, are deeply loved by adama, were both infused with cylon 'blood', are leading the people, were given a vision of snakes- with laura it was a hallucination, with galactica it was Vipers, etc)
It's possible that we will lose both the ship and laura at the same time, which would fulfill the prophecy without the viewer ever really knowing which one the scrolls were speaking of specifically.
Buuut, i kind of side with you on this one. I think laura is *the* dying leader because of what the hybrid said.
This line is more important now than ever: "the dying leader will know the truth of the opera house"
because of the appearance of Daniel. the opera house comes back in this episode when Kara picks up the cassette tape of her dad's piano performance: Live at the Helice Opera House.
This is also why I don't think laura can be dead yet. The galactica is a ship. It does not have consciousness (no, i dont think the cylon goo constitutes consciousness =p) and therefore cannot "know." Laura's shared visions of, and involvement with the opera house is the best argument ive seen that she is in fact THE dying leader, if we are going to accept hybrid poetry as prophecy, which I'm willing to do after what they said about kara being the harbringer of death or whatever it was.
So if Laura will know the truth of the opera house...
I guess there is still a possibility that Laura is actually dead, considering that the opera house visions centered largely around Hera. Her last word being "Hera.." maybe she DID realize the truth. who knows?
i hope laura's not dead. She can't be dead. Not now.. NOT EVER!!
