BSG... is a terrific show... but the incorporation of religion in the show is, in my opinion cliched and half-hearted... my only real criticism of the show. Number Six spouts a whole range of religious jargon but with no real conviction, except as a seduction tactic. The Roslin/Messiah thing feels like a Dune rip off... been there, seen it...
Why I'm saying all this on a Sheppard/Weir thread... I'm not sure...
But my impression is that the writers tend to deal with it on a cursory level on Stargate. Even in 38 minutes... I think the potential with Teyla and the Athosians have largely been wasted.
