And I don't think Pandora has to be a Christian to understand your stance. My best friend in high school was a different religion and I understood his stance even though I disagreed. The reason it didn't bother you in BSG was because the BSG religion was based on the ancient Greek mythology and a very vague God
Also am I the only one that is getting frustrated by this conversation? Honestly, I just want to make right with everyone, make sure there is no hate frustration or anger between any of us and just move on. I have no problems with anyone here. Even though some of the things you said I totally disagree with, doesn't meen I'm mad at you. Yeah this conversation is just bothering me the longer it goes. So if it's cool with everyone else I'd like to end it here. Unless there's bitterness between anyone that needs to be talked out.

A few things:
1. Ha! The first Homeworld Command photo has the address of HC on it! 900 Virginia Ave. SW, Washington DC, 20024. Google Maps indicate no such place but there is a 900 on D st. that is right next to Virginia Ave. SW. We must go there and play pretend.
2. The renewal/cancellation decision may only come in early 2010? But the writers usually start coming up with stories before that! What does that mean? Could production be pushed back until MGM and/or Syfy make a decision?
3. Homeworld Command computers use Windows Vista. XD

Originally posted by major davis View PostTo Christians it's the holy trinity and nothing else. God empowered Jesus, not the ancients. Sci fi should not challenge our religious beliefs, it should expand our ideas amd spur our imagination, but not try to change our mind on what we believe in. No I just don't like when a show tries to promote a religion or demote a religion. And TPTB should know enough to know that Christians believe the Judeo-Christian is the one and only omni-powerful God. Like what you suggested is that Jesus needed the ancients help to save mankind. That is also an insult to Christianity in a sci fine world or not(no offense).

I like the set of Homeworld Command. Now, is that where the I.O.A, etc. will operate? Obviously it would be the place for Homeworld Security, but I wonder if the I.O.A will be there as well or they will have their own place. Hmm...I like the idea of the Homeworld Command though.
There are no regrets. Thank you Brad Wright and everyone else for SGU,
and the amazing Stargate franchise in general.

Besides, I feel what will happen to 'that' character isn't gonna exploit or 'slap Christianity in the face', but instead embrace it in a specific character. I know you said it bothers you MD, but too be honest you shouldn't let it bother you. You believe what you believe. You know what you know. Hold that strong. That's all you need to do.
