1st para: False. Science has proven many times over that religion is logical.

Gets them lost for 8 seasons, never admitting its her fault for getting them lost and never being practical when opportunities to get home regularly occurred. Seriously (?) though, my favorite ST episodes are the ones from the last season of ST: Enterprise where they go into a mirror universe. I loved how it meshed w/ the original ST episodes, and especially loved the window into a much more badass world than the namby-pamby pearl-clutchers of the Federation. Perhaps someday Trump and Putin will be able to unite the 2 halves of the world that each will soon possess into 1 through a marriage between Barron and a Putin granddaughter. When their line is united in a Child who sits upon the Golden Throne shall we then venture boldly into space. Not as cringeing explorers, but as triumphant conquerors. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h67JpMyrOVE

The Picard series is moving at such a slow pace, its like watching paint dry.

Haven't watched it yet. As a die hard trek fan, the Expanse has destroyed Star Trek for me. It's like some Libertarian fan flick to me now because the Expanse is exactly how it would be. Humans will never get under one fkag | |||

Almost done with season 7 of DS9 now, rewatched most of TNG also. There are about 100x more episodes in both series that have the cast going back in time to some 40s or 50s era Earth than I ever remembered, the creators really were obsessed with this time period.
RIP Dax

I enjoyed Deep Space Nine.
But it was always in the shadow of the superior show: Babylon 5. | ||

Have you seen the episode yet with Worf's son Alexander as a clumsy teenager? There was so much potential there. | |||

I'm loving the series so far. We have seen enough episodic adventures of Picard. This feels like the last adventure.
I'm guessing the twin is actually some sort of borg evolution that the borg learned to make after taking control of data. That would make sense why they are on a borg cube and why 7 of 9 is involved. When they become "aware" that they are synthetic life, they go into kill mode & try to return to the hive. | ||
