tech though.

Fate, those joyrides could be explained as ancient astronauts or such.
And part of me thinks that Baltar may have grown tired of just being a farmer
and taken up technology again, eventually building a little place called
Atlantis.
Damn. I'm doing the writers' jobs.

Martin,
u know i agree with B about the EVE thing with Hera, but 2 further it, if
150,000 years later they found her remains (which means she died as a little
girl, because the angel baltar said "she lived with her human father and cylon
mother) then her dna did not get in the gene pool. also, they sent the fleet
into the sun, but what about all the raptors and vipers that stayed on earth?
are we suppose 2 believe that after the first generation of galacticans died,
the children did not say "hey, i am going 2 take one of the vipers for a ride"
or "let's build a city and make more raptors, hell i want a battlestar too!"
Fate.

B, in the aftermath, there was an aura of peace and LUUUUUUUUUV
throughout the Fleet.
And probably a lot of chamalla being done. :P (And don't get me started about
that entire Hera thing...)

The religious aspects didn't bother me but the whole Hera as Eve bugged me.
African primitives receiving heavenly DNA really rubbed me the wrong way.
And the sheer stupidity of giving up their tech because Lee Adama said so was
mind boggling. The Quorum would have bitched about what color toilet paper to
use during a shooting war with a genocidal enemy but they all agreed to that
plan? Give me a break.
