Better reasons to quit Christianity

Apologies to all BSG fans, 'cos I know how popular the reboot series is, but personally I tuned out when Starbuck rebooted into a girl and Adama gained a first name. Cheesy as it now looks and even as it did at the time, I'll take the original series any day.

Speaking of cheese, and I apologise again for straying off topic, there's a brand of such fermented curdled comestible over here called Leerdammer, which some have pointed out sounds uncannily like Lee Adama. Coincidence?

Yes.

Yes, having her colonial viper explode and then having her appear months later with no memory of the event and then having her find her own charred remains in a crashed viper on some alien planet was cheesy, since there was no explanation given as to how this was possible.

Hmm, I didn't realise that, most probably because I watched the feature-length pilot episode of the rebooted BSG with great interest, thinking "well, something's bound to happen in a minute" and I kept thinking that right up to the point when it ended. I decided not to bother with it after that. No, I was thinking more along the lines of when Starbuck looked uncannily like Dirk Benedict:



Not in any sexually-curious or even 'bromance' way; I just feel the series had more dramatic impact back then. In many ways I'm a traditionalist when it comes to classic sci-fi. Hence my totally-unrelated disappointment with J J Abrams' Marmite version of Star Trek (i.e. you either love it or loathe it).

Sorry to keep going off-topic. Consider my interruptions a pause for reflection.
