From:

I'm an atheist as well, and generally on the anti-religion side. So far I think I'm a little uncomfortable because with what little information we have here, it could easily fall into the Christian god mold (I did notice that the "other side" was the greco/roman-esque polytheism), and I feared what the show's message might be. In general sf/fantasy doesn't "take sides" on the religion issue, but you never know. And I guess I'm just paranoid enough to believe that the US could fall in love with a good show both because of AND in spite of its strong pro-religion stance.

So this is one reason for my discomfort, another being the fanaticism depicted by um... what's her name, the blonde female cylon. It's truly scary to me, that kind of fanaticism.

But since it is sf/f, I'm pushing ahead with it, and hoping that the developments will be ones that I can support...

I will definitely be posting more about the show as I watch, and HAHA, I'm sure we'll get into further exciting discussions! =D
