Message: <blockquote data-quote="Flexor the Mighty!" data-source="post: 2530016" data-attributes="member: 1013">The main thing I've had a problem with was Roslyn's insistance that everything should go on like their culture and species wasn't on the brink of extinction every second of every day for the most part, then flipping over to the opposite end like you said.  For example she should have tight control over the remaining media and anything that could represent a possible threat to the unity and survival of the fleet.  She should have declared martial law IMO.  Because its necessary.  Anyone who isn't working towards the goal of safeguarding the fleet and by extension humanity is a threat to that very survival.  So for example I'd have spaced Zarek as well due to his actions, or imprisoned him again at the very least.  Endangering the fleet would be a capital crime so would be being a toaster.  I doubt most people would have a problem with that if they thought such actions would keep them safe from a concrete threat of death coming at any second. Martial Law isn't cylon victory, cylon victory is the destruction of the Galactica and the fleet, leaving only the small groups of survivors on the nuked planets to slowly die of attrition and rad poisoning and thus ending humanity. What proves that the Cylons are sentient beings, in an individual sense.  Aren't they more of a group entity in terms of the human models?  Did "Sharon" die when shot by the deck crew woman?  No, one of her many vessels stopped functioning, but that consciousness lives on in the vast number of other identical synthetic bodies.  At least that is the way I see it.</blockquote>
