[QUOTE="The Grumpy Celt, post: 3168581, member: 1019"] The rules are always the same, everywhere and all the time. If humanity cannot afford trials for collaborators now and genocide against an enemy is the best option now and absolute martial law is the best way to operate now, then that is the way things will always be. The belief that things will change or improve does not reflect realty. The democratic society of the colonies – that reflection of America the writers made – failed, but they all kept acting like it did not. They need to grow up, get rid of their moral squeamishness. There are similarities between the Aenied and Battlestar. At the end of the Aenied, the refugees from fallen Troy conquer parts of Italy, setting the stage for the creation of Rome later. I hope the writers and producers have the Battlestar crew at least attempt to conquer Earth. Edit: Something occurred to me about the “missing’ five Cylon models. What if there are only a few individual specimens of those models, or for that matter what if those models are “unique” individuals? We seem to be assuming that there will be gobs of those missing models simply because there are gobs of the known seven models. However, that might not be the case. If there is only a single unit of, say, Model Eight, active at a time and copies are kept around incase the live unit dies, and other Cylons are not programmed to recognize them… Then anyone might be a Cylon.
