   I'm not following your line of reasoning.  I said nothing about "enjoying"   
   the theme or not.  Of course you have a choice whether or not you like it.   
   I'm just stating a fairly obvious fact.  To deny that religion is a relevant   
   and central theme of this show is simply wrong.  Even on BSG...the   
   references to either Gods or God by the various character were a bit to   
   obvious to overlook.
