   Well, I was thinking after talking to someone yesterday about things   
   to look for.  I have come to the conclusion lately that everything   
   media relatated is bogged down by minutia and probably needs to get   
   back to basics... like stories and the whole picture.

   In the first three there were religious aspects and the quest wasn't   
   so much in the end about the treasure but about humanity and the   
   "right thing to do".  Here, they weren't driven to go get treasure for   
   treasure sake and then ending up with learning from it, but instead,   
   they sought it out for a friend and curiosity (and because he got   
   fired and had nothing to do perhaps).  In the end, they return it   
   (sort of like the other three) but the reason wasn't for something   
   spiritual.  It was because they were guided to.  And the end was   
   supposed to be knowledge?  The one who wanted it most got killed or   
   vanquished to the unknown and the hero didn't even learn anything   
   (related to the artifact/scenario of the aliens).  And the aliens   
   COULD be considered a loss of God in a way depending on what you think   
   about creation.  So not a good choice.   
      
   You know what've been better?  The search for say Atlantis... but   
   really, what artifacts are in stories left that would be good?
