Hello folks,

I thought I'd come here and put in a plug for a new podcast, Trekosophy, where we discuss the intersection of Star Trek and Philosophy. If you have any interest in participating, let us know. If you have any topics you'd like discussed, also let us know.

bm359, I think you have a good idea. However, I do not have a good topic to suggest, at the moment. I look forward to future discussion, though.

What kind of "philosophy"? Give us an example.

"The future is in the hands of those who explore... And from all the beauty they discover while crossing perpetually receding frontiers, they develop for nature and for humankind an infinite love." - Jacques Yves Cousteau

Do you mean something like: Would you rather serve on a small ship or a large ship or at a starbase? Or, would you prefer to discsuss something like comparing the Klingon and the Cardassian or Romulan government styles?

The idea of the Vorta worshipping a God they can see as a superior faith than others who worship gods they cannot see seems like a good idea ro me.

But, if you can see someone with your eyes, doesn't that make them seem a bit less superior than someone who is beyond seeing? Flesh and blood seem weaker to me than a spiritual being.
