Re: New Star Trek series staring Sir Patrick Stewart

So will this place it firmly in the post Romulus destruction era? And be the first canonical work that explores that time?

Re: Star Trek: Discovery Season 2 trailer and panel

That seems to be a common feeling when watching Discovery it seems. For all the mixed feelings I think that however we feel about it now and end up feeling about it, that the creators did do their jobs. They made a engaging show that got people talking about Star Trek again. I won't begrudge them th...

And it was patronizing rebuttal to an assertion that was never made.

Re: Regarding Tolerance

Yes. If you are under the belief that a fetus is an individual with rights, then that would be an exception to the rule, however we're not talking about the women's right to autonomy vs the rights of something that cannot even be quite considered life yet. If you wanna make that thread go on ahead....

Re: Regarding Tolerance

The answer to "Where do one individuals rights end?" is "Where another persons rights begin." And how does that apply to, say, a woman's right to control her womb vs. a 25 week fetus' right to live? Don't worry, the question was rhetorical. I'm merely pointing out that things are slightly more comp...

Re: They're Planning a Reboot of Alf

The question now is if it's going to be a straight reboot or are they going to change the tone for modern skeptical audiences? Long explanations for things no one asked for likes Alf's race?
