>no human is that good and ethical

Actually I am. I act with honour and integrity, I have ideals and I stick to them. It's not even all that hard in modern society, particularly since I don't have writers thinking up dramatic dillemmae for me every week.

And people have changed in our ideals and level of eduction quite substantially over the centuries. Star Trek is about cultural evolution, not just technological. All Star Trek does is take some of the better ideals of modern society - integrity, democracy, diversity - and make them more pervasive.

It's not perfect, but - as the middle class part of our modern society might appear perfect to someone from 300 years ago, it might appear so to us now. People in Star Trek still annoy each other, fight, lie, cheat, forget to write to their parents as much as they should, fall in and out of love, grow old and die. 90% of our problems are still with them.

What they do have over us is generally more civility and cooperation, less realpolitik in government, few worries about supporting themselves or getting ahead, and the benefits of better medicine, travel and entertainment technology.

Dr Phlox? Flawless ethical standards? Are you kidding?

This is the guy who created a copy of one of the crew to cut up for spare parts, and who denied a cure for a deadly plague to a species on the grounds that 'as a scientist' he had a 'duty to evolution' - a bit of writing that promotes the idea that scientists are necessarily social darwinists, that they don't merely observe nature but demand that we emulate it, treating their observations as a kind of religion. This is exactly how Creationists imagine scientists to be, so having this image promoted by a Star Trek series of all things was utterly horrible.

Mirror Phlox didn't seem all that different from regular Phlox, he just lacked the same degree of restraint.

Hmm maybe this is a star trek were humans are just starting out exploring the galaxy and therefor they are more similar to and more flawed like real humans of this age.

Personally i allway dislike that Star Trek displayed a to perfect future.

Humans are not that good we are good bad and everything in between.

And when everyone is super ethical super people that are so nicety nice that they make your teeth hurt i just find it hard to relate to them. Human are suppose to do stupid thing they are suppose to blow shit up they are suppose to do good things.

So yeah i dislike Star Trek for much the same reason i dislike Superman no human is that good and ethical and it removes the characters completely form a reality i can relate to. And yeah sure its sci fi but it`s still pepole and teck cant change aouer nature.

But i kinda disliked Enterprise to as i hate time travel storys they just never make any sense at all.

Johnny rest in peace brother. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. I miss you bro. I miss those random calls to go throw the pigskin around or to simply grab a beer. You left me with the greatest gift possible and I thank you for that. Can't wait to see you up there one day and thank you in person........

My Dearest John...I'll never forget those times in high school that you've made me laugh. I hope you know how much I miss you and wish I can see you again and hug you. It's been so long since I've seen you last and all I remember is that sweet smile of yours. I think about you and feel you with me everyday and I hope you see how you have helped me make it through my most difficult moments in life. I only wish I was able to help you make it through your rough days. I believe everything happens for a reason and until I find out what the reason was for this, I will forever hold you dearly in my heart and I'll never forget the good times we had. You will always be my little angel. Goodbye until I see you again..

I am still playing PES 5 on the PS2. Best football game I have played so far. PES 6 and 2008 were a joke and to be honest, i haven't played fifa since like 2001. although i did try the fifa 09 demo earlier today and it was seriously pants! i hope PES 2009 is an improvement because im sick of having to switch my 360 and PS2 around at the back of my tv!

Well, if you don't like Tim McGraw, fine. That's your opinion. But then, what are you doing on the internet telling that to people who DO support him? If you don't like him, fine. Don't watch him, and don't listen to his music. But that does not affect those of us who do support him.

I worked with John for about a year and I'd have to say he was one of my favorite co-workers. He helped me get through so many problems I had and that I kept complaining about. He was my go-to guy even though he made fun of me a lot b/c I'd be a dork at work he always managed to put a smile on my face. We had this little joke where he was going to call me when I was 18 so he could take me out legally (haha God I miss him :( ) and I'm still waiting for that call even though it's been over a year. Me and him were a lot closer than a lot of people thought we were, I was supposed to call him that weekend before everything happened just because, but I got caught up with so many things that I didn't get a chance to give him a ring. I miss this guy so much, so many things at work remind me of him. My heart stopped when I got the phone call saying what happened and I was such a mess. John you have no idea how missed you are by everyone. I love ya and miss you dearly.

Tim McGraw is a fucking faggot. He kicks people out his show and threatens to punch them for doing nothing. He needs to get over himself and someone needs to take a baseball bat for the fucking smirk he always wears with his false sense of entitlement. He is a brain dead cocksucking country hick faggot. Nothing more. FUCK YOU TIM.

Yeah, I've never seen it even though I wrote "With the exception of EVE, SWG, and EQ2, most major MMOs today strip the player of character individuality." Dumbass.
