Also, all the ST franchises totally ignored religion, as if belief had died in the future. This is in stark contrast to Babylon 5, which had several characters of faith and several episodes dealing with the religious influence in the future.\Mr. Rodenberry was one of those strange people whose belief that the universe was the result of random, meaningless chance led to a romantic notion of man creeping up and up the ethical ladder, spitting in the face of the randomness that created him to become a gradually more ethical and humane species (these are the same people who swoon at the "martyrdom" of Galileo even though martyrdom and even truth would have no objective moral value in such a universe).
The advocates of meaninglessness are so up-tight. If it weren't for their childish rejection of sexual taboos, they'd worry themselves into distraction.

Thanks to all of you for your thoughts so far. I was a little nervous and didn't know how my vanity would be received.
Thank you all for your kind support and encouragement.
