I don't think any "liberal" Christian would have too many probelms with religion in TOS.

But, for anyone to think of evolution as a blasphemy, but think it is ok to say "life here began out there" seems to be holding a contradictory stance. Sure, it is only a show, but these were the days of von Daniken, and "Chariots of the Gods."


I find the "flawed humanity" approach of the new show to be more likely to have redemptive themes. With the pagagon of virtue characters in TOS, there is no inner struggle, no coming to terms with faith in the face of catastrophe.
