For those new to the forum and haven't seen TOS in years or ever:

Yes religion is a very important issue in TOS. It would appear from the mini it will be an important issue in a future series. Where Moore is going with religion is hard to tell but that he intends to say something is obvious. I speculated about the Al-queda/radical Islam similarities to the cylon attitude toward religion expressed in the mini. I also see the colonials having the modern secular state attitude to religion so far. The government brings out religion and prayer as a background but they do not believe or practice. As such government officials use religion to motivate those they lead but in reality do not respect the religious beliefs they quote. Maybe the mini series will show the colonials rediscovering their faith or possibly it will show all religion in a negative light with no real gods or God. I hope this is the battle of good versus evil we had in TOS but who knows at this point where it is going.
