The Bible reminds me of Star Trek

That episode where an entire world's culture is based on one book: a violent and very poorly written dime novel. There's a similar episode in Star Trek NG where a hotel is a depressing trap based on one cheesy book. The moral is to read more than one book.

Voyager had the Ferengi posing as Gods in one episode and spreading capitalism as their religion with their book the Rules of Acquisition.
And the Stargate series is completely based on false gods.

@canusernamebemyusername You mean the Republicans are all just Ferengi? Brilliant! 😆

@spjennifer When they first showed up in the star trek universe they are described as being based on the worst of capitalism so pretty much.

@canusernamebemyusername I think the best parody of religion was an episode called Distant origin (Star Trek Voyager). Knowledge of true origin is forbidden because it would threaten the widely held belief.
