    Uh… He wasn’t against allowing anyone to believe in a god of gods. He only took issue with people worshipping “The Picard” and Ardra scamming.

      Let’s be real. Picard probably worships the koala.

          Wait, I thought we all did. Which is why I suggested a superior being such as JLP also does.

            Fair enough. May your day be blessed by the holy breath of eucalyptus.

              And may you always feel his weird double thumbed hands guiding you in your daily mod report decisions. Channel your inner Dukat.

        Nah. There is a whole omnipotent being with a massive crush on him and Picard treats him like a nuisance he deals with at regular intervals. First thing he did when Q got briefly depowered was put him in the brig.

        Picard knows the Koala is real but he has zero respect for cosmic marsupials in general.

      He knew Ardra was a phony, but still passed up the opportunity.

      That takes some restraint and willpower, as opposed to Will-power, cause we all know Riker would.

          While I don’t doubt he (or Picard) could have bagged Cindy Crawford, you can tell they weren’t in the same room based on lighting and shadows.

            Why would you expect them to be in the same room for the cover of some TV Guide in the first place?

      He gave a speech about how they had moved past religion and he wasn’t going to allow them to go back to superstition

        I looked it up.

        Horrifying. Dr. Barron, your report describes how rational these people are. Millennia ago, they abandoned their belief in the supernatural. Now you are asking me to sabotage that achievement, to send them back into the dark ages of superstition and ignorance and fear? NO!

        Man was such an atheist I’m mildly surprised he isn’t more of a terminally online conservative. He’s too pro-choice, though, so I think we’re safe.
