  Battlestar Galactica should surly be Mormonism

    I don’t know anything about Battlestar Galactica, except that it’s a series I was never interested in as it just looks like a never ending war similar to Star Wars, which I was also mildly interested in for the same reason.

    But after having a quick look at the wikipedia article - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battlestar_Galactica

    You are probably right, it should be Mormonism … I never knew that series was partially influenced by an actual real world religion.

      The original series in the 1970s leaned more into Mormon cosmology. The more recent version didn’t do that as much, so it’s harder to tell.

        The remake being attached to Trek with the creator being annoyed at VOY and leaving to make his own show still kinda fits the Mormon thing with the above chart, though.
