BSG Meta: Six vs Eight vs Identity
Well, I'm still in South Korea. Still plugging away. Very grateful it's the weekend and not really in the mood to bore everyone with talk of such things, so instead, I have written BSG meta for the first time in ages. Hurrah!

Not incoherent, I agree with you! Middle ground, sometimes this show lacks middle ground. There is something between Cain and Pacifism. Maybe Lee will find it. I don't know. I hope they find it.
Natalie chose death for her entire race. You can't make that kind of a decision and not go first.
Wow. You mean since she worked to destroy the Hub? She also choice trust too, trust that the humans wouldn't take advantage of the Cylons' newly mortal status. A martyr for her cause, she knew the possibility of death.
Oh, this reminds me of the moment in "Handlebars" where it says, "I can lead a nation with a microphone." Natalie in front of the quorum was a moment better in the vid, than when it happened on the show. The whole video made the Revelations episode (and other later eps in season 4.0) much better for me. Natalie leading nations. That's her. It makes me wonder, what sacrifices will the humans have to make? Laura Roslin is dying, dying for what? What she will choose for her race?
Mortality does give life meaning. But trust? I want to believe that the two sides can build that. I want to but deep down I don't. If the show is going that route, it's going to have to be extra-convincing and written VERY WELL for me to buy it. Which would be awesome. We'll see. :-)
