Yes! Because you know, if you liked that the resolution to a lot of plots was "God did it," and think that it was well-foreshadowed to end in this particular way, with this particular manner of divine intervention, then that's fine. But don't tell me it was also ambiguous! "God did it!" is like the least ambiguous thing ever. People seem to be confusing it with, "It was hinted this inexplicable event might have been down to a higher power."

And I fail to see how Kara declaring her love for her doomed husband followed by saying goodbye to Lee, completed with requisite flashback about how they'd never really have worked out anyway, was ambiguous in any way at all.

Even though I just finished talking about how, tonally, I liked that. Um. I think I liked it cus it was understated though. Even if the message of their DOOOMED LURVE wasn't ambiguous, I at least felt that the emotional message we were supposed to take from it left more room for interpretation. It was a little closer to the Baltar breaking down over farming end of the scale than the OMGZYAY LUDDITES! end of the scale.

But, um, this is probably not the place to dissect all the various shippy endings of the show because if we do, KEVIN GRAZIER MIGHT SHOW UP AND MAKE US ALL INTO BOYS.
