:::: [http://www.midwinter.com/lurk/guide/048.html] was one of my favorite episodes. The monks are being exactly what they are called to be and even under the worst of circumstances staying true to their vows and beliefs. How many times do we see that in Hollywood? Sheridan is the one who doesn't want to forgive, but for brother Theo he does so even if it is difficult because it is what he is called to do. They also mention Jesus respectfully, and not as a curse word or from hypocrisy. I found it to be very refreshing. Brother Theo appears in 2 other episodes that I remember in smaller roles, and all are respectful. [[User:Learn together|Learn together]] 02:25, 16 December 2007 (EST)

::::: I do recall the monks being presented fairly respectfully, but don't recall them being particularly ''Christian''. I.e., they simply appeared to be "religious people", with their religion undefined. However, looking [http://www.midwinter.com/lurk/synops/048.html here], it does appear that they ''were'' explicitly Christian, which I must have forgotten (presuming I saw that episode).

:::::: Yes, they actually mention Jesus without it being a curse word. They actually tell the story of Jesus for almost a minute, which in Hollywood terms is the equivalent of a blue moon. It's a shame Hollywood started to ostracize his B5 series and its spinoff. He wasn't a Hollywood man and went public with the memo that TNT sent him telling him he needed to put more sex and violence in his ''Crusade'' series -- it wasn't renewed.
