: I'm inclined to disagree. How well it's "run" is probably just a euphemism, not a direct indication that he believes that it is ''run'' as such. It could also be making point ''on the assumption'' that it's "run", which would be the case if Q was in charge, i.e. merely refuting Q's claim within Q's assumptions, but without necessarily accepting those assumptions. In other words, I don't think you can draw that much out of that comment. Incidentally, I changed to wording of that part to reflect this just ''before'' reading this talk page! [[User:Philip J.

Learn together changed:
:Roddenberry rarely had the shows overtly reject religion, seeming instead to simply ignore it.
to:
:Roddenberry rarely had the shows overtly reject religion, but would make reference to it as a part of culture.
followed by some examples of references to religion.
Now, I not criticising the edit, but I do wonder... Do we know whether this was Roddenberry's doing, or perhaps the initiative of the writer(s)? What I'm ''suggesting'' (and a suggestion is all that it is) is that one or more writers introduced these religious references, and because they were not overtly promoting Christianity, Roddenberry didn't object to them. If my suggestion is correct, then perhaps the article should reflect that somehow.
Yeah, I suppose I could do some research and see if Roddenberry wrote any of those episodes, or see if they all had the same writer, but I thought that someone else might have some idea on this.
