Ok, so I dont post much here, but I feel compelled to write.
Enterprise is dead. I mean I am glad that Star Trek still has it's fans, like me, but the series sucks! I have been privileged to watch all the different incarnations under the ST name, Enterprise was the worst.
The why is easy... Rick Berman the self proclaimed heir to Roddenberry has only had $$ in his eyes over Star Trek and he pushed to far.
Enterprise the series was supposed to take us back to the beginning. Instead, just like the last 3 incarnations of the Star Trek series Berman allowed the show to use a formula that became boring and predictable. We're in space traveling along..OH NO another new species and they are hostile.. OH NO they are chasing us around the Alpha Quadrant.. OH NO they have a 50/50 infulence on the planets in this system.. OH NO how do we patch these rods together on this episode to stop them? It started with DS9 and ends here with Enterprise. It is a sad state, but Berman and his Bermanites can't sell a lame show this time.
Yes, keep Star Trek alive, Yes move it to it's natural home on SciFi, Yes people will watch, but this time give the riegns to someone else so the creativity flows and Star Trek will once again produce a genuinely unique take on our future and fans will once again flock to watch.

Ok so want a realistic portrayal of religion in gaming, then start a company that specializes in that. I mean, come on, look around ya, there is Christian Television, and Christian rock, and Christian Hollywood (i.e. The Passion). Your market is about 33% of the world's population.(http://www.adherents.com/)
I personally won't buy into it. Portraying a specific "religion" in a game, console or PC, would be a bore. Now if you want to impress me find a way to add spirituality into a game and I may buy. When I say "Spirituality" I mean a well rounded, all-inclusinve search for the "soul" or "inner-being" and the triumphs and downfalls therein.
Religion and "GOD" do not belong in the mainstream videogame market. Just as they do not belong in our law making process and our schools. If you want a game with your religious values, then program one and sell it to anyone who will buy into it. I personally find this thread rather disturbing and pointless.
