They kind of gloss over it in this episode, but this is the first mention of Starfleet's General Order 1, the Prime Directive. You'll see it come up throughout the series. I'll spare you the details, but it basically tells Starfleet officers not to interfere in any way with the development of a planet's society. You ask why Reger and Marplon are so afraid of Landru. Wouldn't you be afraid of something that could kill you at any time with sound of it found out your location and that you were against it? Landru probably had hologram projectors set up throughout the building so that he could "show himself." Landru the machine was indeed 6000 years old. Let's just say it was well built and that's why there was no rust or wear on it. I'm not sure if you noticed the joke near the end. Kirk tells Spock that he'd make an excellent computer. Spock simply thanks him for the perceived compliment.

Anyone else see this episode and instantly think Asimov? (or first time after discovering the robot behind it) I think I'm in Love with Scotty in Spanish, no bother At All. Shoot if your benefactor approves I'd be down with a whole episode in Spanish. In fact a friend of mine wanted to hear a Spanish dub of an Angel episode just to hear the sound of his name with the accent. I don't know if there is one though. Preface, don't panic if I disagree, I won't throw insults. We all have reasons for our world view and I have an unusual background turns out, I've met a few like me as it's unfortunately rare and they went through as much hell to get there. Anywho I find the culture of anti religion for kids interesting. Whatever you raise your kid with is your beliefs, religion or no, it can easily be argued as dogma because you are their influence, teaching your kid religion bad, is still a dogmatic belief based on your experience and shapes them pre experience. But parents by nature should be free to teach what they want because the child is theirs. Otherwise it tyranny, as the only other way is force. And then everyone gets the same dogma which is far worse. Though I do recommend teaching critical thinking at the right stages. 8-12 is especially useful for this. That's the deconstruction/reconstruction/learning to discern stage, at least naturally. I don't know, maybe it's because my religion believes real peace is an act of will and that force is essentially evil that I have this perspective. I don't know about marrying to God? Sounds... well, I see no point judging, if we don't have freedom to believe in God, akashic field or the Easter Bunny, the freedom to speak, make a living unobstructed by government and defend ourselves, well, time to rise up in my opinion, even of it's smart to be sneaky about it like these guys. My faith is, well we believe conversion is more than what you're taught, that's belief, it's not bad and can certainly adds basic information but it's rare in children to be converted, even that is a principal at a time, starting with going from belief to faith to knowledge, baptism is more a spiritual boost and sacrament a way to think on if you've been kind that week at that stage, but all our beliefs are centered around the spiritual. The ability to recognize the spirit and I would argue through a scientific method, confirm it. That confirming is converting to said principal starting with the religion itself, if you never questioned, no way you converted.   In terms of freedom it can be used, like many systems, to force, Hitler used a mix of Christianity (which my research suggests he didn't really believe, often true when force is involved) and Evolution. But barring corrupt theocracy like Iran, Communism and socialism etc have generally sought to wipe religion out because individuals of faith, religion or no (pastor who tried to free Mexico who I prefer to the guy who succeeded/Washington a major founder of my country's revolution are good examples of each), has led to freedom more often historically. Done right, I can not emphasize that enough as it is far too easy to do wrong, it gives you a sense of personal rights as well as the rights of others, and being a good citizen. You can have these without but it is statistically more common under some religious belief of some kind, no matter how faint Mr Jefferson (sorry he was an interesting character on the subject and definitely qualifies as the most skeptical believer, kind of love him for his methods of proof which are quite solid and occasional stubbornness which made made me unhappy with him as president and at times personnelly, but they say power corrupts, he did not always act like what he wrote I'll just say).

All I'm saying is ok, if parents follow certain religion ok teach your kids about it but dont make it seem like every ther religion is the devil and dont force them to do the rituals that bound them forever to that religion at a young age (like communion and confirmation) becuse yes, they force us. Its creepy. I was less than 9 I believe. I believe in letting kids make up their own mind. Yes, teach them right from wrong but dont try to turn them into a mini me... I dont think a parent "owns you" thats the excuse my mom always gave me when she wouldnt let me do something or go out or whatever and I asked her why "because I own you and I'm your mother". To have kids and bring them into this world to only make them do things you approve or want or otherwise I'm grounding you cause I own you... I dont know, I'm not fully convinced by that xD
