Lost in BSG 75


I'm hooked, I admit it!

 Judy and I picked up a copy of the first Season of Battlestar Galactica and it has been our nighttime fare ever since. 

This show has so many parallels to life today. A civilization adrift in a maze of time and space. There is a real enemy that persues them relentlessly. (Guess who?) There are also enemies who look like friends and friends who may be Cylons (Mutant, evolved AI robots in disguise)

 Who needs regular TV when you can track these homeless raiders through space as they look for their elusive home called Earth. Some don't even believe it exists! Does it? We don't know yet, at least WE don't we are on season three and diggin it.

Call it pure Sci-fi excape-ism  and call it well done. It is a world so real that I lay awake at night wondering how the human race is going to make it.   (I privately wonder that in real life too!)

So we remain lost in BSG 75!  The real world...well thank God for His Son Jesus that will light the way faithfully every day. Look out Cylons!
