final cylon?

Photobucket

According to all the gossip, the final cylon is revealed in the above photo. As you can see, this is a replica of Da Vinci's "The Last Supper." So, in the original painting, there are 12 disciples and Christ. In this photo, there are only 11 "disciples."



Dee. She's missing. Right next to Lee there is an empty place where she should be, and also in the original painting, this is the spot where Judas was seated.

I can't wait for Friday!!!



When we went to the sci-fi museum we saw an original cylon costume. Coolness.

back when BSG started- about mid 1rst season- someone told me that BSG was actually an allusion to Mormonism. i kinda got sidetracked and missed tons of episodes, so i can't say if it is or not. i was wondering if you had heard that or had another idea of what BSG might represent.

Yeah, I've heard that too. If I'm not mistaken, the original BSG series was written/started up by a Mormon. There are a few allusions to the Mormon faith, such as the "Quorum of Elders". Also, Kolob is the name Mormons give to the world which God dwells on (in other words, heaven) and as you may recall, Kobol was the world of the gods in BSG. I never watched the original BSG, so I can't really say if there are more similarities. I think if you look up the wikipedia article for the original series, it talks about the Mormonism thing a little more.
