“.... like Gene Roddenberry did when he created Star Trek, Collins wanted there to be zero religion in her world.”

Which explains the root coldness and shallowness of that series, and the need for Shatner’s legendary overacting.

There was the one episode strongly referencing Christ, the Son, in which Uhuru at the end says something like “Imagine what it would be like to be there, to see that actually happening again”.

Was that the episode where the situation was like Earth but if the Roman Empire hadn't fallen? That episode bugged me because the plot point relied on confusion between sun and son, which would only take place in some Germanic languages but not in Latin.

I remember that episode from Star Trek and I specifically recall my delight that there was a reference to Jesus Christ, something about 'they said they worshipped the Son and here we thought they meant the Sun' (a play on words).
