The references I mentiion are tangiential, rather than direct, but I perceive as quite real and definite nevertheless. So if not here, where? For example, the reference to Jericho is hardly direct or exact, but is quite similar. It could also reference a persian sack of Athens, except the players aren't right. So please tell me where...thanks!

That the cylon religion is Mormonism can only be true in the sense that it represents a stage in its history, as the Mormons claim spiritual lineage through an especial, 13th, as it happens, tribe of israel. Perhaps you mean to suggest that the cylons represent the 13th tribe of Israel, the Colonies being the first 12?
