The phrase "So say we all (listen • help • info)" is a concluding response to prayer in the Twelve Colonies.

The phrase was used by both polytheists who were followers of the Lords of Kobol and monotheists, such as members of the Soldiers of the One terrorist group.

Notes

The word "amen" also exists and is used in dialogue in two episodes.
- "Resurrection Ship, Part II" (Fisk: "Amen to that.")
- "Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II" (Cavil: "Lords of Kobol, we trust in your benevolence and praise your righteousness. Give the people of this fleet the wisdom to see the goodness and the strength of your servant, Laura Roslin. Amen.").
