Sep 20, 2016 at 15:35 comment added SDH Not sure I would quite agree with Picard's labeling of militant atheist. His talk with Data shows a much more agnostic line of thinking.youtube.com/watch?v=9GLU6wgTvL8
Jan 3, 2015 at 22:24 comment added geewhiz One thought on the Who Watches the Watchers reference: They were dealing with proto-vulcans. Vulcan's had a brutal history prior to embracing logic and religion has often been used in justifying wars. Rather than militant atheism, it's possible that Picard simply didn't want to reintroduce something that could be used as a flashpoint in the future considering how bad he knew the wars could get with "Vulcans" involved.
