[QUOTE]Originally posted by Reverend: [QB] No, the proof is in the Spoo. Anyway, if that's the exception then what about the Mimbari? Not one, but three distinct and socially separate communities with their own traditions, attitudes and prejudices. For that mattter what about humanity? As you point out, B5 did a very good job at shoing that Earth wasn't USA in spaaaaaaace...Now, if there's one race that most other sci-fi shows portray as monolithic and lacking in diversity, it's Humans. I mean, how often did trek REALLY show any diversity beyond superficially casting different ethnicities, here and there. Everyone still spoke with an american accent, nobody displayed much in the way of cultural heritage. The only exceptions being Sisko's African artifacts and Kim having a nagging dominating mother. [QUOTE]The first-season episode that had Sinclair introducing all of the human religious representatives comes to mind as being an alien monoculture episode.[/QUOTE]I think you missed the part where they say it was supposed to be a demonstration of each rece's DOMINANT beliefs. Sinclair's stunt just showed that he's a little more broad minded than Londo, Delenn and G'Kar...big surprise. [/QB][/QUOTE]
