[QUOTE]Originally posted by Lee: [QB] Jacob's use of the phrase "lay down your burdens" got me thinking about that partocular episode. Then, the humans, weary of running, found a planet to settle on; but a year later it had all gone pear-shaped and then the Cylons arrived an occupied them. And, second time round, they do the same thing but decide that what'll make it work this time is not to build a city, and have ships parked nearby or in orbit? Hmm. It also occurs to me: we don;'t really know how completely "back to basics" they were planning to go. All we saw were people being loaded onto Raptors for dispersion. We don't know how much stuff was really unloaded, for all Apollo's poetic "nothing but the clothes on their backs" idea, these are civilised people who probably haven't been through extreme survival training. Although the destruction of the fleet implies a desire to stop running, why destroy the Raptors deliberately? We know they were ultimately destroyed or fell apart and weren't replaced because we know that eventually what are now "our ancestors" descended into barbarism. So I don't believe in the choice they made from a character-based point of view, and from hindsight as well. [/QB][/QUOTE]
