And when his family visits, should he tell them, "Whatever you do, don't mention the war. I mentioned it once, but I think I got away with it."?

No...it translates closer to "Angel of Destruction", though "Angel of the Bottomless Pit" was later tacked on as well.
It's all a cultural assimilation of the Greek's God of Destruction (Just as "Cherubs" were originally Assytian tomb-gurading monsters and not cue lil' babies with wings).
Besides, being named after a religous or mythological creature is a far cry from sharing the honorific if some human scumbag.

There is a fair chance that Jason has spelt his surname wrong.

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Well, since he refused to spell it right two years ago...

So we're repeating a conversation we had two years ago?
People should be complaining that we're written by Braga, or something.

Jason's spelling alone could keep a whole series going for decades.

But does it justify six pages on this forum?
Umm. Forget that I asked. And I guess any discussion is better than no discussion at all... I just fear that the real question today isn't whether to close down the ENT forum or not - it's whether to maintain any Trek forum at all. After all, Jason's new series notwithstanding, we already know everything about everything, right?

I've always wondered if God could create a burrito so spicy that He Himself could not eat it without the aid of Maalox.
There's still some stuff to explore in the Star Trek universe. For example, how all the future tech Janeway stole from herself works and whether or not it'd be deployed anytime soon. Or whether Odo can really bring calm and and pro-solid sentiment to the Great Link. Or whether Worf is going to be found dead in a sleazy charge-by-the-hour motel on Ferenginar with a couple Andorian prostitutes after a drug binge caused by the realization that every women he's ever loved has abandoned him or died.
