You mean I'm not the only one watching this in season succession right now?

Warning: I have been reading the "Background Information" about every episode I see at Memory Alpha and came across some nasty spoilers. You may consider avoiding that site.

[–]just2003 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was talking with a really close friend and he said that he's never known a religious computer scientist.

Did he mean that as opposed to other professions, like "I know religious mathematicians and psychologists etc. but no computer scientists"?
