Exactly.

This is a very geek thing to say....but i am gonna say it anyways.

Star Trek and Star Wars, (i guess by coincidence) is in fact the same conflict we've seen for centuries....which is Science vs. Religion.

And its easy to sum up....Star Trek is to Science as Star Wars is to Religion. Both of them complete far fetched fantasies which support science/religion is the most powerful knowledge in the universe.

And for those who know their history, whoever read 'Angels and Demons,' or just watch cable television.....knows that Science and Religion have never ever got along.

This is the reason why a Star Trek follower will always be a 'Trekkie,' and a Star Wars follower will always be a 'Jedi Nerd.'

Its a present-day version for virgins about the whole Science vs. Religion discussion.
