Another Christian here.
Roman Catholic.
Baptized and raised as one.
I like the talk of faith and belief in JWs work. Quite subliminal sometimes, that one cannot stop the signal.
When Book talks, I tend to listen quite hard. Maybe it's Ron Glass' voice.

Does it count if I used to be a Christian? If not, Email me at darthjedi384@excite.com to delete this post.
I've walked the world for a while and found another faith that fits me better than Christianity ever did. I've enjoyed Joss's work for BOTH the storytelling AND the "Flubotonam."

Christian Browncoat here and I thank God for stories like Firely, characters like Mal and the gang and creative minds like Joss.

I love this 'verse and all that's possible within it... I too felt that Joss had plans for Mal's 'faith issues' in the future and having Shepherd Book on board created higher stakes for everyone. I loved that Book was accepting and didn't preach, except gently when the time was right... I love the family values and the consequences for actions that occour not only in Firefly, but also in Buffy and Angel... I remember when Willow brought Buffy back to life using dark magic I said to my bestest friend "there's got to be repercussions from that" ... and there were!!
I believe that as a Christian my biggest challenge is not to judge others... that is not for me to do... So I get along with most people, unless I actually see them hurting others...
Well said Magdalena. I was raised Christian, won't go into current Pov, but I thought Joss's take in Firefly was very interesting. Not the usual occult stuff (which was fun to explore too)but more "a man looses faith" idea. I liked that the ideals still existed, regardless of specific circumstances.
Sorry for jumping off-topic (along w/ all the others) into the thread.
'Cause how you get there is the worthier part.

I'm a Catholic Christian and a Browncoat. Although, I handle my religion differently then most Catholics, and I tend to be more liberal. Anyway, I agree with what people were saying about the morality and ethics of Joss's shows.

Just thought I'd bump this & see what happens.
