The Fascist Ideology of Star Trek: Militarism, Collectivism, & Atheism

Now, I'm not a big fan of Star Trek, as a kid it didn't hold my attention nearly as much as the other sci fi fare afforded to me at the time.
- Space 1999
- Battlestar Galactica
- and of COURSE Star Wars
However, as I grew older and began to read Asimov, Clarke, Bradbury, etc. I realized that a lot more was happening. Metaphor and allegory entered into the picture and I revisited many old favorites with a new perspective.
Over time, as my political compass changed, I began to see things in a newer and sometimes more paranoid light
That being said, I'm going to start watching re-runs of Star Trek to see just how much of this authors perspective I agree with.
Somewhat related, I was initially outraged that Starbuck got a sex change in the new Battlestar Galactica, now I see that female or male, these is a new series and I definitely can deal with it.
Maybe my daughter will grow up to see re-runs of the 'new' BSG and emulate her?
I hope not. Cigar smoke isn't healthy.
