This is a series that discusses how human beings should live, the elements of science fiction, and the setting of the future, in order to use all the knowledge accumulated by human beings to explain this proposition, from science to religion to philosophy.
Perhaps, all human knowledge, such as science, art, poetry, etc., only meets the needs of individuals, while knowledge such as philosophy, religion, politics, love, history, and communication are more valuable to the entire human race. Because according to Schopenhauer's theory, living in the present is the happiest, and most art is to make people live happily in the present. However, the truth is the same as the truth that philosophy wants to spread. The public cannot easily accept the truth of living happily in the present, so art, like the truth of philosophy, cannot make them live happily. And the people who are in despair in their lives, the truth of art and philosophy cannot save them either. Therefore, the public is more inclined to religious prophecy, because it brings the public's thinking to tomorrow and gives them a hope, but hope requires guidance. of. Politics, on the other hand, is the tool used by the elite to lead the ignorant masses. In order to better rule the ignorant masses, politics also borrowed the power of religion. However, in the process of political struggle, politics finally believed in religion. This is what Adama did before. However, when religion abandoned him again, he also I lost my faith, chose to live in the moment, and chose to share the bed with the president.
S4E12 gives us hope, because the vice president, who made his fortune from the civil rights struggle, has always believed in the power of politics, and perhaps the mutiny he led will bring Adama back to the path of re-belief in politics.
