I'm still trying to come up with the right word. Harrowing? Shameful? It made me very sad.

it was really good. looking forward to next episode.

the storyline is about the search for answers.

I don't know where it's going, and I don't much like giving credence to some mystical charlatan, but I do like the concept.

Ever since we've achieved sentience we've wondered if there's something else out there, or beyond life. Why not throw a few billion out there to find out for sure?

But there's absolutely no proof of it at this point.

Just like Ghost and aliens, etc.

and not assume anything.

No proof, but a little more evidence than there is of unicorns, so keep looking until we know.

and reincarnation and it scares me. the thought of coming back -- going through life again and again. i'd rather it just ended with death, but i've had too many experiences that tell me different.
