what I don't like in this episode is that Q making jokes about janeway for being a female captain, in the star trek universum it is the same as Quark telling jokes about a niger called Cisco.
hell I'd wana kill my self if i was immortal not immediately but soon id get bored n tired oh maybe i'll do this to feel this emotion but after experiencing every emotion time and time again it becomes bland and boring
I hate Quinn, he was a stupid idiot with a deathwish after the fact, he could be the worst Q of all.
Another thing if the Qs were omnipotent, they could be dead and alive at the same time, then for the same the fact Quinn wish to die, show he was not death for the same they are not omnipotent.
Then all the bullshit Quinn could say, have no sense.
Ah, I love some of you guys. Doing totally bad philosophy on YouTube's 500 characters. Using up that space to say nothing, but in a fancy way :). And yet do it while watching Star Trek's Q perform. Oh, I get it: you love the show just out of aesthetic reasons. Q can't possibly exist. He's just sci-fi because Rick Berman told us so.
Also, gotta love TheLydianRocks: "God raped all the children... but he doesn't exist. Because WE made him." :P
Lydian, for further reference: ST-VOY: "The Thaw".
umm.. enough with the preaching already.. lets see.. point to point. No, Life has no value in itself. it is merely a series of chemical processes, and nothing more. I will never want children of my own and if i did id certainly not wish them to become religious, though that choice would be open for them should they so choose..
but this is not a discussion on a cliq of the ever sexy Q damnit!. enjoy and love Q for the omnipotent bastard he is :).
i tend to agree with both sides in this issue.. Q have a point that suicide could be viewed as a cause by mental instability.. on the other hand.. The vulcans point was also easy to agree too. Life has no value in and of itself. if the life does not wish to live, what right have the others to interfere. Though the vulcan was not saying suicide is good or bad here.. he was merely stating that Suicide is not a valid reason to be called mentally unstable. and he proved this fine.
He had no proof.And you said, "Lilfe has no value in and of itself"
What in the world does that mean?? Do you Value yourself?? well?? Hello.
Do you value your Childrens life? dont you want the best for them, caring Loving, nurturing, Protecting. Wanting to help them with all there dreams. To see that they get married to a nice Person (preferrably a Servant of Christ Jesus). So I Guess we DO value life!!
Hello??
Police military "Protect" dont they? I guess we do value life.

Dont listen to those who say life should be discarded because of a Reason that is convenient or because we think it is best because of illness, or disease. Abortion is evil as well , killing babies cannot be "legalized" just because some say it can be.
there was no logic on part of the 'Vulcan" because he did not show that Life has Value and should be Protected. And so what if some peeps in some cultures condone Suicide, so what? God says we are made in his image and have great worth, so much worth that he sent his only begotten Son that whosoever believes in him will have Eternal life, Amen.
@ighforever oh fuck off you religious ignoramus. stop preaching your bullshit here, go watch some christopher hitchens and richard dawkins and be educated about your little illness
we all have imaginary friends, i just grew out of mine... "jimmy carr"
@ighforever god raped all the children that priests molested, he enjoyed it, otherwise why let it happen? im sick of being nice about religious zealot pricks like you.
you know NOTHING about what happens after life and you are either insane or a fool to think you do know. god is man made and the fact there are over 100 000 gods proves it a moron would look at the bible as a historical document, its clearly out first explanation of why everything is and our first attempt at philosophy.
Q2 reminds me of the gay community asking for acceptance in a society that doesn't seem to be able to or wish to accept them. Not that I have a problem with homosexuality. We are what we are, and we're doing the best we can.
the q were human or like human as quinn refers constantly to the New Era in that episode.If they existed without evolution then all good things was a waste of an episode and made no sense
q (john de lancie) probalby was born within the continuum as shown by his immature puckish behaviour compared to the rest of the continuum ie in Q - Less he refers to the rest of the continuum as his superiors and in "all good things" the anomoly was a directive from the continuum.so really he could have been oblivious or ignorant of the continuum's origins
No, because in the TNG episode where Q becomes mortal ("Q Who?" I think the episode was), when the other Q shows up, he displays disgust for "his" human form.
Why would a society, which is an all knowing continuum, fear one rouge, are they not all knowing? And since Quinn is part of an all knowing continuum why would he bother to kill him self if he all ready knows what it's like or what effect it would have on the continuum? I think this idea of Quinn was made for the sake of good ratings or what ever to a crappy show (voyager is crappy, not star trek overall).
The Q continuum is omnipotent, omnipresent (as seen here) and omniscient, kinda like the God Continuuml!
So, an omnipotent being asking for the right to kill himself is kinda silly, why not just make himself immortal if he is all powerful and kills himself on the spot? Why ask for permission?
On the other hand in its silliness the episode is enjoyable, John De Lancie is as brilliant as always and the episode offers some interesting ideas!
He tried to do it himself, but couldn't. How can you use your power to take a way your power, and thus, remove the power to take away your power. He has been unable to do it, and he's asking asylum from the Q continuum, and they (through De Lancie Q) have agreed that if asylum is given, they will release his powers and make him mortal. A bit of a paradox, no?
It's a bit of a paradox, yes! Though it is required to use your powers first to leg go of your powers, not remove the power to take away your power. The episode it's a bit like "God's desire to experiment human condition so... enter Jesus". This case is the same, kinda cool! But still, for an omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent being...to experiment death is silly, since...his omnipotent, omnscient, omnipresent status would allow him to experiment death altough immortality was his status!
Q rocks- I wish they'd get him in a movie, but since it looks like TNG may be finished, at least for now, he'll never get the chance, since ha can't be in the prequels with Kirk; Picard discovered him.
@smcneal057 close but no cigar. It has been theorized that Trelane is an infant member of the Q Continum, but not Q himself. Peter David did write a novel called "Q-Squared" which had both Q and Trelane.
@obiwanobiwan13 BUT since the new movie opens up a new timeline, you COULD possibly have him come in. That's why I like the new movie so much. It keeps the original timeline intact plus allows for new possibilities with Kirk's crew.
I can see Q's point of wanting to die. Not being able to really see anything new and then being locked up. The Q Cont' kinda brought it on themselves when they locked him up that he would make a certain stand piont on wanting to die. I would be like to be locked up like a imprisioned animal.
have to agre with oreolvrs as stated in the episode "Q2" Q reveals that for every ten minutes that passes in our dimension several years pass in the Q continuum.If you know everything that happemns everywhere at every minute you are going to get bored easily.Theres a huge difference between omniscence and immortality.
well in that episode Quin explains that they evolced to that state look up continumm by skarteros.The q evolved to their present form and were formally human
the problem is the q's omniscent all knowing of the universe.If they were simply immortal (or like ascension in stargate) there would be an eternity to ''map the unkown possibilities of existence'' and maybe with some of their powers they wouldnt get bored so easily
yeah, being a Q would be sweet for a while, but then ud be in the same position as the Q who wanted to kill himself. ud eventually get bored, even with something as big as the universe. immortality is a double edged sword, everyone wants it, but who among us could actually withstand it?
dude, did you not see this episode? you could get bored. If you were locked in the biggest library in the world and given immortality, eventually you would have read all the books, then youd go insane with boredom and want to die. the universe is just a bigger version of that, eventually you would run out of things to do, thats why Q would always go off and fool around with Picard and starfleet, he was bored. it doesnt matter how creative or cultured you are, it only goes so much
You're still not getting the point I'm trying to hammer home. The universe is a boundless, but not infinite domain, therefore, there are only so many concievable circumstances that can occur. It doesn't matter if you are the most creative person times a million, and could create things, eventually you would run out. Your the type of person who reads Issac Azimov's short story "The Last Question" and didn't get the point. Search for the story online, read it, then get back to me.
Duplicating himself and calling his copy to the stand is one of the most self centered things Q has ever done. This is definatly one of his best moments.
Q is pretty cool...just getting to teleport anywhere anytime and being able to take the place of others in their life and out....he is good in all his episodes with em in it to me accept for the first 2 hour first episode event of the TNG series....he was kind of boring to be in that one ~_~ lol
