Was DS9 anti-Vulcan

[Voth commando1]

Can a Q be shot with a phaser? No it can't?

Can a Klingon become a pacifist? No not really?

Can a leopard change its spots. Not on its own no.

 

[Tosk]

Can a Klingon become a pacifist? No not really?

Uh, yeah they can.

 

[Nyotarules]

Vulcans are extremely tough and endurable both psychologically and physically and for those reasons I find it exceedingly difficult to believe they wouldn't be able to hold up under the pressure of war.

Vulcans had planet wide peace and global unity for 2000 years, they are less equipped to deal with traumatic wars compared to humanity who only stopped blowing each up for 200 years in the ST universe.

 

[Nyotarules]

Vulcans are not a monolith and they are not interchangeable. The vast majority may well be able to deal with traumas of war without becoming psychotic. This one individual could not. I don't understand this insistence on defining an entire species by such narrow parameters.

Because sadly some folks have this mentality with human beings in the real world.

Can a Q die yes a Q can?
Can a Klingon be peaceful? - Alexander Rozhenko
Can war like Vulcans live a life of peace - Surak proved they can and so did the discovery of the Kishara. A Vulcan life of logic is taught, it is NOT biological.

Alexander is only a quarter Klingon with a half Klingon father and human up bringing,
Q can only be harmed by other Q
Yeah and that reformation from nuclear war to stoicism drastically affected every element of their civilization
There is a biological element to it.

 

[Prax]

A Klingon Pacifist? I think the correct term here is "coward."

 

[kkt]

Alexander is only a quarter Klingon with a half Klingon father and human up bringing,

I thought Alexander was 3/4 Klingon. Worf is all Klingon even though he was raised on Earth.

 

[Tosk]

I thought Alexander was 3/4 Klingon.

You're correct.

Which is?

 

[WebLurker]

Which is?

"Meld" (VOY) does establish that Vulcans have a part of their brains that can suppress emotions, but there's not indication that it evolved because of Surakian teachings. In fact, the big idea of Vulcans is that their stoicism is cultural, not biological.

Where was the 'biological element' when V'Las was in charge and the Vulcans were at war with the Andorians? The only 'biological element' is to make the decision to be peacemakers. Without Surak, Vulcans are semi- Romulans.

Yeah I always figured the neurosuppressor was an anatomical byproduct of the drastic shift in Vulcan society. Something that did not exist before.

Yeah, it's K'Ehleyr who was half human.

I don't think evolution works that fast or in that way.

 

[Bad Thoughts]

Lamarck? Oh, boy!
