Deserved an episode

I've always thought that the prophets didn't destroy the Dominion fleet, but instead moved them to a point in time they would be harmless and 'de-evolved' them just like they did for Zek, and I think that would make a great fan fiction or novel. A fleet of Gem'Hadar with their genetic manipulation reversed alone in a period of time in the far future or past the Founders do not exist.

And let's not forget the forgotten Equinox crew. There could be great redemption stories told about them.

If that we're true then it would seem to follow the prophets are averse to killing/more gentle than is first depicted, if so that would raise my opinion of them substantially.
 
I'm curious where you get the impression of the prophets are keen on killing. Other than the Dominion fleet we haven't really seen them kill anyone. We've seen them consider killing, or possibly risk killing people.

I see their disregard for individual life as just an effect of them seeing the entire timeline at once rather than just thinking in the moment.

I don't think it's a big stretch to combine what they did in Accession with what they did in Prophet Motive.

It's possible they just killed them but I think it'd be more interesting if they just put them somewhere else.

I don't think their keen on killing, I'm saying if they were averse to it I would be more respectful for their designation as "gods."
