Star Trek; God Revealed?

[RobertScorpio]

And if they are, then those glasses are....GOD!!!

Well, even if (for the sake of the thread) we assume that they are the same glasses, why would you elevate an inanimate object stuck in a groundhog day like existence to the status of GOD? While the glasses may not have a beginning or ending, they are also trapped in a finite range of time and do not exist outside of that range (from 1986 to 2285).

One would hope for something... more (?) before being christened GOD.

At best I'd say this falls into the interesting category rather than the deity category.

I know..I thought it was a funny connection..

So what happens to the glasses after Kirk sells them?

They go on a magical journey around the world (where, at some point, somebody decides to replace the lenses) until they end up in an antique shop just around the corner from McCoy's house. He sees them and goes, "Hey, Jim needs these."

 

[Admiral Buzzkill]

Is it possible that Kirk's eye glasses, the ones McCoy gave to him, are the God of all? Or, to be more trekonian, perhaps we should call his glasses Val; and show his glasses our enduring love.o

No, and this is ridiculous.

See? There's your time loop.

 

[RoJoHen]

Exactly.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

^ And we're back to my earlier question: Once the glasses go through the time loop enough times, they will become brittle and fall apart. The loop will be unable to sustain itself indefinitely.

^And at that point, the whole universe will implode. But we're obviously not there yet.
