What good are gods if they do not destroy evil?!"''

His message is ludicrously unsatisfying -- I exist to clean up the environment, which is probably a doomed task that [[ItsUpToYou I can't carry out without you]]. Here the impotence of the captain becomes a perverse motivation...By enlisting in his cause, we've rendered ourselves as dysfunctional as he is, so that when we die and Gaia passive aggressively asserts that [[ItsAWonderfulFailure we have made her sad]], we're forced to wonder why the dumb bint didn't come up with a system to protect herself that consisted of something a little more sensible than an all-powerful being who requires a bunch of kids to successfully pilot a fighter jet in order to work. And for that matter, why'd she evolve a species that was going to kill her in the first place? Crappy plan like that, it's a wonder she's made it this long."''\\
