    To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Faith of the Heart. The message is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the refrences will go over a typical viewer’s head. There’s also Enterprises positive outlook, which is deftly woven into the songs characterisation- the shows philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these lyrics, to realise that they’re not just faith in a heart - they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Faith of the Heart truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the truth in Phlox’ existential catchphrase “This is a nipple,” which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev’s Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Rod Stewarts genius lyrics and melody unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools… how I pity them. 😂

      What the Spock did you just say about me, you little petaQ? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Academy, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Dominion, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in Koala warfare and I’m the top Red Shirt in the entire Federation armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my Logical words. You think you can get away with saying that Andorian fecal matter to me over Subspace? Think again, Tuvix. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the Alpha Quadrant and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, like your ancestors far from bones of your people. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re already dead, you little violation of the prime directive. Like a Changeling, I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my borg enhancements. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed Kirk-Fu, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United Federation Of Planets Military Assault Command Operations and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable face off the face of Bajor, you little piece of cheese infested bio neural gel pack. If only you could have known what unlogical retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you Q-damn idiot. I will fire fury all over you like Sisko commits war crimes and you will drown in it. You’re dead like Jadzia.
