Scooby Gang Lives

It was bound to happen, a television inevitability in a show like this.  The episode was heavy on the drama which is needed to drive the story forward plus it gives us the seeds of our command structure (think Scooby gang). What did we learn? First of all Sarah signs away her parental rights to John. This is a recurring theme with these two. In last night episode he seemed to take it like you would expect the normal teenager to take this kind of news.  Her focus has always been John's safety and well being. While she later states she was escaping to find him, she knows the best thing for him at the time was to simply separate herself from the future leader of the world. We now have our guy on the inside, an FBI agent, Ellis, who now believes that there are killer robots from the future. I wonder if he knows Moulder? John also gets to bond with his uncle. This will undoubtedly lead to more lessons on being a man and of course tactical information on Sky Net and the machines. This could be good for John. After a lifetime of hopping from town to town learning what he can from his crazy mom and her mercenary boyfriends. Cameron is actually a good dancer. Machines are created to perform tasks flawlessly so it should come as no surprise that her technique would be just that, flawless. "...dance is the language of the soul..." this concept seems to fall under the idea of artificial intelligence. The basic idea of artificial intelligence is that if you think it is intelligent then it is. So could we not place the same attribution to the soul? If you think a dancing machine has soul then my guess would be that it does.

I noticed that you used the term flawless to describe the machines. So if SkyNet was created my man, and man is concidered flawed. This would make SkyNet flawed, therefore making the machines flawed. One could take this even a step further. The Spiritual Level. If artificail intelligence (SkyNet and Terminators) in made in man's likeness, and man was made in God likeness, would you say that God is flawed. But then you have to throw in the APPLE THEORY. Man was made in God likeness, but when man ate the apple (SkyNet), man became flawed.
