Worf probably told the clerics about it when he arrived at the monestary

If you think that, along the way, you're not going to fail... you're blind.

There's no one I've ever met, no matter how successful they are, who hasn't said they had their failures along the way.

I really dig Rightful Heir, but it's kinda forgotten when people talk about that season. The guy playing Kahless is one of my favorite Klingon guest stars, right up there with Gowron and Martok (who you won't see unless you watch DS9, which you should). There was a Kahless novel written in the late 90's/early 00's and that actor came back to narrate the audiobook. I listened to that tape until it warped itself into oblivion.

He was also the narrator of the 90's Outer Limits.

And for all that people ballyhoo about Worf's klingabooism, he has a very practical and even political outlook on the whole situation here without succumbing to cynicism or losing his faith. It's an evolutionary turn Worf, a crucible that tests and strengthens his Klingon character.

You've seen how it works on their ships, if Worf killed Jesus, Worf becomes Jesus.

For an absolutely pointless breather episode whose only narrative function is to be that breather, this one's a lot of fun. The comic chemistry of the DS9 cast is on full display here and why, despite my frequent complaints about certain aspects of many characters, I think they're rock solid as a group and easily my favorite overall cast of any Star Trek series.

It's good, silly fun that knows it's silly, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Only Trek-adjacent and I realize it's not in their control, but good lord I wish The Greatest Generation didn't have to air plugs for other Maximum Fun shows. Each one of them seems to be competing for Qurikiest Podcast Ever, and I never get the skip-a-bunch feature on my player to skip them and not a chunk of the Drunk Shimoda / Next Time bits in the process.

I just started listening to this and i'm playing catch up in season 2 right now, but good lord the plugs for that celebrity gossip podcast are grating.

I dunno. Starfleet seems okay with Sisko being both Bajoran Jesus and the station commander. :v:
