re: #195 CongoJack

As a Trek nerd (grew up on TNG, DS9, Voyager) I always thought that Q and the Continuum were basically the end result of humanity that over the millennia had finally evolved to be eternal, all powerful beings (thus is why Q had such an interest in humanity to begin with and testing them).

Though I may have thought this because dog knows I’d love to have the powers of Q.

Even in TOS, the Enterprise crew came across several entities/beings that behaved much as Q did in TNG.
