Just a theory on the metaphors here (Spoiler Discussion)


I believe that movie makers, especially really good sci-fi movie makers, use their movies as a template to represent social situations nobody likes to talk about openly.

After hearing the dialog about how the Centauri species travels world to world spreading their way of life, and thus diluting or ending other cultures in the name of their faith, I was left wondering if the writer tried to use this as a metaphor for crusades.

It could be interpreted as the Christian crusades from centuries ago, or possibly the current radical Muslim fighters who are killing people who are not believers.

Does anyone have a thought on this?
