The OP is a week old.
This article is a month old:

"No one" though. Sure. -

I liked this quite a lot until the religious bullshit at the end. I don't object to the direction they went in principle, just hated the execution.
But hey, better to swing for the fences and fail than not try anything challenging at all. -

Maybe I forgot since it has been so long, but can you name a single metaphysical or supernatural occurrence in the first season?
EDIT: A /. clued me in after I asked the question a couple times, so yeah, the stuff was there. It still wasn't integrated well. -

Religion was in the show from the get-go - and it was a major component too.
This is what is being discussed. You trying to change it has zero impact on the religious themes present throughout the entire series, fag.

As I wrote in my first post, my objection wasn't that there was any religion at all, just the execution of those themes. More specifically, I think the metaphysical/supernatural stuff didn't work and was garbage, since it wasn't supported "from the get-go" in any way, shape, or form.
That's just bad writing, and my point still stands.
You aren't a very good reader or analyzer in arguments–best leave that to the adults. -

Again, and I don't understand how this simple point keeps getting ignored, but my objection to the religious aspects of the show are about the EXECUTION, not that there were religious aspects to begin with.
There was no need to introduce actual bullshit metaphysical and supernatural elements that had never been built up prior to the conclusion.
