It's one of this spiritual mystery episodes I don't like. However, this episode about Bajoran religion and society isn't half as bad as I remembered it. It's quite a descent - not a great - story about religion and religious fanatics and their negative influence on politics and societies. In the grand scheme of things, this episode is maybe even part of the overarching story arch although we had similar stories before. We already knew that religion interferes with Bajoran politics but the notion of a caste system on Bajor is interesting. The episode isn't very exciting though. The talk about religion isn't very philosophical or intellectual either. Like in similar episodes before I don't like that we don't experience how Bajorans on the planet react to the events. There's only reports from Bajor but virtually the whole episode is limited to the station and the reactions of the Bajorans aboard DS9.
