225: '''Bread and Circuses'''
(First watched 2009-04-03)  Hey, YET ANOTHER very-near-Earth.  At least this one had an interesting twist, though: Rome survives to the technological equivalent of our 20th century.  Given the Roman setting, I thought the twist on the Sun/Son worshippers was a bit obvious.  I wonder what sort of theological arguments that would cause in the Trek universe?  One side could say it proves there's a God causing planets to develop in a similar way, and sending Christ to each.  Another side could say that random chance causing similar things to occur in various places just goes to show that religious beliefs are a natural development.
Nice McCoy/Spock scene when they're in a cell alone together, and more serious than banter for a change.
