i can agree with that.. only problem, is that what the normals wanted was stuff that went against the telepath's beliefs to give... (getting into people's heads w/o their permission...).. i can see where they wouldnt want to help at times, causae of that...
though, i DO think that they coulda helped some!!

I guess they were really Lazy about it huh?

i dont think they were all on the same agenda... some wanted to use violence, only a few wanted peace... some, like Lyta, were willing to help...

guess they were just like regular people, just with brain scanning abilities..

People is people. That was the main point Joe was trying to make. No matter how wise or foolish. How nobel or base. Race, creed, culture or religeon - special talents or not.

And it's that same point that provides such overwhelming joy and heart crushing agony as the story evolves.

maybe that would be a good thing..if people realized that they were "just people".. then tbey woulda missed that whole telepath war thing

So far as I can tell, in all my years of on and off again study, every major religeon [and all the minors I've run across' have their own version of 'Do unto others as you would have others do unto you.'

One simple line that converys so much and seems to be the one basic tenent in life that we, as humanity, just can't seem to wrap our heads around.

That's sad.

Very sad, and very true..

I think Garibaldo said it best, when he said that people "want war"... that history is divided into times of war, not times of peace"
with one war done (Shadow, war to reclaim Earth, "Drakh"), then what's next?... telepaths..

B5 just looks deep down into the heart of humanity and exposes it all for us to see,but in a subtle way.making us look at others and the consequences that may occur from our frailties.
