Gene Roddenberry was adamant about not including a lot of things in Star Trek, but the franchise found a way to get around one of those with science.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Star Trek franchise has historically used science as a way to mask a topic Gene Roddenberry disliked. Roddenberry was the creative genius behind Star Trek: The Original Series, which kicked off the franchise in 1966 and has had an immense cultural impact to this day.
Thanks to Roddenberry, Star Trek was based on a utopian vision of the future, one focused on harmony, exploration, and scientific discovery and cooperation. This ideal has served the franchise well over the years, but there have also been downsides to sticking so closely to Gene Roddenberry's original message.
Roddenberry's Dislike Of Religion Started Star Trek Masking It With Science In order to get around Roddenberry's obvious dislike of religion, the Star Trek franchise has always made sure that any overtly religious stories they tell have a scientific explanation. Shows like TOS and TNG either steered clear of religion as a topic altogether or were fairly dismissive when it did come up.
Why Religion Is Controversial The Star Trek Franchise Despite Star Trek being a utopian future, the franchise has always had a complicated track record with religion due to Gene Roddenberry's influence. Roddenberry himself was a staunch atheist, so it was only natural that his ideal vision of the future was one where religion held no sway.
However, religion as a topic remained controversial for those who felt that Roddenberry's original vision should be stuck to exclusively. In fact, there is still debate today about whether Roddenberry would have approved of shows like DS9 for featuring religious themes so heavily. While it's impossible to know the answer, the Star Trek franchise has at least tried to stick to its roots, and Roddenberry's influence, by keeping religious stories rooted in science fiction concepts.
