In which hope springs Eternals as the 3-Ds discuss their reasons for optimism, in real life and in sci fi. It’s a counter to today’s popular doomsday attitude of “Everything is awful; we’re all going to die.” Even when it’s overtly pessimistic and dystopian, sci fi still maintains an undercurrent of optimism. But Pastor Dave is hopeful humanity will be “Saved by science and Jesus.”

Then a game of sci fi “what if” ensues. For example, what if Hogwarts were real? Britain’s SAS special ops teams would have raided the place and arrested everyone in there. Which really doesn’t sound very optimistic after all.
