\nWell…almost. In just four short days, one of the most spiritual shows in the history of television, and surely the one with the deepest exploration of the complexities of religion, finally returns to the Sci-Fi Channel for its fourth and final season.

\nThere’s a lot to talk about, so in the meantime, join the Beliefnet group Battlestar Galactica: Religion, Ethics, and Identity<\/a> and share your thoughts for the upcoming grand finale!

\nPlus:<\/strong> Are you freaking out because of the absence of Lost<\/a>? Fear not! Only five more weeks til new episodes start. In the meantime, share your frustration and talk about what’s happened so far with other Lost fans with this group: “Lost” in Faith<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
