HT.063 And The Children Shall Lead (TOS)
Listen now
Description
When a bunch of Children of the Corn on a scientific outpost cause their parents to Jim Jones themselves, they call to the guardians of the watchtowers of the East and release "he who walks behind the rows" back into the galaxy.   Star Trek continues to be relevant as ever as we question whether innocent followers who don't know any better are just as liable as the evil people pulling the strings? People who aren't taught critical thinking and scientific skepticism are very susceptible to "fake news" and "stolen elections" and "vaccine disinformation"?
