Talking about Star Trek. This was a great educational television series. The creators of Star Trek were humans who were devoted to educating the humanity to many concepts of alien world. It is a textbook of alien aware human culture given to humans in entertaining way.
Every episode introduces one or more concepts essential for the transformation of humanity to a galactic culture:
aliens, reincarnation, alternative realities, dimensions, time travel, star wars, peaceful coexistence, peaceful exploration, creator gods, spirituality, clairvoyance, telepathy, empathy, races of aliens in which logic dominates over emotions, interspecies hybridization, salvation of sentient species, channeling, Prime Directive and many more. I believe that aliens were not helping or were not helping much the creators of Star Trek. This was a great opportunity for the aliens to help the education of humanity about alien culture. It was a non-intrusive and entertaining way to teach humans about aliens. Much more could have been done if aliens would have helped. Star Trek continued for decades and there were many opportunities to bring the message over to the masses. Now this opportunity doesn't exist anymore with the creators of Star Trek: the project is over, the team is retired, and key creators are gone. Still, there are other movie and television projects which can be developed into educational tool similar to Star Trek. This time, use these opportunities. Some of creators of Star Trek are still alive, you ought to use their experience and expertise to revive the idea. Much more is to be said and speaking to new generations requires now a new cinematographic language.
While watching Star Trek you may be appalled by violence in it. Take into account that Star Trek has radically less violence than other movies. This limited amount of violence was justified since the public is used to it and it helped to get the message across.
