The more I think about the finale the less I like it. I'm fine with the mythology aspects, the angels and such, I don't mind earth 2.0, or Hera being Eve.
But by deciding not to learn from, accept responsibility for, or even acknowledge the history of humanity the survivors are essentially saying 'Frack it, I quit.' It's a betrayal of the courage and determination that the early seasons of BSG chronicled.
I could accept this ending if it was forced onto the survivors, if they were stranded on Earth2 without their ships or tech or tools and had to make do. But to choose this? No.
