    Uh… He wasn’t against allowing anyone to believe in a god of gods. He only took issue with people worshipping “The Picard” and Ardra scamming.

      He gave a speech about how they had moved past religion and he wasn’t going to allow them to go back to superstition

        Nah. There is a whole omnipotent being with a massive crush on him and Picard treats him like a nuisance he deals with at regular intervals. First thing he did when Q got briefly depowered was put him in the brig.

        Picard knows the Koala is real but he has zero respect for cosmic marsupials in general.

      He knew Ardra was a phony, but still passed up the opportunity.

      That takes some restraint and willpower, as opposed to Will-power, cause we all know Riker would.

          While I don’t doubt he (or Picard) could have bagged Cindy Crawford, you can tell they weren’t in the same room based on lighting and shadows.
