(Hey Sunny, there are two seperate groups.  One is looking for Tanner's cure, the other is going to figure out a way to stop Clive.  The reason this is important is because the former group is the one having the God discussion and the former is the one who made the jetpack discovery.)

"I don't know, the idea of something powerful living in space doesn't sound that ridiculous." Tanner said, pretty much giving away that he knew nothing about the concept. "I mean, there's some pretty weird stuff on earth that science can't really explained.  And if science can't explain it, people turn to a supernatural explanation." The old world philosophers talked a lot about god. It was always 'in god we trust.'  Divine mandate. They seemed like pretty smart guys, and Tanner gave what these dead old men had said a lot of credit. He thought that if they believed in god, despite how irraltional the idea was, he had to give the space genie a chance.

"Thomas Hobbes says that, without a government, we revert to our 'state of nature.'"  Tanner scratched his head. "That doesn't really say much for humanity, does it?  So maybe we deserved this, causing our own destruction." He said. That seemed in line with Brotherhood theory. After all, the Brotherhood was adamant about saying that man's own arrogance and technological horrors are what lead to his fall, and they strove to prevent such a thing from ever happening again.
