Chantilas : [Suppose] we just finished poisoning the earth and everyone was dead in a hundred years. Then what was the point of anything? Art, beauty-all gone-the Greeks, the Constitution, people dying for freedom, ideas. None of it meant anything? What about religion? Do we give up on God too?
Gallagher : You didn't just give up being a scientist one day, did you?
Chantilas : I realized science couldn't answer any of the really interesting questions. So, I turned to philosophy. I've been searching for God ever since. Who knows, I may pick up a rock and it'll say underneath, "Made by God." The universe is full of surprises.

Dr. Quinn Burchenal : Uh oh - we're going to talk about God now, aren't we? 'Cause if we are, I'm going to need another pop.
Chantilas : Not God... . faith.
Dr. Quinn Burchenal : Faith? Oh, I had a girlfriend named Faith. She cheated on me, with a girl named Chastity.

Dr. Quinn Burchenal : [after a discussion of faith] Listen, let's forget about all the religious stuff for now. Now, I say, Commander Bowman, to hell with humanity. I say, we take it. We just take it over for ourselves!
Gallagher : [sounding very serious] Call Earth, tell them it sucks, and don't bother coming?
Dr. Quinn Burchenal : [laughs] Yeah, whatever keeps the riffraffs out. Chantilas, you can do the religion thing. Gallagher, you can keep the space john working... . Pettengail's... . passed out, and I can do pretty much everything else. King.
Commander Kate Bowman : What about me?
[Team members give Bowman a look because it's totally obvious]
Dr. Quinn Burchenal : You'll be my queen. Propagation of the species.
[Commander Bowman nods at him, and gets up and leaves]
Dr. Quinn Burchenal : It was just a, just a joke, Commander Bowman.
Chantilas : And on that note gentlemen, I suggest we all retire.
