True Q

From:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_Q_(TNG_episode)

The Enterprise has received an intern from Starfleet Academy, Amanda Rogers, to study biological sciences under Dr. Crusher, but soon strange things start to happen. In a cargo bay, Commander Riker is nearly hit by a falling barrel, which mysteriously swerves to avoid hitting him mid-flight, astonishing the onlookers including Amanda. Later, when Amanda is in main Engineering, the warpcore suffers a catastrophic meltdown and explodes at the point of the intermix chamber. Amanda is able to repel the plasma/energywave with nothing more than her hands and reverse the damage to core. A bemused La Forge remarks that for a second ‘the laws of Physics went out the window‘. Suddenly Q materialises and remarks that why shouldn't the laws change, because ‘they're so restrictive‘.

He further states that Amanda is not human, but actually a Q, meaning that she inherited the powers of a Q.

The Enterprise receives a distress call from a stricken planet nearby - the power net of their ionic pollution systems are failing; if they are shut down, the planet's atmosphere will fill with ionic pollution and sunlight won't be able to reach the surface. Picard sends La Forge to help, aware that failure will lead to disaster. Amanda and Q join Picard on the bridge as La Forge tries to keep the planetary systems open, but is failing fast. Q taunts Amanda saying that if she doesn't join the continuum she won't be able to resist using her powers. As the reactor fails Amanda makes a choice and removes all ionic pollution from the atmosphere.

All I can say is, case by case basis. Hence, Gaea now and the help we are getting. smile

nothing is sacred, the deconstructing and letting-be of all things, clarity of sight, the realization of no-thing(s), Nothing
