Talk:Q (species)
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference.

- Fairly respectable
According to this article Guinan said that "most Q are fairly respectable". In my recollection Guinan said in the episode "Q Who" that some Q are almost respectable.

[edit] Origin of the Q
In the TNG episode All Good Things, Q seems to imply that humanity itself one day evolves into the Q. He and Picard have this exchange:
- Q: "For that one fraction of a second, you were open to options you had never considered. That is the exploration that awaits you. Not mapping stars and studying nebulae, but charting the unkwnon possibilities of existence."
- Picard: "Q, what is it that you're trying to tell me?"
- Q then goes as if to whisper something in Picard's ear but then pulls back and just says, "You'll find out."
Is that idea supported anywhere else or am I just delusional? --Mishachan 06:05, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
- I don't think humanity evolves into the Q. Didn't Q once tell Riker that one day, we will evolve to a level beond the Q, and become even more powerful than them? If that's the case, then humanity won't evolve into the Q, but instead will evolve into somthing even more powerful. 141.154.162.11 22:01, 29 January 2007 (UTC)
Yes, but if humanity is to evolve in such a fashion then at some point we must reach the Qs' level of existence; with the ability to live outside of what we see in the show (and reality) as the normal space-time continuum. Humanity could still be what we see as the Q, since time doesn't apply necessarily in the same linear way. Regardless, little is mentioned to support or deny these theories in canon. -LupusCCCLIX 07:54, 11 August 2007 (UTC)
