So it had to happen at some point, but I wasn't totally digging this episode of Battlestar Galactica. All the episodes up to this point have been a huge "thumbs up" from me, so I suppose it was inevitable that a mid-season entry would sag a bit in comparison.

I'm not understanding how Cylons are reborn (can't spell resurrection)...I thought the thoughts of dying Cylons are transmitted back to base ship, then a new Cylon was grown, and the memories implanted. I'm confused about this whole thing....help!

Note that it never actually happened, it was just a fear. It may have been paranoia, as opposed to a real problem. However, it does appear that the Colonial fleet now has a doomsday option to at least temporarily disable Cylon ships, and a President ready to let them use it. Roslin is a lot more of a hardass than her soft-spoken mein and education background let on...
I think they said the disease was some sort of meningitis (?). If so, the idea that they all access data by putting their hands in (or otherwise touching) liquid makes the fear of transmission a somewhat legit one.
Helo was ambivalent about the genocide because he loves his wife. Adama was ambivalent about it because he has some sympathy for Boomer/Athena/Sharon. They both probably wonder if there are others like her (that don't actively want to "destroy all humans"). I don't think this is unthinkable or irrational. It's a lot harder for a sane and decent person to kill someone they know (and beings that are at least superficially like her would account for 1/12 of their targets, right?) than to kill a faceless enemy, or turn off malfunctioning machines. I think Adama might have been relieved by the "out" that Helo provided.

Amy... those are very good explanations for the Helo being sympathetic to the Cylons. It reminds me that Adama is obviously feeling more in touch with the Cylons, since he trusted Sharon to go down to New Caprica as part of his rescue plan.
Good drama means conflict, and maybe a huge conflict would be for the Galactica fleet to start working with the Cylons.
That would piss off a lot of the humans, especially Tigh and Starbuck, and probably a lot of viewers too, but it sure would be interesting.
Uh, and after all, Star Trek the Next Generation had a Klingon on the bridge, so anything is possible...
