This ep was supposed to be about the Enterprise finding God, as it was something Roddenberry wanted to do - but execs balked again. Was changed from God & religion to magic and the Devil. Oooo! :) pic.twitter.com/LlQV9gP8oT

A lot is made of magic. The Megans are said to be another race that helped Earth in early days. A Salem witch trial puts Kirk & crew on trial for events from said early days. Better than I remember. pic.twitter.com/dQNFrhgGPc
