Being a half human, half God helps. The writers made him Star Trek Jesus who could turn the Star Trek universe into a dream.
That's why I didn't like him that much. Perfection is boring. Sisko was more interesting. Would any other captain have done what Sisko did in In the Pale Moonlight, to get an ambassador assassinated and forge evidence for the sake of a war? No one. Picard would've had moral qualms, and Janeway and Kirk would neither have thought of the idea or even worked with Garak at all. Sisko gets s*** done no matter what! And as if that weren't enough... in a tight spot he can just call on The Prophets to smite everyone. :grin:
