Started watching it on Pluto and only in the first season but I’m liking it. I’ve seen random episodes here and there and my dad rented the movie once it was available at blockbuster. Plus it’s cool to see a show with Air Force members as an Air Force vet. I assume since it ended before the woke era there aren’t any major girlboss moments.

The Ori were complete trash. Those seasons were completely extraneous. Chore to sit through any of it. Even the space battles sucked. Ori ships looked like oversized toilet seats.
You could tell the writers just despised the Catholic Church and did everything in their power to demonize Catholics. There wasn't any subtlety to it, either. It was just pure cringe.
Aye, the Ori were definitely based loosely on a general "Christian" theme, with an emphasis on Catholic vibes. Like that kind of thing was okay when it sprang up in individual episodes, but it was just kind of yawn-inducingly boring and repetitive as part of the main story.
The Lucian Alliance thing was also kind of a bit of a snorefest. Conceptually, there was nothing wrong with it, but something about the execution was just not really engaging. Had similar issues with Baal and his clones, although he was at least occasionally fun in a few episodes.
Yeah, the Lucian Alliance was complete garbage. Another underwhelming group that came out of nowhere and just illustrated how bored the writers were with their show. They don't really make sense either, because the whole premise of the Go'uld was to keep the non-Jaffa population of humans ignorant and technically illiterate. That was essential to their whole 'I am your god' spiel.
