Star Trek - To Boldly Go Where No Man Has Gone Before (?)

In the Mid 1960s, a stately television series did Roddenberry decree.

 

And at first glance, the universe of Star Trek seems to be utterly fantastic, there's  peace, love, security of the person, everyone has something to do. Everyone has rejected wealth in favor of bettering themselves and the universe. There is a huge fleet of scientific research space craft which double as warships. We've learned to "travel faster than light" and have made friends all over this portion of the galaxy. But there is a dark side to both Star Fleet, and the United Federation of Planets. A dark side many refuse to see, and which many fans would jump all over me for saying. But I'm going to say it anyway.

Money is gone (or is it?)

Christianity is a footnote in history.

There is only one government on Earth.

There is only one government for the UFP

What will the future TRULY be like? I don't think it's what Gene Roddenberry tried to convince us it would be like.
