Jean-Luc Picard is the Captain of the Enterprise in Star Trek the Next Generation. His catch-phrase is "make it so".

Sobjectivist is a cross between subjectivist and objectivist. It derives added force because the first syllable "Sob" accurately describes what most of us do when the debate about the nature of the Gods is debated again.
