        The Greek gods in Star Trek are much weaker than the Q. The Klingons might actually have a chance of defeating them.

          So long as the Q don’t disrespect the honor of the Klingons, fine…

          But I don’t see the Klingons backing down from a suicidal fight against the Q just because it’s impossible

            Going against an enemy that can turn them and their ancestors into tribbles might be the limit of Klingon foolhardiness.

              But let’s approach this problem with the heart of a true warrior. The Q has wants and needs, if the enemy is entrenched in a undefeatable fortress, you go after their supply chain, or their pride.

              Imagine a fleet of Klingon ships takes Picard hostage and zips him away via a sun based time distortion event to before the Q’s had power or to after they did.

              Q can be sad, mad, lonely… all those emotions are vulnerabilities. Grab them and squeeze like a true warrior.

          They would definitely defeat them. Kirk and a small away party defeated one of them without even having full access to the ship.

        There’s an episode in the original series where they encounter an alien who claims he is one of the original Greek Gods. He uses technology to perform miracles and demands affection and praise. I think that is the alien they’re referring to.

      Pretty sure earth has wiped out most of them during the ‘Wormhole X-Treme!’-era of 2000s
