the other two strong females of the show, Athena and Caprica Six, are also believers.

And Baltar mostly believes in himself of course! ;- )

Oddly enough the fact that the females are believers don't bother me much. Could be because it's just so Greek, the women being basically the guardians of religion.

As for Cain/Gina, it's indeed a perfectly good plot point and I really don't understand how anyone could think otherwise. The lesbian affair didn't come from nowhere and thinking that it is just a way to be politically correct or that it is a homophobic stereotype is just forgetting everything about the show.
It made totally sense for Gina to seduce Cain, it's just what the Six did back then, it's part of their program, they infiltrated, used their incredible sex-appeal and shagged their way to the core of power in order to get access to the defense. Of course both Caprica Six and Gina got a bit too close to human beings for their own sake in the mean time.

although I'm not sure if I'd count Athena as religious to be honest, while she clearly *knows* a lot about their religion, she gave Helo a look when Hera was born and he said it was almost enough to make you believe in the cylon god which made me think she herself wasnt a believer in it.
