and why was he so opposed to killing the natives?
I think one reason was because he didn't understand them. And in his mind, until he understood what he was dealing with he couldn't make a logical decision on how best to deal with them.

This is certainly true, at least at first. However, Spock is a quick study. What hampered him was the distraction of command - he was generally a better advisor than executive. Kirk would have sucked as a science officer.

No question.
Okay - last call for The Galileo Seven - next up, Court Martial.

I have to disagree a little here. I think he was expecting them to react logically. By demonstrating superior weaponry, he thinks logically the hunter gatherers should flee. What bugs me about that is, he's constantly talking about flawed, emotional humans. Shouldn't he be intelligent/educated enough to realize that a primative species might not be logical enough to grasp that?
