Just a note about the Tau, it is helpful to think of them as being like the Christian missionaries that went to Africa in the last century. They brought with them, knowledge, technology and medicine, and traded with the african tribes. They did this while trying to persuade the Africans to convert to Christianity, and often if the locals continued to refuse it would come to violence. The fact is this, the Tau don't care about religious beliefs or ideological Doctrines as long as others accept the Greater Good, but they have no mercy for those deemed "Imcompatible" with it. They are on the a mission to civilize the rest of the galaxy, and they don't care whether the rest of us savages want it or not. after all they know best. ;)
