it wasn't a dumb idea at all and Bruce had nothing to do with it. He wouldn't have had any knowledge of Soga's importance to the series.

that's utterly ridiculous. It may be a different dimension but it's not an alternate universe like RPM was.

I do agree that it's too much power for her to have in regards to creating a realm but just because she was purified doesn't mean she was a normal human being. All we saw of her after being struck by the Z-Wave was being asked by Zedd if she wanted a dance. She may look human but that doesn't tell us whether she still has powers or not.
They weren't acting like CtD had never happened that's just a bad assumption that you're trying to spin.

it makes no sense? of course it makes sense.

Well a lot of things could have happened off screen. I would prefer it was more easily explained. But I am sure there is a good reason to be made in continuity.

yea it would've been nice if there was an explanation for it but they didn't have the time for it.

exactly. Some people have to whine and complain about anything and everything.

If she did she probably didn't have it when she was evil. Ranger magic was probably higher in power.

that's a good theory and you're exactly right with the moon mud.

Just because she was turned human doesn't mean she's a normal human. Did you see her do anything but react to Zedd's purified form? No you didn't so you can't say just based on that scene that she's a normal human there's no possible way any of us can tell whether she still has magic or not.
