Pretty much exactly how I feel. Being Jewish to me has nothing to do with Judaism as a religion.
Hai, or Khai as they pronounce it (חי) is "Alive" in Hebrew, but usually means the number 18. I could keep explaining it, but my point is it has very little to do with religion and more with tradition. There's a thin difference, but it's there
Nice disclaimer at the start "If you're not a gullible conspiracy theorist, please don't watch this so you won't be able to debunk it to others later!". Scientologists do the same thing, not allowing lower-level members or outsiders to hear about Xenu until they're deep in.
I'm still at the matrix bit, however. I just felt like commenting on this cheap tactic
A chicken farmer finds his chickens keep dying mysteriously. He goes and hires a Veterinarian. After a week, the vet comes back and says "I can't really help you, but you should contact my friend the Biologist, he might be able to help." So the farmer calls the Biologist and after another week, he comes back saying "I'm sorry, I don't have a solution, but if you call my friend the Physicist, he could probably help you out." So the farmer calls the Physicist, waits a week, then another and another, and finally the Physicist calls him back and says "Good news! I have a solution for you, but it only works for spherical chickens in a vacuum."

A university asks several departments to come up with a way to prove all odd numbers are prime. The Math department said: "1 is prime, 3 is prime, 5 is prime, the rest is proven through Induction." The Physics department said: "1 is prime, 3 is prime, 5 is prime, 7 is prime, 9 is an experimental error, 11 is prime and so on..." The Computer Science department said: "1 is prime, 3 is prime, 5 is prime, 3 is prime, 5 is prime...."

I know nothing about the whole Twilight phenomenon, but I found this quote entertaining: "Twilight: A young woman's choice to practice either bestiality or necrophilia."

Lego Matrix Trinity Help!
Awesome. But this reminds me how amazing the first movie was, and how disappointing the sequels were
What are you talking about? They never made any sequels...

Tell me how he is different than bush?
He actually gave it thought before doing it. Also, he can probably find Afghanistan on a map.
