    Something we all knew.
    It might be news to the people in the religion, though.

    "The first episode of the documentary shows Apple employees "whipped up into some sort of crazy, evangelical frenzy" at the recent opening of an Apple store in London."

    ----

    They are paid to promote Apple products. Seriously. Apple brings out all the crazies on both sides.

    so a MRI lit up the same way in religious people as Apple fans... and they think that makes conclusion? Maybe those areas light up in anything someone feels strong like for... I hate seeing results of studies always twisted to try to say something they don't say.

    The article isn't proof. The proof is what you see everyday. And that's not scientific, double-blind proof, but anybody who knows crazy can draw the parallels. It's on the message boards more than anything.

    It's not just Apple, but Apple has a lot of them. I think it's more a flaw in human nature that we all possess, but that company magnifies it.

    Fantastic, but this will result in a flamewar. Thread closed.
