I use to watch this series and had no clue about the Religious overtones that are showed throughout the series. This probably dosent really apply to any of you besides rabbit since he watches Anime. But if you could click that link and read I think it be quite interesting and worth your time.
THE EXPLOSIONS
ARE
CROSSES!!
THE ENEMIES
ARE
ANGELS!!!
WTF? How did you not realize?
Anyway, this is like, the reverse Bible. The movie is kind of like the Rapture (if the Rapture involves everyone popping and turning into orange goo).

I believe that would be "the rupture", not "the rapture".
/me notes that NGE is an anime, not a religion.
Off-topic or general, maybe? I don't think it belongs here, but I'm too indifferent to move it. :)
Joe, have you ever seen NGE? It's directly about Christianity.

Well Indirectly because they never actually mention Christianity at all. Just overtones that are pretty simple to spot.
Except for the part where THE ENTIRE SHOW IS ABOUT ADAM, EVE, AND LILITH KTHX
Rupture! Hello! That's good humour. :(

Hehe, poor iago! :)
Shinji likes Rei who is made from parts of Yui, his mother! Kinky.
Anyway, yeah, there are
definite Christian overtones on almost everything that happens in it.
More detail:
Gendo is Shinji's dad.
Yui is Shinji's mom.
Yui is dead.
Shinji pilots a bio-robot powered by Yui's soul.
Shinji wants to stick it in Rei's butt. Rei is a clone of Yui-parts.

I does he ever shack it up with Rei?
No.
