6. I had to look this one up.

It's so absurd I had to confirm it.
Even if they believed what they said later every one of them knew what it looked like.
Every one of them knew they were praying before a golden idol in the form of a mortal they consider to be the Second Coming.

8. One of life's great maxims.

There are people out there who will believe and worship virtually anything. In this case, a gold spray painted, fully loaded Depends that's somehow going to save them from brown people and make hating OK again. To this day I cannot wrap my head around the attraction. Getting back at the smarty pants elites? Well, it only confirms what those elites thought of them to start with.
