as i stated in a different post, i took this like he wouldn't live with
some one unless they had they had the exact same religious beliefs. 
basically, that if you were jewish or agnostic, regardless of what you are
like as a person, that you couldn't live with the guy. i took this
interpretation and hastily replied.  i've already said that it was wrong,
and i'm sorry to anyone who got deeply offend.

i'll admit the quick temper. for the record, i'm christian, and i have no
desire to impress all of my CS major friends. did one other person agree
with me? no, so that was definitely not the point of the excercise. in no
way did i post that to be "cool" because we can tell i'm not winning any 
popularity points here.
