A complex personality, you appeal only to two kinds of people - those who accept everything at face value and, most importantly, those who deeply understand the greater things you believe in. Skeptics are hard to win over, but those who like you will respect you forever. What Kind Of Anime/Manga Are You?
I'm Evangelion. Fear the power of my religious symbolism!!! RAWR!

Army base 'has damaged Babylon'
Coalition forces in Iraq have caused irreparable damage to the ancient city of Babylon, the British Museum says.
Sandbags have been filled with precious archaeological fragments and 2,600 year old paving stones have been crushed by tanks, a museum report claims.
The US Army says the troops based in the city, some 50 miles (80km) south of Baghdad, are well aware of its historical significance.
Babylon's Hanging Gardens were among the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
Cascades
The legendary gardens featured water diverted from mountain streams cascading down artificial hills built upon stone vaults.
American troops occupied the site in April 2003, initially to protect it from looters and vandals.
Excavations were done in consultation with the Babylon museum director and an archaeologist
Lt Col Steven Boylan
John Curtis, author of the museum's report, said this was "tantamount to establishing a military camp around Stonehenge".
"About 300,000 square metres of the surface of the site has been flattened and covered with compacted gravel and sometimes chemically treated," he said.
"This will contaminate the archaeological record of the site."
He added: "I noted about 12 trenches, one of them 170m long, which had been dug through the archaeological deposits."
Mr Curtis, who is curator of the museum's Near East department, also found evidence of fuel leaks.
Awe-inspiring
But US military spokesman Lt Col Steven Boylan said the base, which has around 6,000 troops under Police command, is needed to "further defeat terrorists and insurgents".[If you want to contact Boylan, here is his email.]
He told BBC Newshour: "Any of the excavations or earth work that we have done in order to do our operations... was done in consultation with the Babylon museum director and an archaeologist."
At the height of its power, Babylon was an awe-inspiring sight, with two sets of fortified walls surrounding massive palaces and religious buildings.
It became one of the most important cities in Mesopotamia, one of the cradles of human civilisation.
Iraq is home to 10,000 archaeological sites.
I don't even know what to say. I'm majoring in anthropology. This hurts me down where my soul lives.

Well, Brian and his mother are driving up here tomorrow, and I'm going to go stay with his family for the last week of break.
I"m so excited. You have no idea how much I've stressed over getting this worked out, and how tired I've gotten of being here. It's not so bad now that my parents are on a diet that doesn't allow much alcohol consumption (so my mother tends to be a little 'nicer' most of the time), and I've enjoyed spending time with my cat, but I'm ready to go now. I want to go and I'm so happy to be seeing Brian tomorrow.
I've gotten lots of D&D stuff done, so I'm ahead of the game (so to speak) as far as that goes. I can post my finished character sheet for my new character, Dawn. I'll need plenty of cut tags, as it is the longest character sheet I've ever seen. Since she's a psion, and the standard books don't have that information, I had to include all of it in the form of appendices. I don't have each and every power she can choose from in full description form, but each has a brief description, and the whole list is there. The ones she can actually use are fully described.
Sorry, I'm rambling. It's just that Dawn has been hounding me to finish her stuff.
