Alright, I have read plenty of articles of people looking for deeper meanings in clouds and burning homes and even in mashed potatoes (ok, so that may have been a movie). My point is that no matter where a, and I quote a zealot looks, they will most certainly find a "deeper" meaning. I've heard one of my (bless her heart, as my g-ma would say) good friends who just happens to worship the ground G-d walks on (or doesn't) say that she has seen Jesus while she was riding her bike to school.
It's a funny thing how humans find a need for that kind of thing.
I don't buy the idea that the Matrix holds deeper meaning for Christianity or Buddhism or whatever. I do feel, however that there is a basic need to feel needed and important. One can look at ancient stories from pre-christianity that describe the same type of events. Come on, look at the Egyptian stories!
