Ok, so I know that when I post any of my half-baked ideas, people without any imagination tend to boo me offstage and beat me with telephone poles. But you guys gotta listen on this one, I think I've got something going here! So why does the rainbow colored pegasus represent upholding promises and being loyal?

No seriously, I'm an atheist for the record, but there are some stories in the christian holy book that are worth reading and have had tons of influence in pop culture.

We'll take this step by step. With pictures.

1. Rainbow dash is rainbow.

Yes, I know, it's a very hard concept to grasp. Took me years to get this one.

2. Noah's Ark

(Minecraft because why not)

In the story, this dude builds a boat and there's a lot of water and etc.

3. Noah's Ark has a rainbow at the end.

Right? Ya follow me? Remember that?

4. The Rainbow represents the promise to never flood the earth again.

So far, the big guy has certainly kept that promise. I believe it says that is what it represents in the book itself and in a multitude of other sources.

5. Promises are upheld by loyalty.

and the WLMG thought they were so clever...

I mean come on guys, it don't take a genius to figure this one out. The two are AT LEAST related.

6. Rainbow Dash was chosen for the element of Loyalty because of her rainbow colors.

Let's recap.

Rainbows in the bible go to promises go to loyalty goes to Rainbow Dash goes to Rainbows and repeat.

Ta da!

Now you're probably like "oh blah blah blah it's a kids show they wouldn't have thought about it that deeply blah blah blah its not religious blah blah blah"

Well I'll have you know that Lauren Faust is reputable for being an excellent writer and makes similar allusions in much of her content. I would expect nothing less intricate from her mind. Also, this doesn't make it religious. The bible is a part of history and pop culture as I said before. Its use and reuse through stories does not mean technical relation to the faith (they did greek myth in the show "Arthur" from PBS, does that mean it's a greek show???).
