Well I'll try to throw my .02 in here in as civil of a manner as I can manage. I see a recurring theme here, being that Twilight is often associated with atheism because she's extremely interested in the pursuit of knowledge (most notably her scientific endeavors). I'll be quite honest and say that this stereotype makes me a bit agitated. I know that this thread wasn't meant to start a debate, and I won't try to. But I'm a straight A, academically focused student currently enrolled in the most advanced classes offered at my grade level, and I'm also a strong believing Non-Denominational Christian. It's just some food for thought, so if you feel the need to argue with me, please message me rather than clutter up the thread. Anyways, I won't bother categorizing the mane 6 into religions, mainly because a lot of times people's personalities don't really reveal a lot about their religious preferences. However, I do believe that Twilight learned a lot about having faith in the episode "Feeling Pinkie Keen". Now, based on her speculative view of Pinkie's behavior, I would venture to guess that Twilight could have been agnostic. Whether or not the events of the episode yielded a religious conversion is subject to speculation. TL;DR: Atheists aren't the only smart ones, and Twilight definitely learned the value of faith in "Feeling Pinkie Keen".

My best pony-buying story: My friend Carl and I were hanging out one day, and we decided to look for blind bags at Walgreen's. After looking through the entire box's pinholes, we finally found a normal Twilight Sparkle (for me) and a sparkly Rainbow Dash (for him). Being two teenage guys, we thought of an ingenious plan for fooling the cashier (an old lady). We picked up two Monster energy drinks and took them over to be rung up. We said we were getting some pony toys for my little sister, and we wanted to make sure we got her favorite ponies. "That's very sweet of you boys," she said. "I'm sure she'll like that." "I'm sure she will," I replied. And "she" certainly did. The total came up to be about 75 cents more than we had on hand, so we asked for the cashier to hold the Rainbow Dash for us (yes, we had to check the pinhole right in front of her) while we ran home and got the change. She agreed, and we did just that. The end.

I think I'm going to bet on October 10, 2012. The circumstances seem to point to episode 1 being released on the same day S1E1 aired... Coincidence? I think not.

Maybe I'm a little to optimistic, but perhaps they've finished season 3 and are working on season 4/ a movie? A movie could quite possibly be the most awesome thing ever. And maybe a head start on season 4 would lead to a smaller time gap in between seasons 3 and 4? Optimistic thinking never hurt anyone. Probably.
