(CNN) -- Next time Grandma asks why you're going to the mall on Sunday morning instead of church, tell her you're going to Apple Chapel.
For Apple fans, the brand triggers a reaction in the brain that's not unlike that of religious devotees, according to a BBC documentary series that cites neurological research.
The neuroscientists ran a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) test on an Apple fanatic and discovered that images of the technology company's gadgets lit up the same parts of the brain as images of a deity do for religious people, the report says.

Meh. Do that to any fanatic and you'll probably get the same results. Grab one of this shirtless fat dudes with the painted face at football games and you'll see the same sort of zeal. It's probably some sort of common thread among over do-ers in any area.
 
Buying an Apple computer is like joining a cult. I could see it. :)
