Borat's Religion

Borat's Religion

In the film, Borat discloses that as a Kazakh he "follows the hawk." This may be a reference to the present flag of Kazakhstan which depicts a golden steppe eagle flying under a golden sun on a blue background. Ghengis Khan flew a blue flag with an eagle when he ruled Kazakhstan. Alternatively, this may be the reference to al-Haqq - "the truth" in Arabic. In Hebrew, Hoq is a Divinely-ordained Law that is above reason. However, during the course of the film he visits a Pentecostal service, and at the end of the film, while back in his village declares that he and, ostensibly, the rest of his village are now Christians.
