I am Christian. I worship Jesus Christ. I do a Bible study mailing list
for a prison ministry. I keep a database for a ministry to the homeless
and keep in touch with my partners in ministry through email. It just so
happens that I can do these things much more effectively on Linux than I
can on Windows. I have never used Mac, so I can't say whether or not it
is better or worse than Linux, but the sharing of knowledge and even
products that we see in the Linux community, is much closer to Biblical
priciples than the rampant capitalism we see in Apple and Microsoft. I
don't bow down to Tux as an idol, but I do salute Linus for his gift to
the world and the whole concept of open source. I just downloaded the
Bible Reader, a very good Bible program by David White, which rivals
some very expensive commercial software. He also personally responded to
a question I posted on this list and his response corrected the problem
I was having. IHaven't gotten that kind of support anywhere else, even
for a fee.

in Tux we type, but in God we trust
Yah Veh Nissi, is our banner!
Yah Shua Messiach, is Sovreign Shalom!
