Religious Fanaticism is a very strong in the Computer community. But, is it really a surprise that when a bunch of hairless apes created a new mental world, they created it with a complicated Quilt of religions and nationalities, and many became fanatical?
I am confidant the responces Xah will recieve will validate his observation on religious fanaticism. It is funny, Xah always questions people's Sacred Cow's, I have often noted that the reponces often read like the writings of religious fanatics. As a Georgian (US), the responces often remind me of the Dark Side (there is a Light) of the Southern Baptist Church, translated into Computer Speak. Software needs philosophers is an interesting point, perhaps the most important function of Philosophers is exposing Sacred Cows as just Cattle. --- Sam the Gardener http://SamFeltus.com http://SonomaSunshine.com -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
