If Programming Languages Were Religions

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the worship-his-noodliness dept.

bshell writes "With Christmas around the corner I know we are all thinking about religion, or at least maybe wondering why this one religion dominates the rest for these few weeks. A fellow named Rodrigo Braz Monteiro (amz) posted this list comparing each programming language to a religion. Guaranteed to make you chuckle and generate a good long thread here on slashdot. Great way to pass the time as work winds down this week and we relate to our own programming faiths during this very special time of year. Merry PHPmas." Fortunately Pastafarianism is referenced.

    Uhm.

    This is the only language which allows you to shoot yourself in the foot very, very easily.

    No, C is not restrictive. It requires a LOT of discipline, though.

    A good start would be for them to publicly condemn acts of terrorism by muslims. Have you noticed that whenever a christian commits an atrocious act in the name of their religion, the pope or someone immediately condemn the act? As far as I know, nothing like that has ever happened with muslims. This makes it look a hell of a lot like the muslim world as a whole is in favor of terrorism.
