Symantec: Religious Sites "Riskier Than Porn For Viruses"

First time accepted submitter kongshem writes "According to Symantec's annual Internet Security Threat Report, religious and ideological websites have far more security threats per infected site than adult/pornographic sites.

    The Quotations from Chairman Mao

    Dialectical and Historical Materialism (Stalin)

    These guys had the same ideals as you, eradicate religion from the minds of the feeble people.

    Irony: holding a faith-based belief that another's faith-based beliefs are evidence of intellectual inferiority because they're faith-based.
