Seems weird to me that you can make fun of these things but mention the open source movement, Linux or a dozen other "sacred" cows in a funny or disreputable light people like you begin acting exactly like wounded little bull's.
Heh heh heh... actually, I have other UIDs specifically for pointing out problems with OSS. I actually find it refreshing to see the other side of the argument. I bash OSS and promote stuff like NT to remind myself of NT's strengths, and then I go back and do the opposite to remind myself of GNU/Linux's strengths. Well, "remind" is the wrong word. Perhaps "clarify my perception of" is better. (It's easy, especially on this site, to start bashing MS for the wrong reasons. So it's helpful to step back and remind yourself that GNU/Linux sucks just as much as NT.) I find it makes me a better zealot, as I already have rebuttals to the opposition's questions.
(PS - No, I've never gone so far as to create my own thread with those UIDs.:-)

If you really want to read something logical on the situation I suggest you read alittle Bertrand Russell my favourite philosopher perhaps "Why I am not a Christian" or "A Free Man's Worship" or Nietzche or a dozen others. They can examine these issues without the diatribe.
Nietsche is wonderful. Maybe I'll check out thse others.

Re: baptist minister. For God's sake, stop reading everything so fucking literally. I was making reference to certain Baptist/Fundamentalist ministers that interpret everything in the Bible literally. As opposed to symbollically (sp?). You've proven my point without even trying.
And I'm not a "know-it-all". I was simply trying to contribute to the discussion. As an ex-Catholic (baptised and confirmed, who knows loaths the faith), I think I'm more qualified to speak about such things than a lot of people reading this. Now you come along and try to start a fight!
Tell me exactly what I said that was so wrong. I was always told that Jews accepted the Old Testament. And Jesus was Jewish. So isn't Christianity up to the point where Jesus is born based on the same history as Judaism?
As for my comment about Nazis and Christians, I was trying to point out that an awful lot of people have been persecuted for their beliefs by Christians. The Nazis are horrible, but so are the countless white supremacy groups that back up their racism with Bible interpretations. (And, of course, the Spanish Inquisition. No-one expects them, right?) No-one is exempt from being made fun of. Perhaps you wouldn't have taken the post so seriously if you remembered Godwin's Law, which I mentioned. Godwin's Law in a nutshell is "Any thread of sufficient length will eventually bring up Nazis in one way or another." I'm sorry if I offended you, and I know that people get, well, a little "religious" about the subject;), but you're going to have to get used to the fact that people make fun of Xianity, just like all religions, groups, products, companies, whatever... especially on this site.
I'm willing to accept that I was a little brash. But can we drop the flamewar? I'm not looking to promote hatred on Slashdot.

The point, dear boy, is to stop complaining about Slashdotters making fun of Christians. We make fun of anybody, and we don't need a reason. My point was that if we needed a reason, we needn't look very far.
And my advice to you, after reading this reply and your other reply to one of my posts today, is to calm the fuck down and don't take everything you read so literally. You sound like a Baptist minister.

Are you saying that we shouldn't make disparaging comments about Nazi Germany, either? Christians have killed even more people because of their beliefs as the Nazis did. Yes, I'm invoking Godwin's Law, and yes, I'm calling you a Nazi.;-p

Actually, Xians believe in a "Trinity", which is supposed to mean that The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit are one and the same being. And, supposedly, the relationship is so complex that no moral can ever hope to understand it. Convenient, eh?
That makes things even more complex in your explanation. (She fucked both her Father and her son.) But I don't remember any implication of sexual congress in the Bible... I thought God just made her pregnant, you know, by magic.;-) Your explantion is better, though. More reminiscent of Greek mythlogy, where Zeus was sort of like a Mediterranean Austin Powers.
But you don't have to believe in Christ's divinity (which, of course, is the definition of being Christian) to believe in a Christian God. Just convert to Judiasm. (Jesus was Jewish; why not?)

This does, of course, assume that the cloning works perfectly. If it does, it'll have a significant impact on the Endangered Species list . ..
Not only that, but it could turn out that the newly-cloned animals have the power to morph into Godzilla, as well as a "turbo mode" which allows them to Ninja-Kick At Amazing Speeds. And who wants animals like that?

So, what's the future of Life on Earth? I predict that an a few million years, wild animals will be considerably fluffier, they'll have huge eyes and tastefully attractive color schemes, and they'll enjoy being hand-fed and petted.

By the way, playing dead is one of your best defenses against any bear that takes an interest in you, so you were pretty smart to do so . ..

Hang your food pack in the air (but not close to a tree, some types of bears are good climbers)
In case anyone is confused by this, what you do is put your food in a garbage bag, tie off the top with a rope, throws the other end of the rope over a tree branch (as far out from the tree trunk as you can get without the branch breaking), use that end to pull up the trash bag, and then secure the end of the rope somehow (tie it around the tree trunk, or to a backpack).
