Exploits are much less common on FreeBSD and other BSDs because there are so few users using them when compared to Linux. In this light, the more bugs found in Linux, the more and more secure it gets. Also, anyone depending upon out-of-the-box security would not last very long as any paid system adminstrator in the real world.
The rest of your comments are just more urban myth that went out the window (and continue to fly out the window) with each successive Linux kernel release. Linux has already proven itself as a dependable server OS.
It's fun to watch stupid FleaBSD users pretend they have no serious bugs in a kernel which is used by about 1% of Internet users... FreeBSD 3.0 and 3.1 exploit of the week

More FUD from the FreeBSD advocates. Urban myth anyone?
