On: Advanced Job Scheduling?

I'm trying to make my company's Unix boxes more mission critical in the area of job scheduling.

...way to use the phrase "mission critical" :-)

Why not discredit Christianity and Judaism, too?

Folks are just kinda thick about questioning the veracity of claims (hell, astrology still sells books and 900-number phone calls).

So... you can't respect other people's personal decisions on spirituality? Granted, the 900-numbers are gimmicky. But why should Astrology books be discredited as non-sense? Most mature people respect other's religious beliefs.

Although Astrology isn't a religion, it is faith-based, as religion is. Is Astrology scientific? No. Niether is the Bible (etc.). You might as well have worded that sentence to say "hell, astrology, christianity, and paganism still sell books...".

All I ask is that you respect other people's personal spiritual beliefs, whether that involves Astrology, Judaism, Wicca, or what have you. An exception is when you're discussing/debating spirituality or religion, but this isn't the case.

I don't believe in Christianity, but I don't attack a Christian's personal beliefs because I don't agree with them. I expect others to respect my personal beliefs the same way.
