Please do not confuse education (or - Lord help me - intelligence) with atheism. I am very well (liberally and technically) educated and certainly a theist. (Yes,..."a theist".) Many, many others are too - on both sides of the Atlantic. Einstein certainly was, but what did he know, right?:-)
I respectfully submit that education and atheism are only causally related in your mind (and some others' of course)....product of the trendy, secular-at-all-costs, knee-jerk "intelligence" (i.e. dogma) that's overrun modern academia IMO.
Ah, right, Oracle. This is how your customers read your spin, though: "We [customers] are always disappointed when [Oracle] feel[s] the need to [place blame] before a fix is available... What [Oracle] has done is [ensure we are not] at risk[ - only if third parties shut up, heed its whining, and play nicely!]"
Oracle makes the point itself: its customers are at risk - period....too bad Oracle's hot air hasn't lifted a fix off the ground yet!
I think it's funny that some geeks fight the rules of English like they're taking a stand against The Man - but happily comply with compilers and interpreters everyday!

Periods, semicolons, and colons all have their place in terminating independent clauses. Stop discriminating against the semicolon and colon! :-)) LOL
:-D
On the other hand, "Of course, Webster's..." is a categorical mistake. (...should clearly be "Of course, [Webster]...".)
