Since the major portion of the world's misery, both past and present, can be directly attributed to organized religion, I find this incessant prattling about the "demon" (INTENTIONAL misspelling) logo and some of the other things like this thing below to be totally offensive. The Middle East is in a shambles and those people have been squabbling for 5000 years over who's ideas about God are right. Europe has fared no better and neither has the New World - just ask the Native Indian population. Millions of people have died over religion. It doesn't really matter which one. Pick one - they are ALL equally guilty. The short-sighted narrow-minded viewpoint expressed below is PRECISELY the mind-set that encourages and promotes things like the Inquisition. Since it does nothing but add to the sum total of human misery, I find postings like this to be highly offensive. If you think that you might be going to hell over reading something that says "cvsup666", then you are probably already in one and too brainwashed to get out. > > > > >At >http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html, >cvsup666 is used as an example.
