Hi!

Well, yes there have also been some efforts/thoughts on this.

Personally I like angels, too, but they are associated with some religion,
so islamic countries may see this really serious.

Also I remember some thoughts from some kind of christian organisation to
bring out a purified UNIX for christian use... They intended to clean all
foul language out of it, so thet even the commands like kill, terminate,
etc would have to be renamed, of course there are no demons (pardon
daemons, but there is no difference since they are also somewhat small and
creepy) etc. Of course the fortune file needs to be replaced of bible
verses... 

This should have been based on some kind of Linux, I mean to recall...
