Doing something to protect the feelings  of someone you KNOW to be wrong
can only be justified, when that someone is somehow VERY special to you.
You  suggest, we  submit  to  someone's censorship,  before  it is  even
expressed! What  do we care about  those, who can't detect  the somewhat
amusing way  the "offending" sentenses  are constructed on the  fly from
random parts?

Should we change  the mascot too, so  as not to offend  the followers of
religions, which typicly depict The Evil like that?

IMHO, the  program is  sufficiently amusing,  and the  author cooperates
with the porting effort to keep it among thousands of our ports.
