Not Of Sound MInd,

It's not that most don't appreciate a defense of "the almighty." It's
just that such a defense is not needed. "HE" is "perfect" and can do
no "wrong" (given that this is an open source project that nobody has
to particpate in it).

Nobody will dispute your position, as an opinion maker . . . but, as
you may have noticed, through the years, that making such opinions
open to this list only adds to the sarcasm/hatred. I've defenitely
made myself vulnerable to such abuse (this is probably a case in
point).

In the end, the use of "dude" does not make the comment less
sophistocated, but disapproval of such a comment only admits the lack
of sophistocation on the part of s/he who took offense.

Peace and may "GOD" bless America (oh . .  and OpenBSD).
