EDIT:
it might be an interesting (and completely useless) task to make a distribution with packages for every religion translated into every language.
Honestly, I think internationalization alone is enough "fun", also (IMHO) a good computer OS should be neutral to anything (religion, politics, etc), since computers and faith are completely unrelated to each other.
Everybody is ok with the current existance of a plethora of Linux distributions which strive to serve the needs of various groups of people; but when something targeted towards a specific religious group comes out...

Oh the drama. So don't use Ubuntu Christian Edition KTHXBYE.
Description from DW: "The goal of Ubuntu Christian Edition is not to bring Christianity to Linux but to bring Linux to Christians."

I have no plans to use it, nor to use SatanicUbuntu either.

Really, a fellow 'orthodox', cool! It is nice to see more of us around. Honestly if I were born into a non orthodox belief, such as evangelical, it would be far more easier for me to just outright consider myself an atheist, but I am just agnostic. I have a long mistrust of evangelicals and other 'so-called-christians' which stems with the tying of the majority of these people and the policies of Bush, but I did not mean to go too far into this, so I digress immediately and leave it at that.

True, and I have actually listened to quite a few podcasts from the Church of The Subgenius. Quite entertaining if I may say so. The style of the 'sermons' are like those of the 'evangelicals', but thats what makes it so funny, and it is a clear attack on these types of religious twats and also particularly the Church of Scientology. I like that, and as far as I'm concerned religion does need a good slap in the face. The Church of The Subgenius is more or less a 'parody' religion, see their site, or the wikipedia article on them.
Discordian Linux. You install it on your computer, and then realize that it has instead installed itself on your parent's computer or your other computer, even though the computer you intended to install it on, is not even connected to your network.
