View Poll Results: What religion do you believe Linux is most like?
I don't think Linux it's about a specific religion. Tough I'm a proud orthodox christian I'm well aware that in this Linux concept evolution were involved so many programers or freelancers from so many nationalities and religions, who brought open source programs to the next level because they wanted to give something accessible and safe to the world, that it would be unfair to say Linux it's more christian or buddhist or anything else. I don't think you can resume Linux to a specific religion. More appropriate would be to resume it to a certain kind of human nature.
If you can't take the heat, don't start the flame.
Very true. How in the world you managed to put the debian icon in your replies? I'm using Debian squeeze with sidux kernel and in my replies appear only two penguins

Do you have Firefox? If so, click this link. Type "useragent" in the "Filter" box, and then modify these strings:
Code:
general.useragent.Vendor: Debian
general.useragent.vendorComment: squeeze
general.useragent.vendorSub: $VERSION (whatever your Debian version is).
Native people (Africans, Am. Indians, Aboriginals etc) of the world...they believed in the great spirit, earth and humans are one! They lived in harmony with Earth. Before the corrupt religions came and ruined it.

Any religion can be corrupted, so I don't believe that.
I'm getting old (or more reasonable). Despite (or because of) having strong opinions about the issue, I can't really be bothered to post a serious reply in this thread.
Back on topic: The answer is NONE. Religion is a matter of faith - and I don't need to believe in my linux os. AFAIK, Scientists have proven the existence of linux.
Besides, even I can prove that linux exists. Here are my 5 indisputable proofs:
1. I can break linux, therefore linux exists.
2. I can dowload linux, therefore linux exists.
3. England is going to win the World Cup, therefore linux exists.
4. The milk in my fridge has gone bad, therefore linux exists.
5. ...sugar, I forgot the last one. Sorry.
Though you could argue that if England for whatever reasons actually wins the world cup, it must've been some sort of divine intervention and therefore somehow some $deity helped, therefore in that case makes linux then connected to $deity's religion too...
(that said, I don't waste my time with football and hence can't argue the exact validity of that )
