No Bash?! Can you really see a real deity writing scripts without tab-completion?! (Not to mention he'd want to use a Free Software solution rather than a proprietary, closed one).

Personally, though, I think the mere existence of perl is proof that God doesn't exist, or that if he does he hates me...

I know some people think Richard Stallman is God, but even He would admit that he isn't. :-)

God might use Free Software, but surely surely doesn't write it: we've not been given the source code. We're having to reverse engineer it.

apt-get install universe-src

Maybe he'd give it us if anyone asked him for it - he's just not provided it as a default, to save disk space. But of course those who ask him stuff the most (the priesthood) make too much money from providing tech support to want anyone to be able to do anything by themselves.

God's Will being frustrated by Downstream? Say it ain't so!
