HAHAHA, very fun!

Yes, programming languages really have religious-like undertones and followers.

I wonder which programming language would best represent atheism,
and which one agnosticism.

When I looked at the IA32 reference manual, I quickly concluded that
there is, in fact, no god.
So maybe you're right!

OK, you've both proven your indoctrination beyond any doubt by demonstrating
the inability to imagine that there may be people out there who do not
program at all. <g>
By the way, assembly is old school, orthodox religion.

I was leaning towards agnosticism, largely because it doesn't care what
actual language ends up being used. It just knows there's a language
that will be used at some point.

Bash script programmers are extremely religious about their use of bash.

Agnostics tend to lean towards the programming language they were brought
up with, but will acknowledge any language that's proven to work. Atheists
of course don't have a programming language and scorn those who feel the
need to burden themselves with one.

So perhaps Atheists would be represented by a RAD development tool like

Sure there is. That's not what he's referring to by *if*, but to the
fact that programming languages *are* religions and, thus, should need
no *if*. ;)

Well yes, I assume she's still free, but even she lives something like
1500km away from me. Besides, I don't know how cute she is, since I've
never seen her.

Yep! Also, you have only my word that the almost-local stores girl is

it'll be me, it's my opinion that counts.

She is *not* free - that's the trouble...
(She's "cute" if you don't mind "not tall and not skinny".)

Surely that'd be athiesm (yeah - I know, not technically a religion, but
you know what I mean) a completely rationalistic take on the programming
universe by following scientific deduction."

Hey, you ripped my idea!
And yes, Prolog is atheism: your brain works, you don't care nobody, you
are a machine, so in conclusion, you don't need to believe in nobody."
Agnosticism
-----------
"Troy Howard said...
Regarding HTML == Atheism.. Rather XML = Atheism, and HTML ==
Agnosticism. HTML doesn't quite know what it is, but it's something to
do with programming and data, and it might have a little Javascript
embedded in it just to make things work.
SQL would be prayer... Used by all religions, in slightly different
ways, in order to query God (the database).
"
"Anonymous said...
BASIC = Agnosticism. Everyone starts out here, unless firmly
indoctrinated in another religion from birth. It isn't very useful,
except to say that you believe in something, but it certainly isn't
going to claim miracles or such."
If you have a Mozilla Browser you can set it to search while you write,
is so usefull, specially in long and interesting pages like this one.

I forgot to say that I loved the description of Haskell as a religion,
now I feel Haskell was meant for me as C to its "followers".
I thought I was a Christian but looks like I'm a Taoist now :D.

Well, I do prefer the tall and skinny ones (also long and dark/red hair
and green eyes), but there's nothing wrong with short and skinny ones.
But the most important part is the smile. If something catches my
vision, it's natural and honest smile - nothing beats it.

It always puzzles me how everybody thinks this "minor detail" isn't a

She has golden brown hair. Recently she dyed it a slightly reddish
tinge. I'm not completely sure, but I think her eyes are brown...
She does, however, have a very beautiful smile. And she smiles a lot.
She's definitely a girlie girl - even if she does play hockey... She
always seems to be bubbly and giggly.
Oh, and did you notice? She's leaving the company. :-S

It's a universal attitude. Obstacles are slowdowns, not obstacles.
Removing the obstacle might eg. require shutting one life down oslt
(don't let her know!) and the relationship based on such removal won't
last long nor be a healthy one, but it's possible.

Ok. Brown eyes fit well with reddish brown hair.

So she might have my attention out in the public. Possibly.

That's positive thing for sure.
