Fortunately for the rest of us, the FSM is compatible with the GPL.

The GPL allows you to modify the original work. The bible, however, clearly states that it is the word of God and should not be modified. It is therefore not GPL-compatible. The codebase it’s based on is also of dubious origin.

But even if the licensing terms weren’t crap, it’ll never catch on. It’s a buggy beta release that’s been ported to other languages or forked dozens of times because the developers can never agree on a single design. It’s also not very user-friendly: The interface tends to kill people, especially before you patch it to SP1 (New Testament). I’d be surprised if they aren’t bankrupt in a year.

The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully.

“No hair cuts” said Leviticus

It’s Time For Changing And Cleansing Everything:


  And the swine, he is unclean to you. And all that have not fins and scales in the seas, and in the rivers, they shall be an abomination unto you. (Leviticus 11:7-12) (Thou shalt not eat pork, shrimp, lobster, or any shellfish.)
  
  Thou shalt not sow thy field with mingled seed: neither shall a garment mingled of linen and woollen come upon thee. (Leviticus 19:19) (Thou shalt not wear clothes of mixed fibers.)
  
  Every one that curseth his father or his mother shall be surely put to death. (Leviticus 20:9)
  
  You shall not round off the side-growth of your heads nor harm the edges of your beard. (Leviticus 19:27)
  
  If a man lies with a man as one lies with a woman, both of them have done what is detestable. They must be put to death. (Leviticus 20:13)
  
  You can’t pick and choose which rules of Leviticus apply to society or do not. Either follow every rule because it is the word of God, or follow none of them because it is not. I say we just trash the whole thing. Just saying.

Beware of God

Gud finns nog inte

Gud finns nog inte

Gud finns nog inte

Gud finns nog inte

Gud finns nog inte

This is an advertisement campaign in the Stockholm’s tunnelbana (underground). “Gud finns nog inte” means “God probably doesn’t exist” and as you can imagine it’s a pro-secularization campaign pointing out the influence religion still has on swedish society, even to those who aren’t religious.

I found the joke with the swedish flag quite original and amusing. It really points out the pervasiveness of religion — christianity in this case — into such a common thing as the swedish flag.
