While I'd like to avoid the religion flamewar, I should point out that I was only presenting a parody of an earlier "As a Christian" post with a different response. My (failed) goal was to point out the absurdity of that poistion in an unoffensive way. Discussions of religion are off-topic for this list and could be moved to cygwin-talk, or better yet to alt.religion on Usenet. To be clear, my voting position is that I don't think fortune should be removed, but the bug that puts the possibly offensive ones in plaintext should be fixed like any other bug. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
