Actually, the creator of Typo3, Kasper, is a really cool guy. He is a very passionate and devout Christian and it is only a suggestion that you do not use Typo3 for those types of Web sites. Actually, it is his passion that makes Typo3 so good. He is very devoted to this software and works on it pretty much 24/7. He's always on the Typo3 mailing list helping people out. I'm not trying to influence anyone either way but I just wanted to let people know that Kasper is a very nice guy. :)

A message from the Typo3 creator

"I'm a christian man. To me Typo3 is a piece
of work, which I would like to "return" to
God, my Creator . . . But I will express my
wish that Typo3 is not used to spread
material that is against the word of the Holy
Bible and the human rights. Examples of this
could be, that Typo3 is not used to publish
pornographic and/or sexually derailed material,
nazistic propaganda, newage-publications,
demonic messages and so on."

I respect his right to interject his beliefs
into his software, but honestly I chose not
to use this software because his suggested
Terms of Use are just too creepy for my tastes.
I hope this doesn't start a flamefest . . . I
simply found it interesting.

Tim
