Yep, I'm gone. Michael, Keith, this IS a technology list. Your religious commentary has NO business being discussed.
Michael in particular - arguing on the internet is just annoying for everyone on this list. I've seen more disgusting, bigoted, and hate-filled things come from you, and yet you claim to be a religious person. Grow up. Jesus was not a Christian. His behavior was very different from your behavior. He accepted people as they were with few exceptions. "God protect me from your followers." On 10/9/11, Michael C.
