I find your reply really interesting- and I really think that Ubuntu is something special and it is great that customising is so important to you all- but was it the Christians who thought up using the word Ubuntu? I ask because I noticed in the local church rag- they had a whole sermonette using Ubuntu (the south african word) as the central idea.
