I work in an office largely populated by born-again Christians, and some of them very definitely object to the BSD logo. Even after I explained the "daemon" thing, they still didn't think BSD should use "The Devil" as its logo.

It IS because of "Bible thumpers". If it weren't for them, we wouldn't be having this discussion.

So is it, "Bible thumpers" equals, born-again Christians? Or could one say that just "Bible thumpers" in general, or maybe "Koran thumpers", or even "Torah thumpers"?

Only my personal experience. In addition to not being comfortable with the BSD logo, a couple of the programmers here didn't like my Ouija-board mouse pad, because they associated it with the occult, and thus The Devil.

I'd like to hear a story of a system administrator who has chosen not to use FreeBSD explicitly because of the logo. That would be way more entertaining. Everyone could learn more about human nature.
