Y'know, I wouldn't even bother responding to this if Xianists were as open, forgiving and accepting as their messiah told them to be. It was a *flippant remark*. If you want to establish intent, aggression and religio-politico-philosophy from every throwaway remark made on the internet, you're not really going to have much time for Python. My belief system isn't your's. Hell, my belief system doesn't even require that I have *any respect whatsoever* for your's. If it's okay for Xianists to "suffer not a witch to live", then I'm going to assert my making light jokes about those whose world view is in direct opposition to mine isn't even comparable to that mentality. from attitude import humour (Since we're already fully derailed here, I've always preferred Borges' suggestion that it was actually Judas who carried the full weight of man's sins, given that his betrayal of Christ and inevitable condemnation to hell was a necessity. Then again, I'm able to safely view this as *allegory* and am genuinely interested in the opinions of modern minds over something first begun by nomads millenia ago...) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
