      Technically it was the Free Software movement that was a form of Leftism, and Open Source was Capitalism’s attempt to subsume it once it became apparent that it was capable of producing better software.

        Maybe unconfigured. Even Jesus Christ wouldn’t be able to handle the Vimscript.

          I’d like to take this opportunity to say that lua as a configuration utility is also a chamber of hell that jesus wouldn’t even want the devil to go to.

            It’s always amusing when the Neovim users pretend to like Lua. It’s not like Emacs Lisp is the best language out there (it’s not, and I’d much rather Emacs was configured in Scheme, they’re working on it…), but at least it’s a good fit, by design, for configuration.

    Jesus would have been too addicted to foot fetish pics online to have any real opinions.

    “Dad wrote TempleOS”

    Do you think modern-day American Jesus’s dad would be a software programer instead of a carpenter?

      Maybe a mechanic. It was a humble, low-education kind of job, but still a step up from working the fields. Actually, I guess it could still be construction.

      (And FWIW, the original Aramaic word applies to both stone and wood workers, and there weren’t a lot of trees in the Nazareth area)

      Sorry for taking your comment way more seriously than of needs to be:

      I’d expect Modern Jesus’ dad would be a welder, which is a well paid and respected field in our time that builds things while still being very blue collar.

      What’s a more interesting thought is about Mary’s uncle. There’s conspiracy theories about Jesus that stem from the potential relationship between Jesus and his granduncle. You see, Mary’s uncle was a Trader, primarily bringing tin from Britannia (modern day Great Britain) to the heart of Rome - he also founded the first Christian church outside of Palestine (coincidentally in the British Isles). Its thought that Jesus apprenticed under this uncle for a long period of time and through that saw much of the “known world”. It also appears to be the origin of the myth that Jesus didn’t actually ascend to heaven after resurrection, but instead dipped to Britain (leading to my favorite line from A Knight’s Tale: “The Pope may be French, but Jesus Christ was English”).

      Most of that last part is besides the point. Chances are, that guy would equate to a tech billionaire, and has a result be the main proselytizer one behalf of a modern Jesus figure.

    Jesus if he was here today: You’re telling me you’re getting rich and getting divorced? Time to flip some more tables…

    Also, if you go by just the “red letters”: WTF, why are you eating shellfish and mixing textiles?

    He was a Judean from the first century AD, and held a mix of ideas that nobody really does anymore.

    sometimes i wonder if jesus today would ask himself if he’d really seen every sin in hell
